Tanya Georgieva is a Registered Yoga Teacher RYT with Yoga Alliance which acknowledges the completion of a yoga teacher training with a Registered Yoga School RYS Let me first begin by introducing myself I was born and raised in Bulgaria until my thirties where I studied to become a Specialist Pedagogue and Behavioral Psychologist I used my education to work as a school counselor but I was also an adventurer and traveler at heart I have lived in several countries including Germany and the Philippines My travels have also taken me to France Italy Spain United Kingdom Indonesia and Thailand I observed all of the different customs cuisines and rituals of the world but I could never name a favorite They are all unique and that is what makes them truly special So when was I first introduced to yoga? Unofficially when I was -or- year old my father would entertain me and my sister with acrobatic performances and pretzely postures He would sit in lotus pose and walk on his hands or go into a headstand and ask us to perform the same actions Because of our game I grew up thinking yoga was simply about performing cool acrobatic poses—contorting your body into knot-like positions or teasing gravity with a headstand Well that was not all of yoga It wasnt until my freshman year of high school that I revised my view My gym teacher was fascinated by yoga and as a class we began to seek more literature on the subject Growing up in communist Bulgaria such information wasnt very popular or available yet so it was awe-inspiring as we pushed deeper into the practice Thus my advanced journey with yoga began I started by learning Pranayama-breathing and mediation first I liked the fact that through breathing one could control body temperature and heart rate build sleeping patterns and improve concentration I began to see yoga as a lifestyle I discovered discipline and the ability to live in synchronicity with nature through my studies I believe that we evolve daily and therefore our practice does too As for my own method I do consider the seasons of Ayurveda and build my classes accordingly I like to challenge myself with inversions and balancing positions and while everyone has weak spots yoga allows us to push past them I am still perfecting my craft and I have found that yoga teaches us that there is no destination in our path It is the journey that matters.
