Lala began her yoga practice in 2015 in search of a way to lose weight. At the time she was working at a hostel that provided a variety of yoga classes. Choosing Ashtanga as her first class was challenging and overwhelming but didn’t scare her away, she came back for beginner classes to work her way back to Ashtanga. Before she knew it, this physical exercise became a gateway to meditation, chanting, and changing her diet and she began to wonder what was beyond the asana practice. Lala trained with the Peaceful Warriors in August 2017 and describes being a peaceful warrior as respecting that yoga has many different approaches, staying humble and keeping an open mind, challenging the limits but remaining at peace with whatever comes. Currently, she is teaching Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, and Ashtanga in Canggu, Bali. In January 2020 Lala went to India to complete her 300hr Yoga Teacher Training to deepen her understanding and develop both her practice and teaching. Pranayama is Lala’s favourite practice to incorporate into her classes.

Coming from a lineage of Javanese healers, Avi is offering vibrational therapy in Alam Farma’s serene healing space in Umalas, Bali. As a shamanic and yoga practitioner, she works with Color, Sound & Movement.

Most of this modern-day Dis-ease comes from an unbalanced relationship between our body, mind & spirit. Through vibrational therapy, we get in touch with the subtle bodies, acknowledging the imbalances in that space, to then slowly bring balance and wellness to the whole being through the use of soft elemental sounds, color therapy and sound acupuncture. If needed movement and/or yoga therapy will also be prescribed.

Avi is trained in Yoga through the Shri Vidya Lineage, she is also trained by the father of Vibrational Therapy, Fabien Maman as well as an ongoing student of Michael Harner’s Foundation for Shamanic Studies. She holds private yoga classes and yoga therapy consultations, as well as healing others through Sound, Color & Movement, online and in person in Bali.
