TANTRA & HATHA YOGA TEACHER
Alyona is a medical doctor, tantra, yoga and meditation teacher, whose path bridges western science with the embodied wisdom of the tantric tradition.
With a foundation in medicine and physiotherapy, she began her journey in rehabilitation centers in Ukraine, working with the body through a clinical lens. Over time, this evolved into a deeper exploration of healing — moving beyond symptom treatment into energy, consciousness, and inner transformation.
Her path is rooted in over 15 years of dedicated study within traditional Shaiva and Virashaiva lineages of India, guided by direct transmission, personal sadhana, and devotion to the tantric worldview. She has studied with teachers connected to the lineage of Krishnamacharya in India, as well as modern schools of yoga and tantra.
Alongside her medical background, Alyona integrates a strong psychological foundation, including somatic trauma work (Peter Levine), Gestalt therapy, and Integral Psychology — allowing her to work with the body, mind, and subconscious patterns in a deeply holistic way.
As the founder of Shanti Yoga Studio and teacher at Shanti Training School of Yoga Therapy, she has been holding spaces for transformation for many years — guiding students through tantra retreats, conscious events, and intimate work with individuals and couples across Ukraine, Europe, and Bali.
Her teaching weaves together embodied tantra, classical yoga, breathwork, and modern therapeutic awareness — creating a space where practice becomes a living experience of energy, presence, and inner awakening.
