Olga

Olga has spent her adult life inside Yoga and Buddhism, and it shows in how she works: slowly, precisely and with attention to what your body is doing. More than twenty years of practice sit behind every session, and none of it is announced. She trained under Sri Dharma Mittra, studying with him since 2007 and teaching full time at the Dharma Yoga Center in New York. She holds 200-hour and 500-hour Registered Dharma Yoga Teacher certifications.

From 2016 to 2024, Olga lived and served at Karma Triyana Dharmachakra Monastery in Upstate New York under Venerable Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche, completing a traditional three-and-a-half-year sealed retreat and an additional twelve-month solitary silent meditation retreat.

She came to this from medical science, massage and bioenergetics, and from studies at the Barbara Brennan School of Healing, and she brings movement, touch, breath and energy work into the same room. She also cooks, and she treats food as part of the work rather than a break from it.
