Elodie Covella

I was born and raised in Luxembourg. I have two great loves in my life, which are dancing and yoga. I did Ballet and Jazz dance when I was growing up and continued the latter into my late teenage years. I was passionate about dancing from the start and loved expressing myself through movement. I went on to learn Ballroom and Latin partner dance at university where I discovered my true passion, salsa dancing. Maybe this was where my fascination for Central and South America originated from and I started to dream about travelling to this continent one day and learn everything about it.

Throughout my twenties I came in touch with yoga several times, but never completely dedicated my life to it until I suffered a traumatic incident at the beginning of 2018. Shortly afterwards, I traveled to Sri Lanka and learned more about Buddhism, which completely changed my perspective on life. This was also where I discovered my love for meditation and yoga, which developed into a passion, a way of life.

I had previously done my studies in England, where I had graduated with a degree in English and American literature and was working as an English teacher in Luxembourg for 9 years when I did my first 200-hour Multi-style Yoga Teacher Training on the island of Mallorca. I remember teaching my first class and coming to the realisation that this was what I was supposed to be doing with my life. That same year, I decided to pack up my life into a backpack, leave Luxembourg and travel to South America, where I did my second 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Tantra, Arts & Shamanism in Quito, Ecuador.

I was travelling through South America for almost a year, when I decided to come back to Luxembourg to visit my friends and family. I finally ended up staying here and becoming a full-time yoga teacher and love getting up every day to share my passion with my students and the world. Yoga has changed my life in so many ways and I hope that through transmitting and sharing what I have learned, I can help you improve your life with the help of this magical practice, too.
