Monika began practising yoga in 2012 after moving to Cambridge, and over the years it has become an integral part of her life — a practice of reconnection and inner discovery. In 2021, she completed the Cambridge Barefoot Body Yoga Teacher Training programme, qualifying to teach Hatha Yoga, Restorative Yoga, and Yoga Nidra.
Her classes are rooted in the belief that yoga is not something to strive for, but something to uncover — a way of coming home to ourselves. Monika teaches adults and teens in a variety of settings, always aiming to empower her students to find their own route to well-being.
Alongside her teaching, Monika is a practising artist, working from her home studio in Newnham. Her abstract paintings explore themes of movement, thought, and interconnectedness — the same philosophy she brings to her classes. She continues to study Yogic philosophy, weaving its timeless wisdom into her teaching to inspire curiosity, reflection, and gentle growth.
