Maya Lindvall

Growing up in Sweden, Maya's mom introduced her to yoga and qigong when she was young.Later, in 2019, Maya rediscovered yoga and felt like she found her place. She decided to learn more by attending her first yoga teacher training course at Shambhala in 2021. Since then, she's been working with yoga full-time, teaching various classes like chair yoga for seniors with dementia and teenagers with disabilities, as well as vinyasa and yin classes at gyms and studios.What Maya really loves about yoga is how it can help people heal. This passion led her to take a specialized training in trauma-informed yoga in 2022. Since then, she's been teaching this kind of yoga to children who have escaped from Ukraine.In 2024, it was time for her to achieve her 300 hours certification, which earned her a RYT500.Creating a genuine and inclusive atmosphere in her classes is very important to Maya. She wants her students to feel safe and supported as they explore their own paths of self-discovery.Maya will be sharing her knowledge during January 2025 and the summer of 2025.
