"A true teacher does not teach you; she does not see you as inherently separate from her, or less than her.
She simply reflects back your own inner knowing, and reminds you of the vastness of your being.
She is a mirror, a signpost.
And love is the space in which all of this is possible; (...)." ~ Jeff Foster
Selina Gullery (BA Trinity College, Dublin) is a qualified linguist, yoga teacher trainer and student of life.
Yoga for her is a holistic approach to leading a conscious and responsible life, in tune with the rhythms of nature and with each other.
She is fortunate to have learnt with inspiring teachers from both a traditional lineage and more contemporary approach to Yoga.
Her yoga classes are informed with her passion for psychology, somatic movement, music and poetry. She imparts her knowledge with insight drawn from decades of study and practice.
In her Teacher Trainings, in classes and on retreat, she encourages the growth of the spiritual and individual self in her students, through cultivating self-love, embracing imperfections and residing in the gentle strength of the higher Self.
Selina spends most of her time either in nature, on her yoga mat, in the kitchen creating dishes, in deep meditation or travelling to teach from her home base in Sofia, Bulgaria.
She is happy to be a regular guest teacher at the following festivals:
Chamonix Yoga festival, France
Geneva Yoga Festival, Switzerland
Aix en Provence Yoga Festival, France
Udaya Live Festival, Bulgaria
Bali Spirit Festival (assistant), Indonesia
Boom Festival, Portugal
Cologne Yoga Festival (assistant), Germany
Avoriaz Yoga Festival, France

"Every yoga practice should flow like a good story, with a beginning, a middle, and an end that takes the class to a new and different awareness, experience, or ability." (Maty Ezraty)
