About Me

Hi, I'm Simla 👋🏻

​

I’ve always been passionate about sports and physical activity. From a young age, I played a variety of team sports like basketball, volleyball, and handball, and today I continue to enjoy beach volleyball several times a week. The experience of being part of a team, supporting each other on the court, has taught me invaluable lessons that I apply in all aspects of life.

​

Another lifelong passion of mine is traveling. I was born in Germany and raised in Turkey, so from an early age, I was immersed in the unique cultures of both countries. Traveling between them, I began to appreciate both the differences and similarities, and I often thought, "If these two cultures offer so much to explore, imagine what the rest of the world has to offer!" This curiosity led me to live in various countries, learn from different cultures, and experience the world in a deeper way. 🌍

​

My journey into yoga began at the age of 19 when I started practicing to relieve back pain. Initially, it was just about stretching, but I soon discovered that yoga offered so much more—it calmed my mind, shifted my emotions, and helped me find an inner anchor.

​

Over the past 10 years, I’ve deepened my practice and knowledge through various trainings of several disciplines like Vinyasa, Yin, Navakarana, meditation, and Ayurveda.

​

 I’ve been teaching yoga since 2018. I share what I known with passion as a teacher and still enjoy taking the students seat continuously.

​

Currently, I’m based in sunny Valencia, where I teach and share my passion for yoga in classes, workshops, and retreats. ☀️

​

I offer , regular classes  which are essential for building a strong foundation—whether you're a beginner or an advanced practitioner. It’s in these classes that you develop a connection with your teacher and cultivate your practice over time.

​

 

Workshops, on the other hand, are perfect for those who want to deepen their practice in a short but focused burst. It’s an opportunity for intense learning and growth.

​

Retreats provide the ideal setting to reconnect with yourself. Surrounded by nature, nourishing food, and like-minded people, retreats offer a chance to recharge, practice yoga, and share meaningful moments together.

 

See you on the Mat very soon!
