ABOUT ME

I didn’t start out as a professional Yoga Teacher.
For years I have practiced yoga along with my other outdoor sports activities. I have a background in dancing (tap dance, jazz, contemporary and ballet), ensemble and gymnastics, technical swimming, tai-chi and capoeira.  The love I feel for the sea since I was a child, led me to get involved more so I have become a SSI Level 3 certified free-diver.


In the past, I have worked as a full-time graphic designer in advertising companies and public services as well as a free-lancer. Thus, I have spent days and nights on my computer screen having been involved with very creative things in the digital arts' world, as my heart wished for those days, although I had to struggle to find the right balance between my work, my family and my practice. After years of hard work and perseverance, I have finally developed a lifestyle that works for me.

I have successfully completed the 500hr Hatha / Vinyasa Yoga teacher training course (Tanya Popovitz, Shri Gaia Institute), including 50hr Yin Yoga and 50hr Meditation, certified by Yoga Alliance (ID 290597).  I also trained to teach Unnata® Aerial Yoga (Tanya Popovitz, Swaha Yoga Center, Athens, Greece). Since then, I've continued exploring the various aspects of yoga and have trained in Myofascial Yoga, Traditional Yoga Nidra & Tantra Yoga Nidra, certified by Spiros Kapnias Garudananda (Garuda Yoga Academy, Patras, Greece). I have participated in various yoga teacher training workshops such as  Yoga for Scoliosis with Elise Browning Miller.

 

I am a 2nd degree Usui Reiki healing practitioner - my space and my intentions are always purified and protected by the Reiki energy.

I believe in living a full life; full of joy and gratitude, free of judgment. My feelings inform me and guide my teaching, which is focused on helping my students become aware and establish a balanced connection between their mind and body, while at the same time, feeling good and relaxed.

My goal is to offer physical and mental conditioning programs that suit the health needs and fitness experiences of everyone.

YOGA AND THE SEA

The vastness and beauty of the Sea

is composed of infinite individual waves.
Like the story of life as a whole
is composed of endless individual life stories.


Each one's personal journey,

every place we 've stood,
all our past thoughts and actions,

and all the upcoming experiences

that we continue creating, 

as each day greetings us

with beauty, challenge and possibility

All is One

"If your are searching for a passionate, professional yoga instructor look no further, Christiana Manta is a treasure. I recently completed her 6 week Zoom session ”Now Yoga Begins” and was totally impressed by Christiana’s dedication and philosophy to yoga. I have been practicing for many years and she is one of the best instructors I ever had."
