I help scientists thrive and not merely survive on their journey to discovery,

harnessing Yoga as a catalyst for greater resilience, clarity and balance.


I’m Ksenia, a former scientist turned yoga teacher passionate about helping stressed-out scientists and academics find peace, balance, and a renewed love for their work.

I’ve walked the same path you’re on now. The long hours, the constant pressure to publish, the worry about short-term contracts or lack of funding, and the overwhelming stress that often comes with a scientific career. I know what it feels like to be trapped in a cycle of perfectionism and anxiety, questioning your passion and choices.

For the last few years of my scientific career, Yoga has been my sanctuary - a way to ease physical tension and manage stress, but also ultimately a path towards reconnecting with myself and rediscovering my purpose.

And I know Yoga can be all that - and more - for you too. I am here to help you navigate the pressures of academia, find harmony in your life and work and reclaim your curiosity and excitement that brought you to science in the first place.

My story

What if...

  • the vicious cycle of perfectionism, procrastination and anxiously scrambling to meet deadlines was a thing of the past?
  • you could be mindfully productive when working, and able to switch off at the end of the day - guilt-free?
  • you could wave goodbye to "Sunday scaries" and feelings of anxiety and dread about your workplace or workload?
  • reconnecting with your curiosity and passion for discovery was just one breath away - even if you feel like you've completely fallen out of love with science?
  • we could collectively reshape academia, inspiring a culture where self-care and work-life balance are not just empty buzzwords but are recognised as integral components of success?

"Ksenia's yoga classes help me to take care of my mind and my body in a very gentle way. The atmosphere in her classes is warm and her pleasant voice is very calming. As an academic, I appreciate that Ksenia has a similar background and understands my struggles without any extra explanations. This was a huge help for me in managing my stress during my PhD."
