About Joanna

Welcome – I’m so glad you’re here. This is a little window into my journey and the heart behind AjnaYoga.

Hello, I’m Joanna:)

​Yoga, music, traveling, snow, candles, and tea are some of the things I love. And of course, my family – my two kids and husband.


I was born and raised in Athens, Greece, and moved to beautiful Switzerland with my family almost six years ago. I have always been active and curious about learning, and challenging myself is what drives me.
I began dancing ballet at the age of 3, still dancing, and also played tennis for a while. Besides yoga, I love Pilates and practice it regularly. Yoga, Ayurveda, and using candles during my practice and at home have helped me through difficult times and contributed to changing and improving my life.

My journey

Yoga found me in a time of transition and quickly became more than just a practice – it became a way of living, healing, and connecting with my own essence.

From Yoga to Holistic Practices

The desire to bring more simplicity, health, and awareness into everyday life led me to train in several holistic modalities:

  • Yoga (for adults, teens, and children)

  • Sound Healing (including Tibetan sound massage & group sound baths)

  • Ayurvedic Nutrition

  • Thai Yoga Massage

Each path has deepened my understanding of the body, mind, and the subtle energy that connects us all.

Teaching & Sharing

I teach and guide from experience, honesty, and a place of presence. I believe that healing starts with awareness and is nurtured through stillness, movement, and breath.

My aim is to offer you a safe and grounded space to explore, release, and reconnect.

AjnaYoga

Ajna is a Sanskrit word which means "command", "perceive", or "beyond wisdom" and is pronounced like "ARG-nya".

In Yoga, Ajna is s the 6th chakra (energy center), or third eye, which is located between the eyes, behind the eyebrow center. Simply put, it is our inner teacher, the center of intuition and insight. ​I believe that every single one of us has an inner guide, and the practices of Yoga and Ayurveda are here to help us in re-establishing our connection with our inner guidance and wisdom.

Namaste and hope to see you in one of my classes soon!
