Elena Kormanovskaya (Kormanovská)
300hr Certified
Prague
Czech Republic

Elena discovered yoga in 2015 when she was looking for a balanced physical activity after recovering from a serious illness. She started practicing with YouTube videos, and a few months later, she visited a yoga studio for the first time. It was a Jivamukti Spiritual Warrior class led by Nada Brzobohatá in Brno, Czech Republic. From that moment, Jivamukti yoga became her main source of inspiration for many years.
Throughout her journey in the Czech Republic, Elena met many great Jivamukti teachers, including Lenka Knag, Martina Procházková, Šárka Vojáčková, and Petra Pikkelová. A significant milestone that deeply influenced her perspective was a workshop in Prague with Petros Haffenrichter in 2021. His teachings, presence, and energy were so inspiring that in 2022, Elena successfully completed the 75-hour JYTT in Barcelona with Olga Oskorbina and Mitch Burnett.

Later, in 2023, Elena joined the 300-hour online JYTT in Italy with Camilla Veen and Moritz Ulrich, with Mitch Burnett as her mentor.

Now, Elena actively teaches Jivamukti Open classes and Jivamukti Spiritual Warrior classes in Prague. She also participates in Jivamukti workshops, joyfully sharing and spreading the Jivamukti method within the community. Elena strongly believes that the body is the key to our deeper nature, which is why she wholeheartedly embraces a holistic approach in her classes, where the Jivamukti method serves as her primary instrument.
