Yoga and paddling instructor
Nita Lahnalampi

I offer yoga classes in Kalajoki. I teach simple, calming, powerful, and classic Hatha yoga. I also organize kayaking trips.

I am a RYT 500-hour yoga teacher. In addition, I have completed hundreds of hours of study in non-registered yoga schools.

I have a background in Ashtanga yoga and, while practicing Ashtanga Vinyasa, I also studied Ayurveda (Indian lifestyle science), wild herbs, and Ayurvedic massage with Anitta Korpela in Frantsila during 2014-2015. In 2014, I traveled to India for the first time to study yoga and meditation at the Swami Rama Sadhaka Grama ashram in Rishikesh. My second trip to India was in 2015, when I visited in Kerala to study Ayurveda. I performed Ayurvedic massages in Vasa and Levi from 2014 to 2018.

Welcome to join me in calming and mastering your mind, enjoying the peace and quiet of nature, and embracing all the surprises it has to offer.
