Yoga for Moms: Unwind, Reconnect and Thrive
Hello!
I’m Viktoria—a yoga teacher, mom of two, and on a mission to sprinkle some yoga magic into the lives of fellow moms and families.
My yoga journey began as a remedy for my desk-job back pain around 2013. I quickly discovered that yoga isn’t just beneficial for the body; it’s a fantastic tool for managing stress too.
In 2015, things took a big turn in my life: my husband secured a job in Brussels, so we decided to move with our first baby on the way. I was truly scared of the shifts—being abroad solo with a baby and knowing so little—that I decided to join a pre-and postnatal yoga teacher training.
These trainings played a significant role in shaping my experience of motherhood, pregnancy and childbirth.It equipped me with invaluable knowledge, preparing both my body and mind for the transformative process. The time with our first son was truly magical, marked by playful experimentation with little yoga games and evening massage rituals.
In 2018, kids’ yoga entered my world, adding heaps of joy and helping me understand how movement shapes little minds.
However, the major turning point came when I enrolled in the Yogalife 200-hour yoga teacher training in Brussels in 2020, amidst the challenges of the COVID pandemic and caring for two children. It was during this time that I believe I truly grasped the essence of yoga.
It resonated with me so deeply that despite my background in economics, I felt compelled to share it. Slowly and with uncertain steps, I began teaching.
Since then I have kept going:), kept learning and digging deeper into yoga, —Yoga Nidra (60hrs), Yoga Anatomy (100 hrs), Yin and Yang Yoga (150 hrs), Yin Yoga and organ’s health (50 hrs), Antastha Yoga ( 100 hrs)—deepening my practice and teaching. In 2023, I took on an assisting role in training prospective yoga teachers at Yogalife in Brussels.
Right now, I’m continuing my own yoga journey, extending beyond the mat into real-life experiences, with the invaluable support of my family.
