Teacher/Teachings

How Anna became a yoga teacher is a rather remarkable story: more than a decade ago, the young adventurer decided to pack her bags and leave her beloved hometown St Petersburg behind. Anna ventured out all by herself, hoping to find new, exciting opportunities. She explored exotic cultures, interesting lifestyles and braved different challenges every day.
The moment her lucky path crossed the one of yoga and meditation, Anna knew it was going to change her life forever. Following this new route, she entered deep into various styles of practices and trained to become a qualified yoga teacher and massage therapist. Her passionate journey full of joy and devotion continues to shape Anna’s everyday life and those of her students alike, with the aim to connect the heart, mind and body.
Anna’s teaching mirrors her uplifting character: she has a wonderfully heart-felt, mindful, patient and humorous personality. As a natural part of her daily life she has been practising yoga for almost 10 years now and loves to teach all levels and different styles of yoga.

Her teaching started after the completion of her Kundalini Yoga teaching course at the Sivananda Yoga ashram in India where she also continued further practices. Anna also participated in several 10-day Vipassana silent meditation courses in Sri Lanka, as a student and volunteer alike.

Anna’s interest in the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda took her to Hyderabad in India where she completed an Ayurvedic Therapist course at the Ananda Spa Institute in 2015. The same year she absolved an intense one-on-one Thai Massage training for four weeks in Chiang Mai. She has since worked as a fully qualified Massage Therapist and Yoga Instructor for clients Saraii Village Hotel, Sri Lanka

What students say about Anna’s practice:

’’The yoga teacher Anna was so lovely, and our twice daily yoga and meditation sessions, tailored to us were peaceful and fulfilling.’’

"Beautiful mindful yoga she provides a personalised experience by adjusting to the pace and ability of the students. She is also a fabulous person with a beautiful energy.’’

Facilities

Crocohouse Beach Villa is a newly completed, gorgeous, three-bedroom beach shack located steps away from the beach. As the waves crash, you feel the ocean breeze against your skin. If you are looking to be stress-free, enjoy the sound of the ocean and surrounding nature, Croco is your perfect escape!Just in front of the ocean, far away from the Arugambay tourists crowd. Only pure beach, blue water and sky as far as your eyes can go!
The main surfing spot is 20 minutes walk to the left from the villa. And beautiful Crocodile and Elephants Rocks 20 minutes walk to the right.
We have a super equipped kitchen for you to cook, bikes to explore surroundings or reach a town, comfy open lounge area, hammocks with an ocean view!
There are three double rooms upstairs, with a king size bed and terrace with a hammock. One sharing bathroom, open shower, kitchen and lounge area are downstairs.
Towels and toiletries are provided, daily housekeeping services.

Boasting a magnificent view of Ella Rock, Little Adam’s Peak, and Ravana Waterfall, Mamma Shanti makes the ideal getaway for a yoga and meditation retreat. We welcome in each person not as a guest but as a fellow dweller sharing in our secluded spot of serenity for as long as they choose. Our house is comfortable and intimate offering all the lushness of modern amenities with the wildness of Sri Lanka growing on our doorstep.
We offer two luxury, en-suite double rooms. Each is kitted with its own private wrap around balcony, hot water shower, and quite possibly the biggest bed you’ve ever had the pleasure of sinking into.

Food

During this retreat, you will be served three delicious locally sourced meals including a special traditional Sri Lankan breakfast by the lake and lunch with the village family. The authentic Sri Lankan meals are from a seasonal menu that is decided by what is growing in the local garden, what is selling at the local market, and what can be found locally. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner can be an abundant spread of local fruit, traditional Sri Lankan curries and salads, lots of bread and rice, and even a Western spread for those who don't favor the spicy cuisine. Please inform us about any food preferences and we will make all arrangements.

Testimonials

Testimonials:

"Very inspiring and full of love for life and Yoga
Anna truly made those ten days as well as the rest of my Sri Lanka trip what it finally became: relaxing, educating, motivating and fun. But most of all: by her very nature Anna was able to make me open up to the spiritual side of Yoga as well, not just the athletic part"
Philipp Becher

"A true guide and teacher
My daughter and I did a 4 day yoga retreat with Anna a couple of months ago. Anna's patience and guidance were outstanding. I am 67 years old and she was flexible enough to accommodate the asanas to my ability. Anna's meditation sessions were a treat as she is a warm happy spiritual being . I wish her all the success she deserves" Dipa Motwane

"Anna is a very lovely and attentive person. She paid attention to everything during my stay with her. I just had to enjoy and relax. She is not only an excellent yoga instructor but also a very good tour guide and an amazing friend :)"
Fanni Takács

"I did a 5 day retreat and really loved it. It was exactly what I needed and everything was so professional and personal - excellent experience. Thank you so much for such a great experience"
