A Teacher Shaped by Experience, Not Theory

Irina is a Zürich-based yoga teacher, health coach, and retreat facilitator whose work has grown from lived experience rather than abstract philosophy.

 

Before entering the world of wellbeing, she spent almost a decade in luxury hospitality and corporate leadership — environments that demanded constant output, perfectionism, and emotional endurance. Over time, this pace pushed her nervous system into burnout and triggered hyperthyroidism. What felt like a collapse became the doorway into a completely different life.

 

Her healing did not arrive through one modality, one mentor, or one “method,” but through a slow, intuitive process of rebuilding from the inside out: detoxification, Ayurvedic principles, nervous-system regulation, breathwork, sound healing, and a daily yoga practice that served not as fitness, but as grounding.

 

She became her own case study — learning directly from her symptoms, her limits, her body’s intelligence, and the moments her system finally exhaled.

​

This is why her teaching today carries clarity, precision, and empathy: she has walked the terrain herself.

 

Her students often say that what she offers is not wellness — it is nervous system restoration wrapped in honesty and warmth.

Yoga, Health Coaching, Breathwork & Sound
— A Unified Approach

Irina’s work weaves together multiple modalities, each strengthening the others. Nothing she offers stands alone; everything is interconnected.

Yoga in Zürich
& Online
Irina teaches seasonal yoga classes and one-to-one sessions in Zürich from April to October, offering vinyasa flow, slow meditative movement, restorative yoga, yin, and inner-awareness practice.
Her approach is breath-led, intuitive, and intentionally un-performative. Students often experience her classes as a return to themselves — a space to slow down, regulate, and reconnect.
She also teaches online, supporting students who want consistency year-round.

Health & Detox
Coaching

Coaching which emerged naturally from her own healing journey.
 

Irina supports clients through detoxification, iridology assessments, dietary shifts, herbal support, and personalised long-term programmes.
 

Her speciality lies in helping people understand the “why” behind their symptoms, empowering them to become active participants in their own regeneration.

Breathwork

 

Irina offers group and private breathwork in Zürich and online, blending CCB training from Alchemy of Breath with Eastern pranayama practices she learned in India.

​

Her sessions are grounding, emotional, and supportive — helping clients release stress, soften armour, and reconnect with the body’s natural intelligence.

Sound
Healing

 

Using Tibetan bowls collected across India, Nepal and Bali, Irina brings sound as medicine into her yoga classes, private sessions, and retreats.

​

She often combines yin yoga with sound to deepen release through fascia, memory, and emotional layers.

From Corporate Leadership to Wellbeing Guide

Irina’s background places her in a rare position:

she understands high-performance culture from the inside.

 

She knows what it means to push past exhaustion, to override signals, to carry a nervous system that never switches off.

​

This understanding shapes the way she teaches — gently, clearly, and practically.

 

Her corporate offerings focus not on performance but on nervous-system literacy: tools that are simple, repeatable, and regulation-focused.

 

Students often say she bridges two worlds effortlessly:
the groundedness of holistic work and the clarity of someone who understands real-life pressure.

Retreats in Bali, Greece & Across Europe

Retreats are where all of Irina’s modalities come together — movement, breath, sound, detox philosophy, and deep rest.

Her retreats are not packed schedules; they are immersive, nurturing, and intentionally spacious.

 

Participants often describe them as:

“a reset I didn’t know I needed,”

“the first time I felt my body relax in years,”

or “coming home to myself.”

 

Her long-term vision is to establish a retreat centre in Greece — a calm, nature-backed sanctuary where people can arrive exhausted and leave restored.

A Philosophy Centred on

Authenticity and Regulation

At the heart of Irina’s teaching is a simple, steady philosophy:

Embodiment matters more than performance

Practice must be lived, not just learned

Her presence reflects this: warm, steady, intuitive, and grounded.

She teaches the way she lives — through practice, not performance.

 

Students describe her as attentive, reassuring, emotionally intelligent.

Clients describe her as clear, intuitive, and able to see the whole system at once.

“I finally feel like myself again.”

"After years of thyroid imbalance, bloating, insomnia and crushing fatigue, I didn’t believe healing was possible. Irina not only guided me through detox — she guided me back into trust with my own body. Her clarity, precision and warmth made me feel safe in a process that had always scared me. My inflammation is gone, my cycles normalised, and I have energy I haven’t felt in a decade."
