Authorized Level 2 Teacher from SYC, Mysore Program Teacher at Sarvam Yoga
Alignment, Adjustment, Teaching Methodology and Techniques
Seeking balance between body and mind, Nathalie Njeim, widely known as Nat-on-the-mat, began her yoga journey in Dubai in 2008. Like many, she explored various yoga styles before discovering a profound connection with the Ashtanga Yoga tradition. This discipline became the cornerstone of her practice, helping her develop focus, balance, coordination, and physical-mental awareness.
After six years of rigorous practice, Nathalie deepened her knowledge by attending workshops led by internationally acclaimed instructors such as Joanne and Mark Darby, Kino MacGregor, David Robson, Arne Espejel, Petri Räisänen, Flora Brajot, Gibran Gonzalez, and Samuel Brown. Her dedication to the tradition led her to Mysore, India, where she repeatedly returned to study at the source of Ashtanga Yoga under the guidance of Paramaguru Sharath Jois.
In 2022, after thirteen years of practice and ten years of teaching experience, Nathalie became the only Lebanese Authorized Level II Ashtanga Teacher. Her expertise, with a strong emphasis on alignment and technique, offers students invaluable tools to refine their practice, improve precision, and connect more deeply with the Ashtanga method.
