Very powerful teacher. Your teaching is very generous, professional, well structured and interactive. Every student – no matter the level – is considered by you in a very intelligent way to give confidence and courage. You give lots of elements to the home practice as well which is absolutely great. You are able to boost the students in all possible ways; physical as well as spiritual way. This has been a surprising retreat, third for me. Your knowledge of yoga and your capacity to integrate harmoniously important elements from other sciences (fascial therapy, connective tissue, lymphatic system, Ayurveda, marma point massage..), is amazing. You are a big gift to all your students, Elena Thank you.

I enjoyed EVERYTHING!
I enjoyed your capacity to adapt to the group with the programme that is always varied. This is an amazing place for a yoga retreat! Hotel, the landscape, yoga space, everything is perfect. This second time participating in the mountain retreat was just an great as the first. You are a unique person with a set of talents that allow you to bring forth your own style of yoga (professionalism, tone of the voice that mesmerizes, your own music) We couldn’t be happier to have had the possibility to join this retreat and can’t wait to come back in July. Namaste!
I loved the peacefulness and the beautiful surroundings. Elena explained what yoga poses meant – always interesting to hear about the benefits of yoga poses. The location was beautiful, staff very friendly.
Sparkling Yoga offers a unique experience. Keep yoga and meditation classes in amazing locations. From Iceland, Swiss Alps, Swedish forest to Moroccan desert and Bali jungle paradise will leave you energized, glowing and renewed.
I’m back home safe and still smiling after the wonderful experience. I just wanted to thank you for such a great retreat, and all the dedicated work you put in to make it so enjoyable for everyone. I loved the yoga sessions – they were exactly the right combination of challenging, new, fulfilling and relaxing. I just don’t know how you do it! Wonderful teacher, Elena – enthusiasm, knowledge, calmness, balance. The flow classes are new to me + very interesting (but hard!) The location and the hotel were amazing too – I am completely refreshed by the mountain air, the scenery, and the company of such lovely and interesting people. Also, I have found some of your recordings on Spotify and I’m planning to relax after work this evening with a yoga nidra. Your voice is so calm and soothing! Thanks too for the CD of your music. It is beautiful. Just beautiful.

I recently participated in Sparkling Yoga’s Switzerland retreat in the gorgeous Swiss Alps. This was my first retreat and although I didn’t have any expectations nor comparisons, everything was more than I had wished for. The location was breathtaking, the hotel and its facilities were perfect. Elena put a lot of effort into making this retreat wonderful. Her classes were challenging yet she provided an atmosphere were I felt safe to make and play with my own physical and mental boundaries. I am already recommending Elena and Sparkling Yoga’s future retreats to friends.
Very professional teaching and the teacher. Loved your guided meditations. A beautiful hotel!
