Elena Voss is the heart and soul behind Lotus & Light. A certified yoga therapist with over 12 years of experience, Elena's journey into yoga began modestly, seeking solace and strength during a challenging period in her life. What started as a personal practice quickly transformed into a lifelong passion and a calling to share its profound benefits with others.
Her insatiable curiosity led her to Rishikesh, India, the birthplace of yoga, where she underwent rigorous training, immersing herself in the ancient traditions and philosophies. This foundational experience shaped her holistic approach, emphasizing not just the physical postures (asanas) but also breathwork (pranayama), meditation, and ethical living.
Elena founded Lotus & Light with a vision to create a welcoming space where individuals could explore their potential, foster genuine connections, and cultivate inner peace. Her teaching style is known for its warmth, clarity, and adaptability, making yoga accessible and empowering for every body and mind. She believes that yoga is for everyone, regardless of age, background, or physical ability, and she is committed to guiding her community towards a path of wellness and self-discovery.
"Lotus & Light has been a true sanctuary for me. Elena's classes are thoughtfully crafted, challenging yet incredibly grounding. I've found a sense of peace and belonging here that I cherish."
"As a beginner, I was nervous, but the welcoming atmosphere and supportive instructors quickly put me at ease. My strength and flexibility have improved dramatically, and my stress levels have plummeted."
"The meditation sessions are a game-changer. I leave feeling refreshed and ready to tackle my day with a clear mind. It's truly a gem in Amsterdam's busy city life."
