Geet Devnam
My name is Andzelika (Gett Devnam). I am a qualified holistic & sports massage therapist and Kundalini Yoga teacher based in Christchurch in Dorset. I am passionate about empowering others to make positive changes to feel balanced through holistic treatments and yoga.
My path to Kundalini yoga started during my first Kundalini Yoga class when I experienced Kundalini energy to the point I decided to follow that calling and completed Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training in 2023. When I first came across Kundalini Yoga I was searching for an alternative method that works effectively to ease symptoms of trauma and PTSD. Kundalini Yoga works directly on the endocrine system bringing balance to body, mind and spirit. This holistic approach and effectiveness of Kundalini Yoga to restore glandular balance became something that intrigued me as it is a powerful technology of working through the body with emphasis on spirit to realize our true, inner potential.
I recharge best in nature and I believe outdoor location supports body`s healing abilities by nature resourcing therefore I often practise yoga on the beach or in the forest.
I also trained as a Cacao Ceremony Facilitator discovering a healing power of movement medicine. My journey was deeply influenced by 5 Rhythms and I share a passion for dancing being an Ecstatic dance enthusiast and attending conscious dance events.
