About Zana
With vast experience in the Holistic Health field, Zana provides a constellation of classes, workshops and retreats all over the world.
Her events follow a very strong hands-on approach and include a multitude of activities one can apply onsite and on one´s daily life. These activities are drawn from the fields of Yoga, Psychology and Naturopathy.
They are usually run in paradisiacal settings where one would love to live forever, to make the experience even more wonderful.
Some workshops and retreats are organized by herself, while others are requested by health institutes, yoga schools, spas and institutions of various nature. All of them are customized to clients´ needs, settings and time availability.
Zana has always been fascinated by the realm of inner transformation and that paved her personal and professional circuit.
After graduating in Psychology a decade ago she has been globetrotting, living and working in different countries among which Portugal, Holland, UK, Germany, Brazil, USA and India.
This nomadic lifestyle and a touch of serendipity gave her the scope to develop various programmes and initiatives and explore ancient as well as cutting-edge and creative therapy pathways.
Yoga has been part of her life for over 7 years and she is now a certified Hatha and Ashtanga Yoga teacher, going back and forth to India to update her knowledge.
In 2006 she graduated as a Health Educator from the world renowed Hippocrates Health Institute in Florida. This experience deepened her interest, research and practice in the field of nutrition and naturopathy.
