Vula Bolou s a traveling Yoga teacher. A native Greek but a Londoner-at-heart as this is where she grew up. Her passion is to discover new places, connect with the locals and identify retreat possibilities worldwide. India is high up on the list (where she whisks off to for long train journeys every so often) with Greece a close second. Vula began teaching Iyengar Yoga in 2000. She holds the highest teaching certification in Greece and the Balkans (Junior Intermediate Level 3). She has been a direct student of BKS Iyengar in Pune India, as well as a senior pupil of Guruji worldwide. Vula has a dynamic and flowing teaching style. Her dedication to Guruji’s teachings, as well as her experience in Pune, enables her to assist in a precise and individual manner. Her vibrancy and passion have inspired a variety of students from different backgrounds and age groups to come to Iyengar Yoga and stay. Vula has a BSc in chemistry and an MSc in computing. Her science background enables her to connect to the more analytical and precision-focused aspect of Iyengar Yoga, which she finds both challenging and meaningful. In Guruji’s words, “When I practice I am a philosopher, when I teach I am a scientist, when I demonstrate I am an artist”.
