Yoga Class

Ann Arbor Yoga and Meditation founder and director, Ema Stefanova is a highly skilled and experienced master teacher. She comes from a family of natural yogis, and healers and holds degrees in Engineering as well as English Language and Literature. Her teaching, yoga therapy and meditation are inspired by her miraculous yoga and meditation life journey and the direct guidance by senior swamis in the health, spirituality and research oriented lineage of Swami Satyananda Paramahansa (Swamiji) and the Bihar School of Yoga. Ema has selflessly shared the wealth of this high level knowledge working with private yoga therapy, Olympic athletes and other individual and corporate clients, training and mentoring teachers, and leading retreats locally, at SW Lake Michigan, in Europe and Mexico. Ema's unique and gentle teaching style inspires, heals and changes lives.

Ema's work has been featured on National TV (health programs, Winter 2006) and in the Crazy Wisdom Journal (spring 2005 issue), Ann Arbor Business Review (Jan 2007), and the International Journal of Yoga Therapy (Jan 2007), as well as Ann Arbor Lifestyle Magazine Issue 6 Vol.2, and Body Mind Spirit Guide magazine (September 2008) and more.

Ema has authored teacher training curricula, teacher manuals, Beginner Yoga and Breathing videos, Yoga Nidra, Meditation and other audio, e-books, articles and other educational materials and art.

Holistic Classical Yoga and Meditation?

Holistic classical yoga and meditation we teach is an authentic, highly effective and user friendly system of yoga and meditation. It has been used in workplaces, schools, and hospitals in Europe, Australia and the rest of the world for over sixty years. It abounds in published research and other works. It is disseminated by transmission of energy from master/qualified yoga teacher, to student or yoga therapy client. It is easy to understand and do the practices, from posture sequences with breath awareness and visualization to client specific guided Yoga Nidra Relaxation and various forms of meditation (Dyana Yoga), as well as Private Yoga Therapy for physical and mental wellbeing.
