Diane was born in Asia, grew up in Africa, and graduated in Europe. She has always been living around the world, and she was originally introduced to Sivananda yoga after having lower back pain following the birth of her daughter. Her interest and love for yoga flourished when she discovered Vinyasa Flow and Ashtanga Mysore Style. After 14 years working in the Oil and Gas Industry, life and her passion for yoga has led her to quit her corporate job. She is a dedicated Ashtangi mysore style practitioner but she also studies modern yoga with Dini Maharani. Having started yoga at 33 years old, she deeply understands and feels how difficult building flexibility, strength and stamina can be. She sees yoga as a bubble of happiness and her students can expect a dynamic, energetic, humble and friendly atmosphere in her class. Diane remains a student of yoga, always learning everyday from her students, her teachers as well as from the day-to-day life.
