Align Body, Mind, Soul

About me

My name is Eva Estlander, and I am a wellness entrepreneur dedicated to empowering others to find balance, vitality, and joy in their lives.

I am a Yoga Alliance Certified yoga teacher (RYT 200), sound bath facilitator and an educator and international retreat leader. I teach fluently in four languages: Finnish, Swedish, English, and Spanish.

Some of my many passions include yoga and wellness and diving into the world of spirituality, as well as self development. I am a firm believer in kindness and that what you put out is what you’ll get in. Everything is energy.

I grew up in Helsinki, Finland, but always felt drawn to the beach lifestyle. After graduating with a Master’s Degree in Economics from the Swedish School of Economics, I decided to change my life completely. I packed my bags, left my marketing job, and moved to the other side of the world, to a little beach town called Sayulita on the Pacific coast of Mexico. While writing my thesis about wellness tourism and customer behavior, I founded a surf & yoga retreat company, discovering my love for branding in the process.

After well over 6 years in the tropics, running yoga retreats, working with wedding and event production, as well as working for a big luxury hotel, I finally decided to repack my bags and head back home to the North. I am now based out of Helsinki, Finland, however I still host retreats in my other home of Sayulita.

I facilitate retreats worldwide, host inspirational events and trainings and facilitate various wellness classes for corporate clients. I also organize special experiences for private groups, so make sure to get in touch if you’d like to magic into your life!

My Yogic Journey

My yogic path started with Ashtanga. Some years later after an ankle injury, I started feeling more drawn to other styles. Today, Vinyasa Flow and Yin are the closest to my heart. 

As a yoga teacher, I combine the power of Vinyasa flow with the restorative energy in Yin. In a typical yoga class, you will feel the warmth of the flowing movement, and the strength in holding poses with integrity. People say I have a gentle way of guiding your body in to proper alignment, and I always aim to work to meet each of my students individual needs. I believe that these two practices complement each other and are the perfect combination for a calm, balanced body, mind and spirit. My classes build strength, create flexibility and inspire play.

I think that it is important to keep an open heart and a willingness to learn from others. Therefore I must always stay a student.

I also believe that by practicing yoga and coming into alignment with your highest self, you will live a more fulfilling life and make choices from a more centered place. After all, life is all about choices.

After years of teaching and studying yoga, my spiritual practice has branched out to include teachings about the subtle body, and in particular the Chakra System, resonance and sound healing, as well as the lunar cycle and the Divine Feminine.
