Dora is a former Medical Researcher (PhD in Immunology) turned Holistic Stress and Resilience Coach. She is a certified Holistic Nutritionist, experienced Yoga teacher, Integrative Restoration (iRest®) Yoga Nidra Meditation teacher and Reiki Master Teacher. Having experienced tremendous stress, anxiety and stress-related health conditions most of her life, she found healing through good nutrition and holistic stress management. Realizing that many share the same struggles, she is passionate about empowering men and women to move beyond daily stress and anxiety; restore health and energy; and live with purpose, peace and resiliency. 

Dora teaches various styles of Yoga including, Vinyasa, Power, Restorative, Chair and Foundational Yoga and has a strong focus on providing a trauma-informed and accessible Yoga practice for everyone, no matter their physical level or Yoga experience. Dora is also trained in iRest® Yoga Nidra Meditation, which is an effective and evidence-based practice to decrease stress, anxiety, insomnia, post traumatic stress and chronic pain, while supporting deep relaxation, increased resiliency, inner peace and well-being. She offers both group classes and private one-on-one sessions for Yoga, Meditation, Reiki, and Spiritual & Life Coaching.

With a multidisciplinary background, Dora has a unique perspective in recognizing and finding solutions to obvious and hidden sources of stress that show up in our lives both physically and psychologically. Dora’s approach is accessible, realistic and nurturing. She tailors to each individual’s unique journey to health and well-being and is dedicated to serving and supporting those in her community with trauma-informed practices of Yoga and Meditation.
