Testimonials

Dear Bliss Yoga, Thank you so much for the wonderful classes during my recent visit to Accra. Nana you run an amazing studio with amazing teachers/instructors who after each class left you with something special to go home with. Friendly, vibrant, energetic, soulful and a big smile. cant wait for my next visit. Thomas, Rebecca, Yerina, Lucy, Olivia and Nana, Massive thank you!

I must say…I’ve traveled around the world and done tons of yoga. I’m from LA, but your studio, really brings it all together. I felt right a home. All levels are welcome. A cool global mix of people, and your teachers and staff just have great vibes! Accra is lucky to have such a studio. Can’t wait to roll out my mat on my next trip. Thank you

I went to last night’s class with Yerina. I just wanted to let you know how incredible it was! I had just gotten off of a 6-hour bus ride from Kumasi complete with blaring movies and screaming preachers, and the class totally transformed my attitude. I have never felt that good after a class. Anyways, I hope Yerina stays around as a guest instructor for a long, long time.

At times, as yoga teachers and yoga students, we tend to forget our true mission: to come to the practice with non-judging, non-harming energy. Here are more hints to help with our levels of self-respect and community spirit. We love you.

🔆yoga teachers, find your own yoga voice. this can be challenging. experiment until
you find it.

🔆yoga students, enjoy the practice! it is not about right or wrong, winning or losing but to feel better in your body and gain more peace in the mind.

🔆yoga teachers, teach to whoever is present in your class

🔆yoga students, if you are pregnant, approach your teacher before class, to better understand if it is the class for you.

🔆yoga teachers - find mentors.

🔆yoga students, “no pain, no pain.” we do yoga to ease pain in the body, not to create more.
be gentle even if you want a challenge.

To teach is a GIFT! Another amazing morning at roo

To teach is a GIFT! Another amazing morning at rooftop yoga. A MASSIVE congratulations to recent bliss 200-HR teacher training grad Rebecca. What a beautiful 1130am sat class she offered today. A full circle moment. The class was - exquisite. We love our teaching community.

Dr. Rebecca Otis sees her yoga mat as a place of healing and centeredness, and her teaching is a part of building a care community for universal compassion, deep service, and expansive love. After a diagnosis of two autoimmune diseases in her early twenties, Rebecca began practising yoga. She credits yoga with helping to rebalance her physical, mental, and spiritual connectedness, to the point that her immune system has repaired itself and she has been in remission for over a decade. A lifelong feminist who sees the personal as political, Rebecca offers a strong, woman-centred practice to yogis of all ages, bodies, and experience levels. She is an LGBTQI+ ally and a safe space for all seekers of balance, recovery, and wellness. Rebecca specializes in women in all stages of life, especially those in gender transition, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and perimenopause.

💫 Special shout out to Rama for teaching her 9am power vinyasa and staying on to support Rebecca. It was also awesome to see Yogi Imani and Nana round out the teaching team!

Gem wellness. Emotional Healing. Emerald is an excellent stone to call upon when emotions are running high or out of control. It brings harmony and equilibrium, soothes tempers, and calms fears.

Emerald also imparts mental clarity and brings to the surface what is unconsciously known so that you can access your inner wisdom and insight. It promotes discernment and truth, protecting you from falsehoods and unseen agendas.

If you have difficulty accepting love, Emerald will guide you and protect you from harm. It encourages us to show our feelings in a safe, empowered way and boosts self-confidence and self-esteem.

Charlene lives a life to open space to experience awe and wonder. She is exhorting us to be present, and it is in moments of presence, that we really live. The only thing we have is the present (moment) so it is here, that life is lived.

Home wellness. Fall in love - with your home. Accra IS home to some amazing spaces. Home is where the heart is. Today we are slipping into your feed with some heart warming rooms, from around the world.

Everything in your home triggers an emotional response. The spaciousness of your home, the layout of the room, the lighting, the use of materials, the presence of plants and flowers, the use of color, and the use of art are all ways to improve your mood, increase your focus, and reduce anxiety.

Sending you into the weekend with softness and vibrance. Namaste!

Gem wellness. Gem/stone therapy is a natural way t

Gem wellness. Gem/stone therapy is a natural way to care for the body with minerals and crystals; it's that simple. This is an ancestral technique used to relieve pain, harmonize and balance the mind, reduce stress, or for self-healing.

Considered an alternative energy medicine by many, this technique is simple and effective, and highly accessible. However, the mineral world is known for its wide variety of properties that can help to improve a plethora of pathologies.

On this note, using gems and crystals correctly can help to get our energy flowing again. To achieve this, we need to place certain stones in the right places.

The therapeutic effects you can expect vary, depending on the composition and color of each stone.

A good laugh can relieve physical tension in the body and relax the muscles for up to 45 minutes! Improves cardiac health: Laughing increases your heart rate and the amount of oxygen in your blood. This can improve vascular function and decrease the risk of heart attacks.

The big question: SHOULD I BE TEACHING FOR FREE??

The big question: SHOULD I BE TEACHING FOR FREE?? As our future yoga teachers, are getting ready to secure their training tuition discount by Jan. 15th (2nd extension offer), for our April teacher training, founder Nana @nanaamoakoanin is happy to land on the feed today.

Nana’s response to [Should I teach for free?]: “No you should not as a general measure teach for free. In the classes that you teach as a group instructor or private instructor, we CANNOT put a PRICE TAG on the value of your life experience…It’s PRICELESS!!!!!.”

Practitioners, stay tuned as she continues to debunk some of the common questions, you’ve asked!

At times, as yoga teachers and yoga students, we tend to forget our true mission: to come to the practice with non-judging, non-harming energy. More hints to help with our levels of self-respect and community spirit. We love you.

🔆yoga students: yoga can't FIX everything, your healing work OFF THE MAT is also important.

🔆yoga teachers: not everyone is into spirituality, so FOCUS on technique & movement first.

🔆yoga students: practitioner styles are different and UNIQUE, so BE OPEN, don't judge - adapt.

🔆yoga teachers: not every student will ultimately LIKE your class offering, and THAT'S OK!

Beginning the year. Thank you. For loving your practice. @nanaamoakoanin and @esipoweryoga were thrilled to host our 9am and 1130am sat rooftop yoga - first 2 classes of the year at the studio. It was a heart-opening experience.

A student wrote in after class: “thank you, I came to this class with no expectations - just with a feeling that THIS was the class environment for me, from what I saw online. The teachers were non-performative, and gave us THEIR practice, unapologetically. It was so beautiful to watch. I’m in transit back to Chicago and this has been the most elevating part of my trip. It was worth the wait. Thank you bliss yoga. Ever grateful.”
