NOYA is shaped by the people who move with it. In studios, at home, outdoors, on retreat. Different practices. Different spaces. Different ways of returning to the mat.
Sophie Lanka
She moves between aerial arts, flexibility and contortion, and teaches in a studio she built in France. She writes about practice the way some people write about love.
Yoga instructor and retreat host. She works with small groups of women in carefully chosen places, with one intention: to create the conditions for something real to happen.
She creates the conditions for reconnection. In nature, in stillness, in shared space. Her retreats don't ask you to arrive differently. Just to arrive.
Julie danced professionally before she began teaching. That shift, from performance to presence, became the foundation of M.A.T, the method she created. For Julie, the body isn't something to push. It's something to listen to.
Sara teaches Cardio Ballet in Drôme, southern France, in a studio she built to reflect exactly who she is and who comes through her door. Pink ballet barres, a bright room, and a clear intention: a space where women of any age, level, or body type can move without judgment.
Melissa teaches yoga in a small studio in Switzerland and runs slow women's retreats. She starts every class by listening, with no expectation of performance and no prerequisites: you arrive as you are.
