My mission is to heal my mind with yoga and to infuse my body with love. To inspire my friends and women, in general, to follow their inner-voice – intuition and find good alignment for their body and mind through daily yoga practice and change of habits.

Be like a tree. Stay grounded. Connect with your roots. Turn over a new leaf. Bend before you break. Enjoy your unique natural beauty. Keep growing.

My name is Dominika, I am a Yoga Alliance certified yoga instructor and Birth Wisdom Yoga certified in Pregnancy Yoga & Birthing Yoga. I completed RYT200 teacher training at Hot Yoga Experience in Redmond in 2018. I am a mom of three kids, two girls, and one boy and I went through three natural births. I believe that yoga is for everyone and can do miracles. Its benefits are literally infinite, the only obstacle is your mindset.

The Bird of Paradise Yoga is about finding a spark, the renewal, and giving yourself an opportunity to rebirth as a new, strong, magnificent human being. Breaking unhealthy patterns, getting to know your inner voice, find healthy alignment, shift your mindset, and make the highest priority of yourself to be able to stay present and better serve your children and those who you love. I picture it as an ongoing journey, never-ending consistent work, and effort. The bird of paradise became my favorite pick pose while I was discovering yoga and brought me so much joy and positive outlook that it became the perfect name for this blog, as I strongly identify myself with this asana. Rise into a new you, shine, and fly!
