Instructors
Leyla Ahmet Meredith
1 Certificate
Show
With her diploma and certificate in hand, Leyla flew to Ethiopia. She has traveled a lot and had various journeys through Africa before settling in Jinja, Uganda. She became qualified as a yoga teacher in 2008 with Africa Yoga and has been teaching extensively over the world since then. Initially drawn to the dynamic nature of Ashtanga and its power and moving meditation qualities, she has now softened herself and prefers to teach Vinyasa flow.
Retreat location
Away from the hustle and bustle of Cairo’s traffic and the majesty of the Nile River, lies another historic body of water, the Red Sea. With multi-colored waters that glisten like rare jewels, and surrounded by the Sinai mountains, the Red Sea and South Sinai Desert should be on your “not to be missed” list of places to visit in Egypt. It is here in Dahab that the group will go together on a journey of transformation in the process of becoming a yoga teacher.
Dahab rests in the eastern corner of Egypt’s South Sinai Peninsula. Surrounded by Mt. Sinai and situated right on the Red Sea, Dahab is truly an oasis in the desert. Once primarily known as a fishing village, Dahab has become one of the coolest and chillest beach towns in Egypt drawing in free spirits, adventure travellers, windsurfing and kitesurfing enthusiasts and more recently the free diving community.
