ANDREJ LEPUR
I was born and raised in Dubrovnik, and moved to Zagreb to study. After graduating from university, Zagreb remained my home. I believe everything happens for a reason, and as destiny would have, I walked into Divya yoga centre for a Dharma yoga class with Sandra Petra Pintarić. I was instantly captivated by the positive energy and enthusiasm during classes and yoga soon became, not only my daily practice, but also an initiator of many positive life changes. Daily yoga practice made me realise - I want this to be my lifelong journey. Constantly learning and digging into yoga teachings inspired me to start teacher training RYT200 in Divya yoga school in 2015 with Sandra Petra Pintarić and Petra Carmichael as my teachers. In 2016 I've continued advanced teacher training RYT500 with Sandra Petra Pintarić. While traveling I take the opportunity to visit local yoga studios, as well as I like to practise with teachers from across the world visiting Zagreb. I had the honour to practice with acclaimed teacher Sri Dharma Mittra in London, and in Divya I have attended many workshops and lectures by: Andres Acosta, Shir Shemesh, Harmony Litchy (Slater), Mitchell Gold, Kirsten Berg, Kristijan Kolega (Kakudmi das). I draw my inspiration from the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda as he reconciles east and west, yoga and christianity, and dissolves prejudices about yoga in our society.
“Kindness is the light that dissolves all walls between souls, families, and nations.”
