She is most passionate about Kundalini yoga because of how immediate the benefits of the practice are. Gloria’s Kundalini yoga classes are a dynamic, powerful, fast paced and effective form of yoga that produce quick results.

Benefits of her classes include weight control, relief from stress and insomnia, enhanced creativity, lymphatic cleansing, liver detoxification, balancing the heart and mind, and developing will-power. Practice will stimulate the nervous system, glandular system and the immune system as it centers the mind and opens the spirit. Each Kundalini yoga class includes centering oneself with a mantra, warm up, a specific yoga postures set, deep relaxation and meditation.

Gloria’s favorite place to practice yoga is on her island home of Kythira, Greece. It is her dream to continue to take students to this magical island so they can experience the power of yoga, combined with the rugged passionate, raw energy of the Greek Islands for a truly transformative experience.
