The Teachers


Aisha Fakhro
RYT200

Picture
Aisha’s Yoga journey has been inspired by Yoga’s celebration of individuality, and how that attitude can then be applied off the mat throughout our life experiences.
Infinitely curious, she is passionate about finding ways to make complicated matters feel simple and attainable, especially when it involves understanding our bodies and thought processes.
Her classes lead students through a fluid Vinyasa flow that blends playful challenges and nourishing movements, helping us connect to our untapped potential as well as our bodies’ natural ability to self-heal. She loves giving students the space to discover that they are capable of more than they ever imagined. With regular practice, students can expect to get stronger, move with mindfulness and ease (on and off the mat), develop a sense of playfulness, and feel uplifted as they start to increasingly believe in their own potential. 


Batool Al Rahma
RYT200

Introduced to Yoga in April 2011, Batool was quickly inspired by its life changing beauty in working the mind and body. Her inspiration has quickly materialised to signing up for a teacher training in 2014 and receiving her certification from Namaste Bahrain. Passionate about core-strength, her teaching style is vinyasa flow and shares her love of Yoga in her classes.



Abeer Bader
RYT200

Picture
​As part of her decision to adopt an active lifestyle upon graduation, Abeer was unexpectedly introduced to yoga in 2013 and it has been a constant growing journey ever since. Coming from a corporate field, where deadlines appear in every corner and meetings set the course of the day, Abeer recognized the fast-paced life that was shaping her world and learnt to find peace and stillness on the mat. Yoga soon became the anchor that always pulled her back into the preset.

Curious to learn more on the ancient philosophies that go behind the practice, she completed her RYT 200 training in Namaste and this has brought deep emotional, spiritual, and physical change to her life. Since then, she has been keen to share her learning in efforts to trigger the light of this change on others.

With a hardcore gym history, and a recent mix with martial arts, Abeer's approach is intended to challenge the mind, instill patience, build strength, while cherishing the body as the temple that it is.

​    Danielle Holding is a registered yoga teacher (RYT 200) and prenatal yoga teacher (RPYT) with Yoga Alliance. Having always led an active lifestyle, she was first drawn to yoga for the physical aspect of the practice. After her first class in Canada in 2010, she fell in love with how her body and mind felt after yoga. She explored different classes with a variety of different teachers, and yoga became a welcome break from a demanding career.

After moving to Bahrain in 2014, she began to deepen her practice and incorporate yoga into daily life, rather than just when she "needed a break". Danielle completed her 200hr teacher training at Namaste Bahrain in February 2016 and has been teaching and sharing the joy of practicing yoga ever since. In July 2017 she completed her 85hr prenatal vinyasa yoga training with Jennifer More. She hopes to help women see the positive effects a vinyasa style prenatal class can provide during pregnancy. Danielle is always eager to continue her yoga education, and takes part in workshops and training whenever she can.
Danielle aims to provide a safe and encouraging space for every student attending her class. She enjoys teaching dynamic vinyasa flow, restorative, and prenatal classes that incorporate breath work, alignment, and finding balance in body and mind. She also enhances her classes by using essential oils for aromatherapy. Apart from yoga, Danielle is a prairie girl at heart who loves spending time with family, friends, and planning life's next adventure with her husband. She enjoys spending time outdoors in nature, travelling, cooking wholesome food, and has a soft spot in her heart for animals.

Kaeb Al Gosaibi
RYT200

Picture
Over the years my yoga practice went through ups, downs, lefts and rights. From dreading to get on my mat, to only practicing Pranayama, from becoming obsessed with inversions, to loving sun salutations which I so hated one day, from only practicing with an instructor, to loving my alone practice time, from practicing to heal to practicing to surrender. Yes! my yoga mat is my magic carpet it took me to all those places, it holds my secrets, it accepts my weakness and celebrates my strength :) I hope that I will be able to show my students the thrill of mastering and breathing through a difficult pose and the contentment that comes with holding and smiling while in a grounding pose, the joy of toning our bodies while quieting our minds. Namaste

Magdalena Milhoux
​ERYT200- RYT500- YACEP

Picture
RYT 500 yoga teacher trained in multi style yoga in Hyderabad and Goa, India, with over 800 taught hours.
My yoga philosophy is extremely simple : when I practise yoga  life is good , when I don`t practise yoga life becomes more difficult. Yoga is a shield in everything I do...
My ultimate goal as a yoga teacher is to make my students feel good about themselves and about everything that surrounds them but also to help them create the right conditions for their bodies so that they can do what they are designed to do in life for as long as possible with as little pain as possible.

Sara Abdulla
RYT200

Sara’s ever evolving yoga journey of moving with injuries, pregnancy, and motherhood  has taught her that the only constant is change and one size definitely does not fit all. 

Sara’s approach to yoga is one that honors that inner voice and encourages a deeper  connection with the body to cultivate a practice that is nourishing, intuitive and  transformational. She is a certified prenatal and postnatal yoga teacher (RPYT).

Sara Karimi
RYT200

Picture
​Sara's journey began in 2012, while training to be a paediatric nurse in the UK. She completely fell in love with yoga and knew it would be important in her life from the very first class.

Since arriving in Bahrain in 2015, she had committed to a regular practice at home and at Namaste. During a yoga break to India, her passion for yoga deepened leading to me qualifying as a yoga teacher with Namaste in February 2018. It was such an amazing experience and one of her happiest achievements. 

Sara found Yoga to be healing, strengthening and calming. It has given her a better posture, aided sleeping and boosted her confidence. Sara aims to share those elements in her teaching style. Her classes are fun, strengthening and grounding vinyassa flow classes. Her focus is on how to connect the mind and body.
