Pazit Partouche-Persi
"When Erica explained me in one of our lessons that Yoga helps us in removing emotional blockages from our system it was a serious enlightenment for me.
Erica’s way of explaining and teaching the body to release fear and emotional blockages is magical.
I started practicing with Erica towards my 40’s and I didn’t imagine that I could improve so much, to find new ease in my body, such a wide range of movement and such a deep interest in the meaning of breath and the work on our inner organs.
I’ve practiced with many teachers, both in Israel and worldwide, in Erica there is special depth that reaches you and influence from within.
Every practice with Erica brings new excitement.
The work is internal. It is deep and gentle but yet so strong.
The practice goes with me outside of the mat into my daily life: at home, at work and the most important thing- in the way I deal with my thoughts.
Yoga with Erica brings me to physical flexibility that I didn’t know that even existed…, strength in my arms, legs and palms- I never managed to do a headstand and now I can☺️
I sleep much better, I’m amazingly more calm.
When I feel some kind of pressure or stress I practice few minutes of pranayama or some asana on the mat and immediately return to my center and feel better.
Yoga with Erica goes so much beyond the actual practice time because from her I get tools for self practice later on.
It is an incredibly good sensation to know that you are independent in your practice.
This way I can develop my personal daily self practice that reconnects me to myself.
Yoga with Erica is a pure connection to the flow of joy, inner strength and ease.
Every teacher brings a different quality.
I cherish the quality that flows through Erica.
Thank you Erica for touching my life in such a profound way☺️"

Erica Rintovich
My yoga journey started with Zipi Winner- B.K.S Iyengar closest student & certified teacher. I was 11 years old.
After two years of practicing with Zipi I understood that yoga is an inseparable part of my life and I decided to go deeper.
I started my Vedanta studies & yoga practice at the Sivananda yoga center in Tel Aviv. I was 13 years old.
I grew up in this center and after few years did my first Yoga Teacher Training program with the Sivananda yoga Vedanta school.

My yoga practice supported me a lot in this field as well. At the age of 16 I discovered Pilates:)
I did my Pilates Teacher Training & specialized in Pilates for rehabilitation. I combine a lot of this knowledge in my yoga classes.
In addition to my practice I did my first BA in Tel Aviv university, majoring in East Asian studies, specializing in Indian philosophy.

With the years I had the privilege to meet Sri Dharma Mittra and open up to a new, different & very dynamic practice. I went through my second Yoga Teacher Training with him.
Few years ago I had the privilege to meet a dear man, wonderful teacher, an inspiration for life- Shimon Ben Avi. He was a direct student of Sri K Pattabhi Jois.
I did my third teacher training with him, specializing in Ashtanga yoga and was his assistant in the following teacher training.
In 2008 I was in the foundation team of “Pure Studios” in TLV where I managed the professional team of teachers & instructors in the studio.
As for today, I study in KPJAYI – the central institute for Ashtanga yoga, founded by the late S. K. Pattabhi Jois in Mysore, India.
