Yoki Studio

Welcome to Yoki Studio, a private members club that values and respects your freedoms. Located near Cobham in Surrey, U. K. , Yoki Studio is owned and operated by Ellie Yoki, a dedicated yoga practitioner and instructor with over 20 years of experience.

Ellie's passion for yoga began when she was introduced to it in 1998 at the age of 18. Since then, she has completed a 500-hour/3-year teacher training course with Ruth White, a student of BKS Iyengar, the renowned founder of The Iyengar Institute and creator of the rope wall.

At Yoki Studio, the rope wall is a prominent feature. Ellie's background in Iyengar and Ashtanga-inspired yoga, coupled with her strong anatomical and alignment focus, has allowed her to develop a unique teaching method. She blends static rope work with her own rope flow creations and traditional mat-based poses, creating a personal and engaging yoga experience for her students. Throughout her teaching career, Ellie has catered to students of all levels, from beginners to experienced teachers.

Yoga is not just a physical practise for Ellie; it is a haven and a passion in her life. She believes that yoga provides the opportunity for people to escape the busyness of life and truly connect with their bodies. In her classes, Ellie aims to create a fun and engaging environment where students can let go, have fun, and not take themselves too seriously.

Beyond yoga, Ellie has personally overcome various challenges, including scoliosis (curvature of the spine). She credits the alignment focus and technical instructions of Iyengar yoga for helping her manage this condition. Additionally, Ellie has faced brain surgery and chemotherapy, finding peace and gratitude through reiki healing and yoga philosophy. Yoga has also been instrumental in helping her cope with anxiety, allowing her to find balance and maintain her sanity while juggling her family and personal life.

At Yoki Studio, Ellie's dedication to her students' well-being goes beyond the physical practise of yoga. She is committed to creating a space where individuals can explore their inner selves, reclaim their sovereignty, and cultivate meaningful relationships with themselves, loved ones, and the Earth. By raising the vibration of our collective consciousness, Yoki Studio aims to contribute to a new earth and a new way of being.
