Teachers at Aum Yoga Center
Guiding with Heart, Teaching with Presence
Meet Shiva
Shiva is the heart and steady presence of Aum Yoga Center. His journey with yoga began early; at just five years old, when his loving grandmother introduced him to simple asanas and mantra chanting. Since then, yoga has been a lifelong path. While he has decades of experience in traditional Hatha Yoga, what truly defines him is not his résumé, but his humility, warmth, and joy.
Despite his deep study of Vedanta, Ramana Maharshi, and the Sivananda tradition, Shiva remains genuinely approachable and down-to-earth. He teaches with a smile, welcomes questions, and creates an environment where everyone feels safe and included. Students often leave his classes smiling, feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected: physically and emotionally.
Shiva’s teaching reflects his holistic view of yoga. His classes include a balanced mix of postures, pranayama, meditation, mantra, and deep rest. His use of mantra chanting and the joyful energy he brings create a lightness that students deeply appreciate. He also weaves in Ayurvedic principles, encouraging mindful routines and healthy habits as part of living yoga off the mat.
He leads Kirtan workshops, crystal bowl sound sessions, and offers space for reflection and discussion, always in a respectful, non-dogmatic way.
For Shiva, yoga is more than technique; it’s about presence, community, and finding joy in the journey. His goal isn’t perfection in the pose, but connection with the breath, the self, and life itself. Through his humble, joyful teaching, Shiva inspires each student to find peace and happiness on and off the mat.

Meet Yasmine
Yasmine’s journey with yoga began at the age of 17 during a life-changing trip to Rishikesh. It was her first encounter with the practice, and it planted a seed that has been growing ever since. Yoga became a space of deep healing and transformation for her. It was a path that supported her through challenges, taught her presence, and helped her reconnect with her inner strength.
Years later, she returned to Rishikesh to deepen her practice and complete her teacher training in Hatha and Vinyasa yoga. Her teaching is rooted in personal experience and a deep respect for the tradition, with a focus on breath, awareness, and gentle strength. Today, she shares the practice through grounding, breath-led classes that support others on their own healing journeys.
Originally from France, Yasmine has been living in Cambodia for the past year, holding space for students of all levels to reconnect with their breath, body, and intention. She teaches with presence and care, creating an environment that invites students to slow down, soften, and return to themselves.
Meet Celine
Céline’s path with yoga began early in life and deepened over the years through learning and practicing in various ashrams across the world. Immersed in both tradition and personal experience, her practice grew into a way of life—one she began sharing during her world travels, when she first stepped into the role of teacher.
She teaches in a multistyle approach—Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, and Aerial yoga—combining movement, breath, and awareness in a way that supports both strength and softness. Her interest in the body led her to study yoga anatomy, bringing thoughtful attention and precision into her classes.
Céline is also a vocal sound healer and voice coach. She combines yoga sequences with the vibrations of sound, creating a unique and immersive experience that supports deeper connection and release. With a background as a professional singer and vocal coach, she brings a rich, embodied understanding of voice into her spiritual practice. Through vocal sound healing and meditative singing, she guides others into deep states of presence, opening pathways to healing and inner clarity.
Céline holds space with gentleness and grounded energy. Whether through movement or sound, her classes invite students to slow down, feel deeply, and return to the wisdom of their own bodies and breath.
