Javiera Lagos
Founder
Ashtanga Mysore Program​
I discovered yoga while attending University in Chile in 2008, under the guidance of my first yoga teachers Gabriel Beilinson and Valentina Doren. who happened to be also professional surfers. This experience sparked a love for yoga, surfing, nature, and a healthy lifestyle that was the first cornerstone of a lifelong path.
Due to my background as a former elite rhythmic gymnast for ten years and and three national championship titles, it was natural to connect with movement, focus, and discipline. So in 2012 made my first trip to Kerala, India to deepen my knowledge with a TTC and fell in love with India’s culture and traditions.
After completing my Master’s degree in Economics, I moved to Berlin in 2015, and since then, I have been practicing under the guidance of Matthew & Carla Vollmer, Matias de Biedma & Carola della Croce. I also traveled to Mysore, India to practice and study with Sharath Jois. I am incredibly grateful to all my teachers, who have not only taught and guided me in a traditional parampara but also inspired and supported me both on and off the mat. Their encouragement has been instrumental in shaping me into the person I am today.​​

With a fascination for learning and physical development he has expanded his knowledge across various disciplines and training methodologies, always seeking to understand different approaches and ideas; applying them in his own training and with students.
He started teaching handstands to adults over 10 years ago with students from a wide range of areas such as: yoga, Crossfit, professional circus artists, hobby hand balancers, and complete beginners.

All of his classes, whether in a group, private classes, or online, are structured to help the students understand what they need to know right now as well as starting to understand the bigger picture of how things fit together.
Zoe Monteillet
Vinyasa Yoga
Zoe has been practicing yoga for the past six years, with both Vinyasa and Ashtanga shaping her journey. When she moved to Berlin four years ago, yoga became an essential part of her daily life, offering her grounding, balance, and connection in a new city.​In 2025, she completed her Vinyasa Teacher Training in Mysore, India, an experience that deepened her practice and her understanding of yoga as more than movement alone.
​
In her classes, Zoe shares yoga as a way of life. She weaves together pranayama, meditation, and mindful movement to create space for both body and mind. At the same time, she embraces the playful and challenging side of practice, inviting students to step onto the mat as if it were a playground—one where they can explore, grow, and gently challenge their own limits.
