Surya Yoga Instructor : Zen

Zen discovered yoga in year 1999 by chance. Her job at the time, required her to move to the Philippines. She was a young independent individual paving her dreams. Near her workplace, was a quaint little yoga studio. Being the rather curious and adventurous 20-something year old, Zen decided to give yoga a try. 

In 2001, under the tutorship of Jose Antonio Arondo, co-founder and director of Yoga Manila Philippine, she built up her strength, flexibility and fell head over heels in love with yoga. She had a bigger dream now, to teach and inspire people to practice yoga. Back then, yoga was not popular or known in Malaysia. She had a new found passion, and was determined to share her fascination for yoga.

She came back to Malaysia after some time, and became a qualified yoga instructor. She attends many immersion teacher trainings, learning Anusara and studied under yoga gurus such as Desiree Rumbaugh, Rose Rayburn, Victor Chng from Yin Yoga TTC as well as Simon Borg-Oliver from Yoga Synergy, Australia. Even when 9 months pregnant, she continued with her yoga practice. Zen is a warm, loving and encouraging yoga instructor. Many are drawn to her sweet and caring nature. Not to be underestimated, behind all that sweetness, is much strength and conviction.

She continues to amaze and inspire many at our sunny studio at Aman Suria.
