Photo Janice Eliovson Janice Eliovson is the founder of Energy Source Yoga Studio. She has practiced yoga since 1994 and is a qualified practitioner of Yoga, Reik-ki and Zen Shiatsu, since 2000.

Janice conducts both private and group yoga classes with an emphasis on yoga being an holistic healing system. She places an emphasis on the importance of linking movement to breath, and in maintaining a mobile spine.

Janice's own experience in yoga has revealed that the system of yoga supports us when coupled with the appropriate application of the appropriate tools. She aims to teach her students to understand the best way to use their body, breath and mind to benefit their personal wellbeing.

In addition to her former qualification, Janice has spent the last four years studying the yoga teachings of Professor Krishnamacharya. Through these teachings she gained a strong foundation in both the philosophy of the ancient teachings of yoga (Yoga Sutras of Patanjali) and yoga as a therapeutic tool.

A focal point of the way that Janice teaches is by applying specific therapeutic focus, when required, to aid her clients. This is understood as yoga therapy. She knows that a person will respond best to yoga and benefit most when applying the appropriate practice to suit their individual needs instead of being forced into a generic practice. She is proficient in helping her clients with injuries or restrictions, be they physical or emotional issues, in both group and private classes and through treatments in Rei-ki and Zen Shiatsu.

Janice also participates in training yoga teachers, and has done so since 2004. Her expertise focuses on yoga philosophy, pranayama, meditative practices and yoga therapy which include areas such as;

  • back care,
  • spinal mobility and strength,
  • asthma,
  • chronic fatigue,
  • pregnancy, and
  • women's health

  • In addition, her previous experience working at Sarah Key physiotherapy has given her the lead in understanding the safest way to work with physical injuries to maintain spinal mobility and strength.

    Preceding her career in natural therapies Janice worked for 10 years as a chef. She has experience in Raw and Living Cuisine, Macrobiotics and Ayurvedic lifestyle principles. Together these enrich her aptitude as a practitioner of natural therapies. Nowadays Janice couples her extensive knowledge of gastronomy, dietary guidance, traditional Chinese medicine to her clients needs during private yoga sessions, Zen Shiatsu and Rei-ki treatments.

    Upon request cooking classes and corporate classes can be arranged for small groups.
