    Introducing Massa Mamey-Clarke, a yoga teacher from Liberia. She is a self-taught yogi and now a certified Ashtanga instructor. She has been teaching officially since 2016, and she envisions herself as a future studio owner in Liberia, where she can continue to radiate light and tranquility in Liberia and beyond.

    What to expect in the Yoga In Liberia episode of the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast


    Massa Mamey-Clarke shares her beautiful story with us on the Wild Yoga Tribe podcast, a story of self-discovery, resilience, and a deep-rooted passion for sharing the transformative power of yoga with her community in Libera.


    Massa's journey with yoga began unexpectedly during her senior year of college in the United States. A chance encounter with the crow pose sparked her curiosity, leading her to explore this ancient practice. Despite being unfamiliar with yoga, Massa was captivated by the beauty and grace of the poses she discovered online. Thus, her journey as a self-taught yogi commenced, marking the beginning of a transformative path.


    Driven by the profound impact yoga had on her life, Massa felt compelled to share this gift with others, especially in Liberia. Recognizing the need for mental wellness amidst the backdrop of Liberia's tumultuous history, Massa saw yoga as a gateway to healing and resilience for her community. Thus, her vision to become a yoga teacher and establish a studio in Liberia was born.


    As Massa's teaching journey progressed, she learned valuable lessons about the importance of self-care and boundaries. Recognizing the toll of back-to-back teaching sessions, Massa embraced the need for balance and prioritized her well-being. Her journey serves as a reminder to aspiring yoga teachers to nurture themselves while serving others, finding harmony amidst the demands of teaching.


    For Massa, yoga transcends mere physical practice; it embodies a holistic lifestyle encompassing physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Rooted in self-acceptance and presence, yoga offers a path to healing, self-discovery, and connection.

  • #104 - Kyrgyzstan's Yoga Renaissance - Yoga in Kyrgyzstan with Roman Chernousov
    2024/02/02

    Welcome to Episode #104 of the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast! My conversation with Roman Chernousov, a yoga teacher from Kyrgyzstan, was fascinating as we took a deep dive into the history of yoga in Kyrgyzstan and how it was illegal because of how the government knew that it was such a powerful practice. Trust me, this story sounded like a movie! We also talked about Roman’s travels to Tibet and how he studied not just yoga but Kung Fu and Qi Gong as well. I hope that this conversation surprised you, delighted you, and made you more curious about yoga in Kyrgyzstan.


    So if you’re looking to tune into a podcast episode that is all about yoga in Kyrgyzstan then this is the conversation for you.

    Tell me more about Roman Chernousov

    Roman Chernousov, yoga teacher from Kyrgyzstan followed a diverse athletic background in childhood and young adulthood, including wrestling and wushu. However, Roman found solace and healing in yoga and qigong after a serious illness in 1998. His extensive training, ranging from traditional Tibetan practices in Northern Tibet to courses in India and St. Petersburg, led him to develop the YogaMix system. Since 2007, Roman has been passionately imparting his knowledge, conducting yoga retreats, and shaping future yoga teachers through comprehensive courses, viewing yoga not merely as a profession but as a cherished lifestyle and a continuous path of self-development.


    What to expect in the Yoga In Kyrgyzstan episode of the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast

    Discover the rich tapestry of yoga in Kyrgyzstan through the eyes and experiences of Roman Chernousov, a yoga teacher from Kyrgyzstan.


    Roman's connection with yoga began at the age of five when his father, defying the ban on yoga in the '70s and '80s, introduced him to the practice using books. These clandestine teachings revealed a world of asanas and breathing techniques, setting the foundation for Roman's lifelong relationship with yoga.


    Growing up with a passion for wrestling and Kung Fu, Roman found strength, discipline, and resilience in these pursuits. He emphasizes how these disciplines shaped his character, instilling in him the importance of daily practice, a lesson he later passed on to his yoga students.


    Roman's yoga journey took a profound turn after a severe illness in 1998. Facing physical traumas from martial arts, he turned to yoga and Qigong for recovery. Undeterred by the initial challenges, Roman's daily practice gradually restored strength, leading him to develop the Yoga Mix System—an amalgamation of various yoga styles and influences.


    Over the years, the yoga community in Kyrgyzstan has flourished. From a mere handful of practitioners, there are now over 200 yoga teachers in the capital of Kyrgyzstan, Bishkek, alone. Roman's dedication to teaching and the growing interest in yoga reflect a remarkable transformation of yoga in Kyrgyzstan.


    Kyrgyzstan, once shrouded in secrecy, is now a thriving hub for yoga practitioners, fostering growth, healing, and unity.
