Najla Coury

Najla, born and raised in Redondo Beach, CA, fell in love with yoga in 2000 when she attended her first class. Yoga physically, mentally, and emotionally brought unity into her life. Through her practice she has learned that challenge builds inner strength, movement within the asanas (postures) creates freedom in the mind and body, and all together there is a perfect balance between strength, flexibility, and grace.

With great eagerness and curiosity she began to study with various master teachers. Different teachers all have their own unique flavor and style, so Naj set out to attend yoga conferences in other cities and classes at other studios in Los Angeles. Najla completed the Yoga Teachers Association Certification program through Harmony Yoga and has been teaching since 2002. Najla is trained in body work as well, completing the Massage Therapy-Master CN 650 program at California Healing Arts College.
