JIVAMUKTI YOGA TEACHER & DANCER
My name is Ahmad, a certified Jivamukti Yoga teacher and professional dancer originally from Syria and now based in the Netherlands. I completed my 300-hour Jivamukti Yoga Teacher Training in India in 2018. My journey into movement began much earlier, however—I studied at the Higher Institute of Dramatic Arts at Damascus University and graduated from the Dance Department in 2015.
Over the years, I have danced with renowned companies such as Enana Dance Theater in Syria and Caracalla Dance Theater in Lebanon. With these companies, I performed across the globe, experiencing the power of cultural connection through movement. Since 2019, I’ve continued my path in the Netherlands, working with Misiconi Dance Company and exploring how yoga and dance intersect to foster strength, awareness, and healing.

MY FAVOURITE QUOTE
Yoga and dance both teach me how to listen deeply
—to my body, my breath, and the world around me.
In my classes, I bring the depth of my dance background into the fluid, spiritual practice of Jivamukti Yoga. I guide students through a dynamic and thoughtful experience that emphasizes breath, alignment, and presence. Whether you come for physical strength or inner stillness, my aim is to help you reconnect with your body and find freedom through movement and mindfulness.
