YIN YOGA, VINYASA FLOW, AYURVEDA & YOGA THERAPY (200 & 300 HOUR LEVELS)
​SPECIALTY WORKSHOPS AND TRAININGS  ON  YOGA KURUNTA, NADA YOGA, AERIAL/TRAPEZE YOGA &  YOGA WHEEL
Ellie Ruales started this journey 22 years ago at Omega Institute of Holistic Studies where she had her first contact with Yoga, Meditation, Healing Practices as well as Ayurveda.

While she continued to work as an Industrial Engineer, she practiced yoga in her home country Colombia for over 12 years under the tradition of Bihar School and Iyengar before continuing her studies in India. 

As she continued to learn a more spiritual way, practicing meditation and yoga she started feeling unhappy about big corporations .

From 2003 to 2009 she founded an art business as well as a web designer firm yet she realized her passion was not there but in fact in awakening the human spirit. 

In 2009 she came back to India to deepen her learning at the Krishnamurti Foundation in Chennai
She then trained at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiran Foundation as well as at the Pattabi Jois Yoga Shala in Mysore. 

With her qualifications and drive Ellie cofounded and was the Program Coordinator for Abhijna School of Yoga for more than 10 years until with the push from the Covid 19 pandemic Ellie Ruales, now aged 41, embarked on her new project, bringing together all her learning and experience to form the Inner Heart Yoga and Holistic Institution.

Inner Heart Yoga & Holistic Institute is born from the deep understanding that humanity requires to be healed and explored in all aspects. It is a calling to awaken one's heart and to develop one's deepest most self. It is a place for learning, for introspection, for exploration, surrendering and for self love. 

​Ellies continuous studies and experience include .... 
Therapeutic Yoga at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiran Foundation in Chennai. 
Ashtanga Yoga with Sharath Jois at the Pattabhi Jois Research Institute in Mysore. 
Yin Yoga under the guidance of Biff Mitthoeffer since 2001.
Vinyasa Flow with Mark Stephens, Rod Stryker and Jason Crandell. 
Iyengar and Yoga Kurunta with her teacher Amit in Pune.

Ellie Ruales is an extremely versatile yoga teacher who holds a 500 ERYT and RPYT. She is trained in Yoga Therapy, Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga, Pre-natal Yoga as well as Yoga for Children. 

She is also an Ayurvedic Therapist with qualifications from Prajna Kuteera Ayurvedic Institute and has trained for the last 5 years in Vibrational Healing, Sound Therapy and Sound Healing under the guidance of her Teacher Francisco Lagos. 

Ellie is able to conduct all these activities at the Sound Healing Center at Inner Heart. When not otherwise engaged in teaching, she is constantly developing new ideas and programs for the institution.

Her teachings are available in both English and Spanish and are true to the traditions of Hatha Yoga (Iyengar and Bihar's approach).

Ellies understanding of yoga draws from more than 20 years of practice and experience with various teachers and students. 

Her greatest pleasure comes from being with her students where her generous nature to share her knowledge shines through.
