About me

Lenka Powell

Welcome to my website, beautiful soul! I'm Lenka, and I'm thrilled to share my journey with you. Originally from Slovakia, I took a leap of faith 15 years ago and moved to the to be with my husband, sparking an incredible adventure that transformed my life. My passion for movement began with dance, but it was yoga that truly captured my heart, leading me to Rishikesh, India, where I became a certified 800-hour Advanced Yoga Teacher specializing in Vinyasa Flow and Ashtanga Yoga. My quest for knowledge continues as I explore the healing power of plant medicines, deepening my connection to nature and self. I invite you to join me on this journey of discovery, growth, and transformation as we embrace the beauty of life together.

So much more than a yoga class

โ€‹Now, as a Bedford-based teacher, I am passionate about sharing my love for yoga with others. Alongside a dedicated group of incredible yoga teachers, we focus on the healing benefits of yoga, including injury prevention, inversions, and creative sequencing. We strive to make yoga accessible and inclusive, bringing a modern lens to this ancient practice. Our classes are thoughtfully sequenced, and designed to create a safe space for students to explore, work hard, and find softness.

 

Together, we are growing a vibrant yoga community, offering the best classes in Bedford.

 

Our mission is to guide you beyond what you thought was possible, both physically and mentally.

โ€‹โ€‹

In addition to being a yoga teacher, I am a medicine cacao facilitator, sound healer, breathwork coach, cold water facilitator, and retreat host.

I am also the CEO of YWL, a platform dedicated to helping people deepen their connection to mind, body, and soul. These are just a few of the things that light me up, and I feel incredibly fortunate to share these healing modalities with thousands of people around the world.

 

I also wear another hat as a yoga business coach, helping other yoga teachers unapologetically serve their communities and recognize their worth, empowering them to significantly increase their yoga revenue. I believe in the power of yoga not just as a practice, but as a means to build a fulfilling and sustainable career.

 

Beyond my professional life, I am a playful, loving, and determined individual who loves being outside in nature, dipping in a river or the sea, adventuring around the world, cuddling my toddler, and grounding myself at home surrounded by loved ones.

Thank you for being here, and I look forward to connecting with you on this beautiful journey. From a Slovak girl to a powerful yoga CEO, my mission is to help you discover the transformative power of yoga and wellness.

"I am truly grateful for Lenka and her yoga school. Lenka is extremely passionate about sharing love for yoga and her enthusiasm for this beautiful practice is contagious.
Yoga with Lenka is not only yoga classes. Lenka also holds a one day yoga and spiritual growth fest - Ananda, once per year. I had a pleasure to take part in the one held in June this year. This was something I will always remember and cherish. The variety of offerings was great. Lenka puts her best efforts to offer uniqueness and does everything with love.
Totally recommend."

"Being fairly new to Bedford, and Aussie expats no less, my partner and I have been so happily surprised to find this exceptional offering. More than "just yoga", The instructors are so lovely and experienced and add a special and personal touch. Finding Yoga With Lenka has not only got me back into a healthy Yoga practice, but the classes are genuinely something I look forward to - this is coming from someone who is not prone to "loving exercise" ;-) ...but these classes and community make it fun. I can honestly say this is the best Yoga practice I've engaged in both in the UK (including in London) and Australia - well done Lenka and team.

Highly recommended."

"Yoga with Lenka is the best class (and community) you should join if you’re a newbie and want to learn yoga like me in the heart of Bedford. Every session is a learning experience for me and I love that Lenka/Jamie were both so patient and engaging when I needed help during my practices. I always look forward to attending every session as it makes me feel good by having that self-awareness through meditation and gives my body the exercise it needs. Overall, I highly recommend attending yoga classes here."
