“What would it be like if I could accept life–accept this moment–exactly as it is?” – Tara Brach
Feedback from our clients
Thanks to your energy, guidance and support, I’ve been able to do exactly what I was hoping when I started my private lessons: safely build my strength and confidence, comfortably ‘graduate’ to group classes and wanting to keep developing my yoga journey. Thank you so much, Eszter! – Caroline
This was the most beautiful massage I’ve had. Eszter gives all her energy in the most calming and loving way and provides such a trusting atmosphere, which allowed me to fully relax and made me feel secure.
– Lea W.
Eszter is pretty much the personification of the gentle, compassionate attitude that I try to cultivate through my yoga practice. She is a source of inspiration as well as a great teacher.
– Roos V. H.
YOGA
Join our gentle but dynamic sessions of yoga in English in Budapest, where we focus on the breath and body sensations to still the mind.
Through practicing vinyasa yoga, we allow each movement to follow the inhales and the exhales. We learn how to soften and strengthen at the same time. Leave feeling centered and rejuvenated.

MEDITATION
When we bring mindfulness to our every action, we become more present and get to experience life in its fullness. Mindfulness meditation has many benefits, including better mental and physical health, a calmer nervous system, a brighter outlook on life and more wholesome human relationships.
If you would like to start your practice or deepen it with us, check out the details of my upcoming introductory course starting in October 2023!
If you want to set up a tailored mindfulness meditation session or workshop for yourself or your company to cultivate self care and stress management, email me! I will be happy to discuss opportunities with you.
I am in the process of setting up introductory mindfulness meditation courses in English for teens and young adults. The sessions will be participatory and discuss the basics of mindfulness meditation practice, and offer guided breathing practice and movement to help increase resilience and self-acceptance. If you are interested in details and start dates, email me and I’ll share them with you soonest.
THAI YOGA MASSAGE
Have you heard that Thai yoga massage functions as “the yoga of the lazy”?
I like to rephrase this as Thai yoga massage can provide the ultimate re-set for the physical and subtle body. It can bring about much-needed emotional and physical release, in a passive and comfortable way.
Thai yoga massage happens on a tatami mat while the client wears loose and comfortable clothes.
Please bring appropriate clothing with you.

About
Photo: Arwa Hamouda
Hello, I’m Eszter and I teach mindfulness meditation and movement in English in Budapest.
Before becoming a meditation and yoga instructor, I lived and worked in challenging environments. From Sudan through Ghana and Palestine, I worked in fast-paced and often tumultuous settings while working for the United Nations or news organizations. I often felt overwhelmed but luckily — having practiced yoga since 2005 — I was able to check-in, regulate my nervous system and find a sense of calm.
I’ve come to believe that yoga, meditation and other body-based practices can help us ground, relax and center ourselves.
Do you feel that you also need all this?
During my yoga classes as well as with Thai yoga massage, I will happily assist you in your quest for a sense of tranquility. Calm. Stillness perhaps.
