Salma Negm: I discovered yoga while I was an undergraduate student at Concordia. One summer when I went to visit my family in Egypt I was going through a very dark time in my life where I didn’t know who I was and what mattered to me. One day I came across a reflective meditation video that had given me a glimpse of living mindfully. After having experienced a meditative state, I delved into Yoga (Asana) and it naturally became my daily medicine. It has been 6 years since I started my yoga journey. For me, yoga is a way of life.

My interest in teaching yoga came about so organically while I was travelling with a group of wonderful people in Costa Rica. They encouraged me to guide group meditations and yoga classes throughout our trip. Realizing how much joy that had brought me, I quit my corporate job and pursued yoga school in Mexico. I continued to travel, teaching yoga at hostels around Latin America. For me, yoga is a way of life.
