Pelin Gülmez

Pelin was introduced to yoga for the first time in 2014. For many years she had been on the journey to deepen her yoga practice and benefit from the experiences of multiple yoga teachers along the way. In this regard she also completed the Yoga Alliance Certified 200-Hour Specialization program with Urun Kurtiç.

While on this journey, she met Ken The Rolfer and this gave her another direction, routing her towards the Ashtanga Vinyasa method. She continued on her yoga journey with the YogaŞala 80 Hours Ashtanga Mentoring program with Canan Özalp.

Pelin worked with numerous yoga experts such as Hamish Hendry, Dylan Bernstein, Petri Raisanen, and Harmony Slater and attended their workshops. In 2016, she completed the YogaŞala Vinyasa Krama Specialization Program with Urun Kurtiç. Between 2015-2017, she completed the 300-hour Yoga Alliance Approved Therapy Approach to Advanced Yoga Specialization program with Hart Lazer, which brought a completely different experience to her practice and session.

On her third trip to Mysore, India in 2022, Sharath Jois granted Pelin with the prestigious “Level 2 Authorization” to teach the Ashtanga Vinyasa method.

Pelin continues to focus on Ashtanga yoga and tries to bring the powerful experience of this practice into her sessions.
