ABOUT


Özzy has been teaching yoga since 2016! She is certified for over 700hr RYT. After working in the corporate world for 10 years, she found her yoga path in 2015 and moved from Istanbul to NYC.

Since then, she’s been teaching full time with the best variety of NYC studios and online platforms. She has experience teaching in different cities in the U.S. Puerto Rico, Europe, Turkey and in international online communities. She has also conducted retreats, workshops and assisted with teacher trainings.

She realizes that life is a continuous process of change. Her intention is to continue to evolve, to learn, and to grow every day. Özzy truly believes there is magic in the world and just might turn you into a believer too if you practice with her regularly :)

Özzy really started a new life from scratch in the Big Apple with a completely new path—with yoga at its core. Along the way, she has changed a ton of unhealthy habits and thinking patterns and rewired her anxiety-driven brain. She has also learned how to live in balance with an addictive personality and overcome her fears of public speaking.

TEACHER MENTORSHIP


Teaching yoga is an endless learning journey.

I see so many teachers who haven’t found their inner voice to speak through classes yet. Sometimes we believe that good teachers are naturally talented, but just as the asana practice improves with time, dedication, and good guidance - teaching yoga is also a practice.

Drawing on my almost 10 years of teaching experience, my real life expertise along with my yoga studies, I am here to help you with every level of teaching a well rounded yoga class. I would be honored to share my love for this lifelong work and walk the path of teaching with you!

"Ozzy’s class sets the perfect setting to expand and nurture your practice. She gently encourages you to go beyond what you think you are capable of. With her teachings she accepts you for who you are while also encouraging you to dig deeper into yourself mentally and physically. I truly enjoy taking her classes and after a mentally taxing day in the office, Ozzy’s class is like a spiritual hug. There is truly no other teacher like her."

-Amanda Pilar Reyes

"It’s been hard trying to compile all the amazing things I’ve learned through my practice with Ozzy. She has been a huge pedestal in my journey through yoga, helping me feed the fire within to get curious, disciplined and wild. Thanks to her I’ve been able to deepen my practice and understand my body’s reaction to this practice. Ozzy’s class is like medicine for body, mind, and soul. There hasn’t been a moment in my practice with her where this statement isn’t true. To anyone who’s curious about diving into yoga or deepening your practice, I highly recommend Ozzy to begin your journey for you will be in safe hands."
