✨ Movement, stillness, and shadow — a path to wholeness at any age ✨
Guiding you through yoga, meditation, dance, and shadow work to awaken your essence.
About Me
At Yogi Essence, yoga, dance, meditation, and shadow work come together as pathways to healing and transformation. Each step, each breath, and each pause becomes an invitation to return to wholeness.
My name is Eli Pele, I have walked the path of yoga and meditation for over four decades, guided not only by stillness but also by movement. My background as a dancer taught me to listen to the wisdom of the body, while my years of meditation revealed the vastness of inner silence. Along the way, I discovered that true growth does not come from light alone, but also from turning toward the shadow—the hidden places within us that hold both pain and untapped strength.
My work weaves these threads together: yoga, dance, meditation, and shadow exploration.
I offer a space where people can move, breathe, and feel into the fullness of who they are—not as a performance, but as a return to essence. My calling is to guide others into a deeper relationship with their body, psyche, and spirit, so that each step becomes a step into freedom and wholeness.
