Meet Bella
Wellness, or friskvård in Swedish, has always been an interest of mine, but yoga wasn't initially a priority. My active family life and sports involvement left little time for it. As a college professor teaching holistic wellness, I realized I wasn't "walking the talk." After trying hot yoga with my daughter, I loved the physical benefits, and gradually embraced various yoga styles, amazed at their positive impact on my life. I began my teacher training with Eight Limbs Yoga in Orillia, Ontario, completed a 300-hour Multi-Style yoga training with World Peace Yoga School in Bali, and continuously upgrade my knowledge with Akasha Yoga Academy.
As the founder of Malva, I am dedicated to supporting your wellness journey. The studio mirrors my path to health and wellness. Bella is a CIDESCO certified esthetician, nutritional coach, yoga instructor, and educator with vast experience in the wellness industry. She has built a strong foundation in both traditional and modern wellness practices, traversing the wellness landscapes of Canada and Sweden. After 15 years as a professor and program coordinator of the Esthetician and Medical Skin Care Program at Georgian College in Ontario, Bella returned to Sweden to share her passion for holistic wellness.
