5-STAR RATED YOGA INSTRUCTOR.
OWNER OF METTA YOGA STUDIOS.
Zuzana is living proof of how yoga can change your life. 15 years ago, she was building her corporate career in the airspace industry and now she owns and manages Metta Yoga studios, in Phoenix and Scottsdale. She has lived and worked in Europe, Asia, Africa and South America and has now settled with her husband and dogs in Phoenix, Arizona.
Zuzana was originally introduced to yoga by her grandmother in the Czech Republic, where she was born. Later, while living in Mongolia, she was preparing for a professional career in gymnastics, until she suffered severe lower back and knee pain in her late teens due to years of intense training. Zuzana returned to yoga to rehabilitate and heal, which redesigned her life’s career into sharing the power of yoga with others.
Detailed attention to alignment, healing and therapeutics became a major element of Zuzana’s further yoga education, reflecting in her unique teaching approach. Her smooth sequencing and careful choreography show evident inspiration from her gymnast years.
For the past 15 years, Zuzana has been teaching over 10 classes per week, has published a 5-star rated DVD (available on Amazon and elsewhere), made several TV appearances and has hosted international yoga retreats in Italy, with a renowned chef. Stay tuned for Sept. 2026 when she will be introducing a new retreat in her homeland of Czech Republic.
She is currently preparing a new book and video program and is very excited about sharing her knowledge and passion with Metta members and the students in the Metta Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) program.
