Ece is a psychology graduate (BSc, Goldsmiths University of London) with a Master’s in Neuroscience (King’s College London). She is also a certified Vinyasa yoga instructor (200-hour YTT) and a Compassionate Inquiry trainee.
Ece’s passion lies in combining mind and body practices to support deep healing. Her approach brings together yoga, breathwork, and psychotherapy to help people reconnect with themselves on all levels: mental, emotional, and physical.
Life took her through moments of introspection, transformation, and surrender. Along the way, she realized how much our surroundings, nature, and the people we connect with shape our inner world. Moving to Bali wasn’t just about geography. It marked a shift in how she approached life. Immersing herself in a conscious community and a slower, intentional lifestyle sparked the idea of creating a space for transformation.
Ojas Retreats is the embodiment of Ece’s journey, a sanctuary built on the values of connection, growth, and healing. It’s not just a retreat, but a place to reset, reflect, and realign. Her vision is to hold space for others to find their own way, just as she did.
Ojas is a Sanskrit word meaning vital essence; our inner vitality, strength and radiance.
To us, Ojas is about reconnecting with what makes us feel most ourselves: movement, nature, creativity, play, expression and genuine human connection.
Our retreats are intimate spaces created for women to explore, feel, learn and connect through yoga, surf, therapeutic practices, rituals and shared experiences.
Not to become someone new.. but to feel more connected to who we are.
