Magda Torres

Magda was born and raised in Colombia where she completed her studies in Fine Arts. Moved by her enormous curiosity for life, desire to travel, and her continuous interest to learn, in 2001 she moved to Barcelona and completed a Master’s degree in documentary filmmaking. Barcelona was her home for a decade where she had the opportunity to work as a producer for film, music and cultural festivals. During this time Magda discovered yoga and meditation, which gave her direction, taught her discipline and dedication, and fueled a life-changing transformation away from unhealthy mind states to a more balanced being. 

Magda has since moved to Berlin and has been living there for the last ten years. In 2012 she decided to make her passion her profession, and as well as teaching yoga and meditation full-time she has also been continuously studying yoga and meditation in Asia & Europe  with remarkable teachers such as Richard Freeman, Noah Mazé, Douglas Brooks, John Scott, Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Martine & Stephen Batchelor and Vinay Kumar, among others. Since 2012 Magda has completed over 2500 hours of teacher training courses, workshops and higher education. 

Through her personal yoga and meditation journey over the past 20 years Magda has learnt to respond to all the challenges that life presents with an open and curious heart, remain grounded whilst honouring her energetic fire, and always maintain a student mindset alongside her love for learning and enthusiasm for life.
