Amanda Zdanowicz initially stepped onto the mat in her twenties inspired by the physical benefits of the practice, but soon discovered a sense of peace and grounding that has kept her returning to the mat ever since.

Her passion for yoga developed as she experienced different styles and traditions and began to explore the deeper teachings, and for 15 years she became a dedicated practitioner while maintaining a successful corporate career.

After completing her first teacher training in the Anusara tradition with Julie Smerdon in 2011, Amanda eventually left the corporate world in 2014 to realise her dream of establishing SoHo Yoga. She has since completed over 1000+ hours of training and studies with local and international teachers including Shiva Rea, Sarah Powers, Elena Brower and Anodea Judith.

Amanda’s classes incorporate contemporary themes that empower students to take their practice off the mat and into their daily lives. She teaches heart-oriented, alignment based vinyasa yoga, and mindfulness based yin & restorative yoga for all levels and regularly runs teacher trainings, workshops and hosts retreats.
