Sarah-Nada Arfa
ABOUT SARAH:
Sarah-Nada Arfa is a Londoner like many others, a city worker by day, and a yoga teacher, bodyworker and coach by night. After growing up in North Africa, spending her high school years in France, and studying in London, Paris and Bruges, she lived and worked in various European countries, France, Belgium and finally Luxembourg where she discovered yoga . If you bump into Sarah she would always be happy to chat about how there is a yoga style for you, being happy and "doing the magic first", how a life-threatening accident was her wake up call and how breathing, meditation and yoga saved her life.
At TEDxRoyalTunbridgeWells, Sarah will share the idea that anyone can turn their inner turmoil into inner peace in a few seconds and for free. She’ll even show us how.
