Midsummer Yoga Retreat with Petri Räisänen in Swedish Lapland














Wambui Njuguna

Wambui Njuguna (November 29th, 1980) was born in Kenya and moved to the United States in 1991. She discovered the therapeutic benefits of Hatha Yoga in 1995 while studying modern dance at the North Carolina School of the Arts, and continued to practice yoga throughout college and graduate school, to complement the various forms of dance and martial arts she was involved in, such as capoeira, samba and Afro-Brazilian dance.

Wambui was introduced to Ashtanga Yoga in 2008 while working as an English language instructor in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. She credits her first teachers, Jeff and Harmony Lichty (Ashtanga Yoga Victoria) for starting her off on the spiritual path, following in the direct method of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois.

In 2009, Wambui moved to Helsinki, Finland and has been working with Petri Räisänen, teaching and learning this ancient tradition, which continues to be the source of genuine transformation in her life.
