Izabela Marić
Certified Yoga and Yoga Therapy Teacher | Holistic Coach | Founder of Verbasana Yoga Studio | President of the Croatian Yoga Federation | International Retreats & Education Ambassador for Europe at Radiant Coaches Academy, USA

Namaste, my name is Izabela, and I first encountered yoga over two decades ago. I am a certified yoga teacher (RYT200, RYT300, RYT800), yoga therapist (RYT200), and certified Holistic Coach by Radiant Coaches Academy, USA.

As the International Retreats & Education Ambassador for Europe at Radiant Coaches Academy, I am honored to guide transformative journeys for students and clients across the globe. I also serve as a trainer at the Academy, leading certification programs in Holistic Coaching, Chakra Coaching, and Yoga + Meditation Coaching in English, Croatian, and Russian. I am deeply grateful to have had the opportunity to co-author the anthology Radiant Self available on Amazon.

I am the President of the Croatian Yoga Federation, where I organize yoga conferences, celebrate International Yoga Day, and collaborate closely with the Embassy of India.

I founded Verbasana Yoga Studio in Zagreb in 2015, after years of teaching Hindi, Sanskrit, and Russian at StudioNet, a language school I founded in 2008. At Verbasana, I lead Hatha Vinyasa yoga, Vinyasa Flow, Prenatal Yoga, Yoga for Moms and Babies, Kids Yoga, sound baths, individual yoga therapy sessions, and holistic life coaching sessions and workshops.

I have studied yoga, Ayurveda, and yoga therapy for four years under the guidance of Yogacharya Jadranko Miklec at the “Institute for Yoga and Ayurveda Sunce” (RYT800). As an ITEC alumnus, I studied yoga at S-VYASA Yoga University in Bangalore, India (RYT300), under the patronage of the Embassy of India and the Ministry of AYUSH. I also completed my yoga studies at the Gaia Center in Zagreb, Croatia (RYT200).

As a graduate of Indology since 2004, I have traveled to India nearly every year to deepen my understanding of yoga at its source. I have spent more than ten winters in India with my daughter, staying in various ashrams and exploring different styles of yoga.

Since 2022, I have been working toward my long-held dream of creating the Yoga Garden on the Kupa River – a green oasis for practicing yoga and connecting with nature.

I firmly believe that we are the designers of our own lives, the authors of our reality, and the creators of our world. I am honored to assist you on your journey to reconnect with yourself and guide you in building a life rooted in love, purpose, and joy through yoga, meditation, and holistic life coaching.
