Sumukhi Devi (Kristina Lanuza)
“Invent thousands of ways to question yourself…and to experience the unity and identity of the individual existence with cosmic existence.”
“Yoga has an endless toolkit of practices to keep our minds calm, our hearts happy, our bodies healthy and our spirits free. I teach so that I can help everyone mine the infinite wealth and wisdom of yoga within.”
Sumukhi, Kristina Lanuza, has been teaching and practicing yoga for over 25 years. She is highly influenced by Yoga-Vedanta, Sanskrit and the teachings of Shri Brahmananda Sarasvati, Dr. Ramamurti S. Mishra, M.D., the founder and Guru of Ananda Ashram in Monroe, New York.
She offers yoga from the fullest perspective of the practice and philosophy, bringing the 3 main branches of the yogic path - Jnana (wisdom), Bhakti (devotion) and Karma (Service) - into reality and practical daily life.
Music is an integral part of her offerings and she weaves song, laughter and story-telling into her teaching style to give everyone a deeper experience of yoga and the Self.
She has worked in the largest ad and public relations agencies in the world and has extensive experience building and maintaining software, e-commerce and web applications for companies such as Dell, Charles Schwab, National Instruments and more.
