Tension Free is a programme designed to help you melt tension in your body and bring back the experience of freedom and openness.
Tension Free will address all the areas in the body where you tend to get tense, like your back, shoulders, hips, thighs, calves and feet.
You’ll get a deeper understanding of connective tissue, which is called fascia.
You’ll learn simple and effective techniques you can use at home, at work or when you travel to release and relax muscular and connective tissue tension.

Hi! I'm Elena
I’m your teacher, and welcome to Tension Free!
My passion is helping you attain a balanced body: healthy, movable, open and tension-free.
I’ve been teaching yoga full time for over 15 years now, and learned that myofascial release techniques complement yoga practice perfectly.
I’ve been working closely with physiotherapists, osteopaths and chiropractors to develop a method that combines yoga, myofascial release technique, therapeutic exercises and targeted stretches.
I love seeing how effective it is when I teach it to my students. So far I’ve observed the effects in over a hundred retreats and thousands of classes.
The knowledge I’m about to share with you in this training is the best of what I’ve learned and tested over the last decade and a half. It’s both very effective and accessible for anyone interested in tuning up the body to feel and move more freely.
Elena's work has been featured in
Elena first introduced me to myofascial release during one of her incredible Swiss retreats in 2017. I immediately purchased a ball set and have used them almost daily ever since. As someone who spends most of her working hours seated at a desk, I often experience lower back and shoulder pain.
I cannot emphasise enough the benefit of incorporating myofascial release into my practice. So much so, that I recently purchased several additional sets to gift to friends and family.

This could be you
“After a day in front of my computer I know what to do to open my shoulders and balance my neck again”
“I understand my body and how to take care of it to prevent tightness, tension and painful trigger points”
“I feel more open, mobile and at ease in my body – no longer limited in my movement in any way!”
“Now I know how to release my sciatic discomfort and release tight hips and psoas”
“It feels good to be empowered to be my own best massage therapist, and offer my body exactly the practices it needs at the level of intensity that’s right for me on a given day”
What's Inside
Theory classes that will
- Introduce you to fascia, types of fascia, how it works and what it’s made of
- Explain why fascia and muscles get tight and tense, and how we recover from trauma
- Cover psychological components of physical tension in the body (and how to change our stress patterns)
Practice sessions that will
- Teach you on-the-go practices you can do standing up — a great choice if this practice is new to you or you have a sensitive body
- Introduce you to in-depth techniques you can do on your mat — a great choice if you’re more experienced or wish to deepen your practice
- Help you release tightness in your lower body, including your hips, thighs, lower back, hamstrings, calves and feet
- Melt all tension from your upper body, including your shoulders, neck, upper back, middle back and side body
- Offer you delicious deep stretching sessions that target areas you've been working on
I always have my myofascial release balls at hand.
I use them when I feel I’m about to get a headache, when I need to release tension in the body from the day, and even when my busy mind challenges me and I have too many thoughts.
Even 5-10 minutes of myofascial release practice can be very helpful, as the pressure from the balls has an immediate effect. It is as if there is more space between the cells, more space to be in one’s own body. I relax better and afterwards it feels like I just had a massage. Myofascial release practice can even help with stiff neck and lower back issues. It’s pure self-care to spend just 5 minutes a day, it works right away! Lastly, I use myofascial release practices the day after training at the gym to help metabolize lactic acid from sore muscles.

Questions?
Unless you decide to do multiple classes every day (not a bad idea by the way), your average time per day is 10-20 minutes, and you’ll need 2-3 weeks to complete the whole programme
The content is available online, and it is not downloadable. The great thing is that you keep access to the course materials even after the course is finished, and get to enjoy it for 3 months.
Based on the techniques you’ll learn, you’ll be able to enjoy your amazing tension-free body for life.
Absolutely! The materials will be opening up gradually so you don’t get overwhelmed, and you can just take your time to explore the classes at your one tempo so it fits in your schedule and feels relaxing and fun

Pretty much most humans. Those working at their desks, those working with their bodies (from carpenters to yoga teachers), people who do a lot of repetitive movements throughout the day (dentists, violinists), athletes, frequent flyers, and anyone with a tight or tense areas in the body.
