Venus Olla

Venus Olla is a mother, educator and contemplative practitioner. She is a Relationship and Life Coach and is currently  a Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying). She is trained in yoga, meditation and therapeutic touch, an energy modality.

​She is a passionate believer in the use of contemplative practices, such as yoga, meditation, journaling and mindfulness as tools for inner transformation.

She has been a professional educator for over 17 years; working as a Counsellor for at risk youth, a high school Teacher and an Instructor at the University of Windsor. She has an Engineering degree, Masters in Molecular Biology and a Doctorate in Education. Her strong ability as an educator allows her to develop and deliver workshops in a professional and effective manner.

 Her desire to facilitate others in self-care for their minds, bodies and spirits has been ignited through the benefits she has experienced through her own personal practices. This has been the driving force behind the creation of Alafia Retreats.
