Gosta (Shunya) was born in Amsterdam. After having studied fashion design at the Academy of Art, he decided to move to New York City to try his 'luck' there. Here in the east village he worked and started going to Jivamukti Yoga center. His teachers David Life and Sharon Gannon inspired him so much with their love for Yoga that he became more and more drawn onto the yoga path . At this time also his intrest for Sanskrit surfaced. He started practicing sincere and soon started visiting Ashrams.

Eight years later, having moved back to Amsterdam where he enrolled in the Iyengar Yoga Teacher Training. Around the same time he starts going to India. The beauty of the Indian Yoga teaching opens his heart. Specially the path of Bhakti (devotional) Yoga finds his heart. In Mysore India he studies Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. He also has his first encounter with Vipassana meditation.

All these aspects make Gosta to a very routined and varied Yoga teacher. He tries to find the similarities in everything , instead of the differences. Currently Gosta is working on his book: "How Yoga ruined my Life?!".
