Eva Maxine Hamilton

Director of Source Yoga and Lead Yoga Teacher Trainer, Eva Hamilton is a Canadian yoga educator known for her slow, supported, and soulful approach to yin yoga and restorative yoga. She began her first yoga training at just 17 and has been teaching full time since 2008. After many years owning a studio in Canada, she expanded her work to teach internationally.

Eva’s teaching blends gentle guidance with a deep knowledge of anatomy, functional movement, the mind-body connection, and the complex workings of the nervous system. Before entering the yoga world, she studied religious studies at university, which gave her a strong foundation in philosophy and mysticism. Her areas of focus include applied anatomy, yoga philosophy, teaching methodology, posture clinics and alignment, injury prevention, myofascial release, and more.

With more than 1000 hours of yoga study, Eva is registered with Yoga Alliance as a YACEP continuing education provider. Her intention is to create a supportive, nourishing space for self-exploration, with attention to inner experience and an invitation to meet practice with self-empathy, kindness, and curiosity on and off the mat. As a teacher trainer, she aims to raise the standard of yoga teacher trainings by preparing knowledgeable, confident, and compassionate teachers who embody their practice, create safe space, and share the wisdom of yoga in their communities.
