In a world often distracted by consumption, competition, and chaos, Dumitriu Ana Elena is using stillness—literal, unwavering stillness—to call for change. Her body holds the plank; her heart holds the world.
Ana is currently attempting to break multiple Guinness World Records related to planking and yoga endurance. But these efforts go far beyond athletic achievement. Her mission is a call to global compassion—for the planet, for the poor, for children without education or basic healthcare, and for the invisible millions we too often overlook.
🔥 Records in Progress – With a Purpose
Ana’s pending record attempts include:
Longest Time in an Abdominal Plank Position – One Arm, One Leg (Female)
Longest Time in an Abdominal Plank Position (Female)
High Plank Shoulder Taps
High Plank Complex Taps (Shoulder, Hip, Knee, Toe)
Longest Chaturanga Hold (Four-Limbed Staff Pose – Female)
Longest Downward Dog Pose Hold (Yoga)
Longest Warrior III Pose Hold (Female)
Longest Eagle Pose Hold (Yoga)
And so many more to follow :)
These feats will be performed in Zanzibar, Tanzania, surrounded by local communities that Ana deeply respects and loves. “The people here deserve to be seen, heard, and loved just like anyone else on this Earth,” Ana says. “Let's break the barriers and just be human. God exists in each of us—no matter what name we give.”
💫 Small Choices, Big Changes
Ana’s journey is rooted in a profound spiritual awakening and personal healing. After battling bulimia, anorexia, alcoholism, addiction to antidepressants, and toxic emotional cycles, she now lives with clarity and conviction—focused on love, faith, and action.
“We must shift focus from me to we. That $10 coffee could instead buy books for 10 children. That cigarette, that drink—what if giving it up meant one more person could have something to eat?”
Her message is radical in its simplicity: you don’t need millions to make a difference. You need awareness, intention, and the willingness to change—first yourself, then the world around you.
