About Me
I have been deeply committed to studying and practicing Ashtanga Yoga in Mysore, India, where I received my teaching certification in the Advanced series directly from Parampara Guru Sharathji Jois. Over the years, my practice has evolved into a lifelong path of self-discovery, discipline, and devotion.
Based in Ibiza, I offer classes, workshops, and retreat locally and internationally. My intention is to share the transformative power of Ashtanga Yoga with authenticity and heart, guiding others gently yet steadily toward greater well-being and inner connection.
What is Ashtanga Yoga?
Ashtanga Yoga is a dynamic and systematic practice rooted in an ancient lineage passed down through generations.
More than just physical exercise, Ashtanga is a holistic path that aligns body, breath, and mind, fostering resilience and spiritual awareness. The discipline of this practice supports practitioners in overcoming limitations and awakening their full potential, offering a transformative experience accessible to all committed seekers.
Through regular, dedicated practice, Ashtanga Yoga invites you into a lifelong journey of growth, healing, and self-realization.
