Carla’s passion for yoga began in Canada in 2011 as a daily stretch and warm up for snowboarding. She found by practicing yoga, every aspect of her life became more fluid, and everything began to fall into place. According to Carla, “The more I practiced yoga, the calmer and more connected I felt, and everything in my life began to improve. I became less reactive to outside influences, and felt like I had finally gotten out of my head and back into my body.” Carla completed her first Yoga teacher training in 2013 and hasn’t stopped training, teaching, learning and growing since. Carla’s goal in every class is to help her students build mind-body connection, to help everyone feel and function as best they can, for as long as they can. As a 500hr registered yoga teacher with over 2000 hours of yoga teacher trainings and workshops, and her Bachelor of Health Science in Acupuncture qualification, Carla draws on her knowledge of energy, anatomy and alignment to ensure a safe and holistic practice for longevity. Her classes may challenge you. Not just physically, but also mentally. Learning to let go of expectation and break through the barriers of doubts and fears the mind often creates, allows the body the freedom to move with ease. When we release expectation from the mind and allow the breath to be our guide, we find ourselves doing and experiencing things we never thought possible.
