Lady’s yoga journey began in 2009 in Venezuela when a friend invited her to join a yoga class in the park after her day job as a digital media coordinator for an international NGO. She felt deeply connected to mother earth while practicing yoga for the first time. Little did she know then that she would become a yoga instructor about 10 years later in Dublin, where she would complete her 250 hrs training in Samadhi Yoga Studios.

Lady has been living in Ireland since 2013. She’s a mother of a 4-year-old little girl, and her yoga practice is the only thing that grounds her and makes her feel at home. Her practice helps her deal with the challenges of motherhood and to cope with anxiety and depression as well.

Lady thinks each yoga class is like a story tale written by the soul of a yoga instructor and deeply felt by the body and mind of a yoga student looking for something within. She believes yoga is not just about stretching your back and legs, but ultimately is about connecting with your breath and gently letting go of the stress of your daily routine. To Lady, yoga is also about cultivating mindfulness and a sense of divine presence from the sacred space of the heart.

Sometimes our job could be one of the reasons we become anxious, making our bodies feel tense, especially our backs and hips when sitting for long periods.

Lady believes every organisation and company needs to offer a well-being plan to help their employees release stress on a regular basis, become more mindful and increase productivity. That’s why she’s starting to offer this service.
