Wishing to deepen her practice and learn more about yogic philosophy, Ana headed to India for her first 200 hr Teacher training in 2017. Overwhelmed with the first experience and seeking for her equilibrium, in early 2018 she decided to fly back to India for a Yin Teacher Training. Ana is certified in Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin and more recently she got her first certification in Rocket Vinyasa with David Kyle. Ana’s classes are very yang: strong, energetic, energising and fun! She likes to challenge her students on both the physical (asana) aspects of yoga and philosophical aspects as well.
