about Sylvia

At my very first Yoga class, I felt an authenticity deep inside myself that I didn't have a way to access previously. Yoga became part of my life and many years later I received my teacher certification at Kripalu Centre in Massachusetts.

My teaching & learning continues to be informed and enriched by courses, workshops and retreats. I have graduated from yoga therapy training with Leila Stuart at Centerpoint Yoga Therapy School. I went to India to travel and study yoga therapy at Yoga Raksanam in the Krishnamacharya tradition.

I am particularly interested in the therapeutic & restorative potential of Yoga as a valuable healing modality. As well as my regular classes, I enjoy working with seniors and other clients developing specific programs for their needs.

Sharing the wisdom of Yoga is a joy to me & I aspire to facilitate comfort and ease in each class, so that the health benefits, - mental, physical and Spiritual - can be felt and realized.
