RYT500

“My passion for yoga and its profound ability to transform began in 2006 while experiencing great freedom in my body after a series of injuries that kept me from enjoying quality of life. I began my yoga studies in 2009 and began teaching classes that vary from Yin, Restorative, Self Awakening Yoga, Heated Vinyasa, Hatha and Creative Therapeutic Recovery and also teach 200/300 hr Teacher Trainings. My intention when teaching is to create an overall feeling of Santosha by guiding students to listen to their inner self and recognize where they have landed in their daily practice. I believe this gives us the strength to keep centered and grounded. I hope to inspire practitioners to move freely with awareness, by being willing to accept where we are in our practice at the present moment. This helps us to intelligently know and heal our minds and bodies through our yoga practice.”

Kathia De La Rosa K.

I am a practitioner and teacher of ViniyogaTM. Viniyoga stems from the teachings of T.K.V. Desikachar (son of Sri T. Krishnamacharya –one of the most influential yoga teachers of the 20th century). As a Viniyoga teacher and certified Yoga for Fertility teacher, I craft practices that suit the needs, condition, and interests of my students using all the tools yoga offers: postures, breath work, chanting, meditation, personal ritual, and study of texts, as appropriate.

I began practicing yoga as a way to prevent my lower back and knee pain from worsening. I discovered that yoga was helping me feel better in unexpected ways. I felt stronger, calmer, and my pain went away. I began to believe that yoga makes things better.
I started teaching yoga in 2007 and continued to notice yoga’s transformative potential.

When I met and started studying with Gary Kraftsow in the Viniyoga tradition, it felt like coming home. Finally, here was a style of yoga that encouraged people to practice yoga based on their individual needs.

My deep faith in yoga continues to grow as I see my students develop stability and ease through their practice and hear them describe the physical, energetic, and mental benefits they are feeling from yoga. I hope you have the experience of yoga making something better in your life. What can yoga do for you today?

Natalie

Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga Training (380hrs) with Sylvie Tremblay at the Montreal Sangha

I was initiated to the spiritual world more than 17 years ago and have since maintained a rigorous, deep and regular meditation practice. At a very young age, I developed an interest in health and well-being and was cured of chronic intestinal problems through diet. I have learned so much about the human body, how it works, and the close relationship between diet and healing. Later, I decided to take a coaching course in personal development to help others regain their power, confidence and harmony with their inner nature, to live a fulfilling life. At the same time, I did a Hatha and Vinyasa yoga training (380hrs) with Sylvie Tremblay at the Montreal Sangha. This training transformed my life and led me to settle in Costa Rica in 2018. For me, yoga goes far beyond the physical because of its global benefits. The practice of yoga is very powerful, not only for healing the body, but also for the spiritual nature of the person. Yoga thus allows the human being to connect with its true nature to make it feel free, fulfilled and happy.

Nikita

Nikita currently dwells between Calgary Canada & Nosara, Costa Rica. In her last decade of teaching yoga, Nikita has explored many different styles and techniques of Yoga Asana & Meditation.

Nikita’s playful inquiry-based classes challenge students to meet themselves at their thresholds with compassion and love, strengthening their internal equanimity. She has assisted teacher trainings at Nosara yoga Institute and currently leads retreats, workshops, public classes, private/semi-privates and Pranassage sessions.

Patrick

Patrick Harrington is living a life that inspires him. A former serial entrepreneur, Patrick once started businesses he thought would earn him enough money to live a life full of meaning and difference making. He was always searching for the means to an end. It wasn’t until yoga teacher training in 2001 that he found a way to combine his love of business with an end in itself.

18 years later, Patrick is the founder, owner of Kindness Yoga, a donation-based collection of studios that hosts scores of teachers and tens of thousands of yoga students annually.

His life has taken on more and more meaning through his committed explorations into his own patterns of living. His classes reflect this intimate and vulnerable process, and allow his students and fellow teachers to relate on a level that transforms. It is though his own healing journey and movement towards living his dharma that leads his yoga teaching, parenting, relationships and business.

Patrick has students, lead teacher trainings and mentored teachers over many years as the owner of Kindness Yoga. “We – as yoga studios and teachers – are not in competition with each other,” he says. “Rather, we are in competition with all the unconscious activities out there.” Patrick believes that yoga will direct culture towards a more awakened strategy of life. He encourages us to wake up to what we want to contribute in this life and “quit messing around and get on with it!”
