A space for movement, resilience, vibrancy, holistic health, and community
I'm a Yoga Alliance E-RYT certified in Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin, Yoga for Athletes, Trauma-Informed Yoga and TriggerPoint for Myofascial Compression Techniques for Injury Prevention and Better Movement. I also lead Guided Meditation to individuals and corporations for stress management.
My style and philosophy is mindful alignment-based therapeutic movements to create a nurturing environment and to inspire you to move into your full potential for healing and growing. I believe in a holistic approach that yoga is a gateway of stepping into your intuition and shedding away the ego so you can trust, love and embrace the wisdom of your body.
I'm a positive spirited soul, a life lover and an innovator. I hold a vibrant space to come together to grow, to center yourself and to stretch your mind for a healthy and balanced lifestyle. I take a holistic approach to healing and committed to uplift, to give back, and to live life to the fullest.
In Health,
Greta Recinto
