Yuki Sakuma
Yuki’s yoga journey began when she was an undergraduate student in Japan, and it was in her mid-20s when she discovered Ashtanga yoga and committed to a daily practice. Gradually, she noticed the effects of this practice and eventually, she quit her full-time job to take a trip to India to immerse herself in the practice at KPJAYI (currently Sharath Yoga Center). After several annual trips, she was blessed with an Authorization Level 2 by her teacher Sharathji.
Yoga is one of the greatest gifts she has received, providing her with a tool to connect and center herself for a healthy mind-body relationship. The practice of Ashtanga yoga helps her establish steadiness and clarity, revealing what lies within day by day.

Zoe González
Zoe González embarked on the path of yoga seeking to regenerate her connection with the cello and with herself.
Her cello practice was transformed, bringing back creativity to the room and freedom to her imagination - later developing her own method of teaching cello, based on the qualities and behavior of the 5 elements along with pillars such as somatic awareness and spatial perception.
Yoga brought back the recognition of safe place to her body - through presence, openness and compassion. She believes in yoga as a path to transformation; a path to love and authenticity.
In her classes Zoe focuses on generating a space to be with the body - investigating its limits in the present moment.
The waves of the cello support a meditative journey, surfing healing frequencies that activate the parasympathetic system, generating a sense of grounding.
Three concepts settled inside her through a cello masterclass in her studies: balance, purity and simplicity. Seen merely as words written on her wall, embodied as seeds that she waters every day.
David Meijer
In his classes, David uses Eastern training principles in which self discipline and silence, extraordinary sensitivity and strength go hand in hand. In an anatomy class David uses a form of inquiry based on asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking. With his playful and pragmatic approach you’ll acquire insight in the way yoga asanas work on the body. Systemic understanding and independence are more important in his classes than summing up textbook facts.
