ANDREA - a full time Yoga, Pilates and Tai Chi instructor.

I fell in love with yoga over seven years ago, when I got a Nintendo DS and bought a game called Let's Yoga. From then, I began 'playing' yoga everyday, sometimes twice a day. At first, the practice was more physical for me, but after few months I started to really count on yoga to bring me a sense of calm during especially chaotic days. Soon after, I began recognizing the benefits of a regular asana and meditation practice and continued to incorporate yoga daily - not just during times of chaos. I found myself feeling more energized, more compassionate, happier, and with more awareness. Now, I teach full-time and couldn't be happier to do what I love. What began as a physical practice for strength and flexibility quickly became a lifestyle. I teach my students to take their yoga off the mat and apply the principles learned in the class to their lives outside of the studio. I do not only teach my philosophy, I live it.

Tai Chi Beginning of the Fan Form

I teach Tai Chi, too... :)

The classes are brilliant and I teach a great group of people. Some of them liked my fan when they saw me practicing my wing chun form, so I decided to introduce a weapon in our classes and we are slowly learning the beginning of the tai chi fan form. It is a form I put together, because we don´t have much space for the proper forms, but I still think it looks ok :) we have to be creative and the point is that we need to be able to do it with a class full of people in a way the don´t hurt each other.
