About the teacher
Foremost a student
Bianca is an Authorized Level II teacher by the Paramaguru R. Sharath Jois. It's the traditional authorization to teach the full Primary and Intermediate Sequences. She was learning directly from Guruji Sharath Jois the Advanced A sequence and Pranayama until his passing and has had the opportunity to assist her Guru in Mysore classes. She continues the learning process in Asana and Pranayama from her western teachers, recently holding a certification to teach Pranayama and deepening her studies in Vedanta and Yoga philosophy with her Indian teacher. She took her first Yoga class at the age of 18 when she still lived in Brazil and felt a deep connection to the practice within body and soul. In 2009 she moved to USA to work as a performer for RBBB Circus and few years later the seed that was planted years ago sprouted and she sincerely felt the calling to dedicate herself to the practice of Yoga. She finished her first YTT in Boone,NC. Her first Ashtanga Class was with Guruji Sharath Jois during a USA tour in 2013. She started traveling to Mysore, India in 2015 and since then has been dedicating her life entirely to the practice and studies of Ashtanga Yoga. Traveling internationally, she leads classes, privates, workshops and retreats in the traditional spiritual path of Ashtanga Yoga. She is also a mother and truly understand how family duties and practice affects one another. How discipline, commitment, devotion and dedication are the base of the practice and also the non attachments for results. Believing she is an eternal student of yoga, her joy is to share all the benefits this practice can bring to people's lives, both on and off the mat.
