"I am a forever student with thirst for knowledge, and my biggest teachers are my students." Eliane Carotta
My first contact with Yoga was in 2002 when I did my first Teacher Training with a GREAT teacher, Reed Taylor, from It's Yoga Miami. Right after an intense month experiencing the “art of unity”, I realized that this was the “medicine” I needed to have to be healthy and help others around me…
Since then, I was honored to learn from great Masters as: Bobbi Goldin, Duncan Wong, Shakta Khalsa, Shiva Rea, Seane Corn, Michael Buck "Mukti" and Mark Whitwell, my greatest inspiration. As my Yoga practice deepen, I started to confirm what my teachers used to say: that I could heal all kinds of injuries, starting from the root of all: our mental stiffness".
Yoga made me see things different, to control my anxiety, to let go feelings of fear and stress, and to heal my physical body just by simply breathing or stretching.
After six years teaching, I decided to experience having my own space, and was honored to buy the first Yoga studio from Miami Beach: Synergy Center for Healing Arts on Española Way. It was a great challenge and responsibility, and I learned a lot with my dear friend and partner at the studio, Victoria Brunacci. The experience was great, but the Universe changed the route and I decided to be on my own again...
Today I teach at the beach, at the street, in a fight center (that I've been teaching for the past four years), at Synergy (of course!), and private sessions around Miami area.
During this almost ten years teaching, I felt in love introducing Yoga to people that never imagined they could do it, and I found two types of students: the ones that prefer a calm and deep stretch, and the ones that like a vigorous class with physical challenge. That's why I developed two styles: Heal Yoga and Sanatura.
Keep surfing on my website and you will find what they are about... CERTIFICATIONS:
Ashtanga Vinyasa (Reed Taylor, It’s Yoga Miami);
Iyengar (Bobbi Goldin, Yoga Institute of Miami);
Yogic Arts (Duncan Wong); and
Radiant Child Yoga (Shakta Khalsa).
My classes have a strong influence from Healing experiences with Indians in Brazil (my home country), as well healing studies in Aromatherapy, Ayurveda, Chromotherapy, Sound therapies, Magnified Healing (Certified) and Reiki (Level II).
FIGHT & YOGA
I am passionate about the fight world and involved since early 90's, when used to train and work with master Fabio Gurgel (Alliance Jiu-Jitsu).
Since 2007 I teach Sanatura Yoga to Fight Sports Team, from Master Roberto "Cyborg" Abreu, where I have the opportunity to interact and improve the style with professional fighters. Some knowledge in Ginastica Natural (from Alvaro Romano), also influenced Sanatura style to help fighters. Sanatura Yoga practice improves range of motion and focus, prevent injuries, and provide relaxing after hard sessions.
From this style, a range of opportunities was open, and I started to teach Yoga to other athletes, as surfers, kite surfers, triathletes, and even lifeguards and fire fighters.
HEALING ARTS
My healing experiences are developed since when I was a teenager while living in my home country (Brazil). Studies in Xamanism, Chromoteraphy, Aromatherapy and Reflexology have a strong influence in my classes, as well as my Certifications in Magnified Healing and Reiki Level II.
I am addicted to workshops about Healing techniques and Healthy nutrition, and lost the count on how many I've participated
I also do Energy Healing therapy to promote relaxation, relief from pain, release of stress/tension, and a delightful sense of well-being, and strongly advice every-body to have at least one session per week!
And as I couldn't forget, I am an animal lover, and must be always connected with the nature to get inspiration and develop environmental and/or social projects to facilitate positive change and help others. Let me know if you want to join me for that too!
