ELIANE CAROTTA
Born in São Paulo, Brazil, I moved to US in 2002 working in the Communication's industry (my graduated from, Communications, and since I was always passionate and involved with the holistic and wellness world, one day I decided to do a Yoga Teacher Training and see how I felt..
The 200hs of Yoga teachings in between 8 daily hours managing a restaurant was a mental and physical challenge that made me feel stronger and sparkled my interest in this amazing art. It was something different, with a deeper meaning and purpose that, without knowing, I was looking for.
Getting certified in Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga from Professor Reed Taylor at It's Yoga was the first step for the rest of my journey in the Yoga lifestyle..
"After an intense month practicing the "art of union" for more than 10 hours a day (between theory and practice), I realized that this was the " medicine " I needed to be healthy and help others around me ... "
My journey was just starting..
I wanted to explore different styles and teachers.. so I started my first year teaching friends for donations and doing different courses:
I got certified from great masters as Bobbi Goldin (Iyengar Yoga) 90hs, Duncan Wong (Yogic Arts) 90hs, Shakta Khalsa (Radiant Child Yoga) 90hs, and Michael Buck "Mukti" (Thai Yoga Bodywork), participated in workshops and conferences with experienced teachers such as Dharma Mittra, Shiva Rea, Seane Corn, and Mark Whitwell, whom I consider a great inspiration.
"As my Yoga practice deepened, I began to confirm what some of my teachers used to say: that I could heal all kinds of injuries, starting from the root of all: our mental rigidity. Yoga has made me see different things, control my anxiety, lose fear, decrease stress, and also heal physical injuries."
After six years teaching, I became one of the owners of Synergy Yoga Center, which was the first yoga studio in Miami Beach and experienced the business and interaction in the Yoga industry in another level and perspective.
"It was a great challenge and responsibility, and I learned a lot. The experience was great, but the Universe changed the route and I decided to continue my Yoga journey in a different way .."
From 2012 to 2014 I lived in California, where learned and improved as a Yoga instructor among Brazilian Jiu-jitsu athletes and developed the Sanatura Yoga style, a mix of functional exercises and yoga sequences focused on alignment and hip openings.
I am currently back in Miami teaching professional athletes, deepening my studies in Ayurveda and opening my boutique studio: Sanatura Yoga & Healing Arts.
My classes have a strong influence from healing experiences I've had while living and venturing in Brazil: Aromatherapy, Chromotherapy, and Sound Therapy, to name a few.
I am a Certified Master in Magnified Healing and Reiki Level II.
"AFTER OVER 15 YEARS TEACHING AND HEALING, I CAN SAY THAT I AM AN ETERNAL STUDENT LIVING THE YOGA LIFESTYLE.
AS AN ANIMAL ACTIVIST AND AN UNCONDITIONAL LOVER OF NATURE, MY CONNECTION WITH GAIA IS WHAT GIVES ME THE ABILITY & SENSIBILITY TO CONNECT WITH MY STUDENTS AND ENGAGE THEM IN A CONSCIOUS PATH WITH THEMSELVES & THE ENVIRONMENT.
I AM DEEPLY THANKFUL FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE MY KNOWLEDGE WITH THE ONES AROUND ME, AND LEARN EVERYDAY A BIT MORE OF WHAT I TEACH. Namaste "
Feel invited to connect! Let's practice, learn and evolve together!
Shanti Om! Jah love! Shalom! Salam! Aloha!

SANATURA YOGA
Sanatura Yoga & Healing Arts was always a philosophy that turned into a livelihood and evolves everyday.
Our classes offer different practices and opportunities to explore and learn about each individual.
We believe that Yoga is far beyond stretching over a mat.
We use a holistic approach and the small classes (online or outdoors) format, to focus on the individual needs, while offering drops of therapeutic tools that surround the Yoga lifestyle, as Meditation, Ayurveda and Essential Oils, to improve bodies in all levels: physically, mentally and energetically.
The Method
Developed by Eliane Carotta since 2004, this method was inspired while she taught professional athletes (specially fighters) and special needs (seniors and injured individuals) that needed therapeutic sequences to heal and strength.
Yoga classes have always the same format with different levels of practice depending on the students:
PRANAYAMA (BREATHING) - ASANAS - GUIDED RELAXATION
Meditation is a big part of Sanatura. It is strongly advised and complimentary offered to all members and students.
Why Small Classes
Yoga classes have to be focused on the student's INDIVIDUAL NEEDS, not just as a practitioner or somebody that wants to stretch and distress, but as somebody that besides the physical postures, breathing techniques and relaxation methods, wants to have a life experience in Yoga, Meditation and/or Energy Healing techniques.
Sanatura PRIVATE LESSONS are a great way to learn with a partner or friend, and may include up to three people!
"Once yoga changed me as a person, bringing me inner peace and helping to focus better on my goals, it can also change YOU, for your individual needs in your special timing". Eliane Carotta

Testimonials..."Eliane Carotta before anything is a great person, someone whose character generates great inspiration. I had the "present" of having Eli working with me and my TEAM since I arrived in Miami in 2007. Years which I felt in love for Sanatura/yoga after seeing all benefits it brought to athletes in general, making it a huge part of my gym. I sign with folded eyes about anything coming from her!" Roberto "Cyborg" Abreu - BJJ World champion and leader of Fight Sports/ The Avengers Team |
"I started in Yoga more than 20 years ago with Professor Orlando Cani still in Rio de Janeiro, with the idea of improving my performance as an athlete, learn how to breathe, and it made all the difference in my career. Not long ago, I visited Miami and had the happy experience of sharing the mat with her, my good friend and former student of Jiu-jitsu. I her journey in US, she is really dedicated entirely to Yoga, working with fighters essential, and helping those who want to achieve a high conscious level in the body and thus evolve in different aspects of the fight! I recommend everyone to have the opportunity to learn from her, to do so!" Fabio Gurgel - Jiu-jitsu World champion and leader of Alliance team |

If you are serious about Yoga you know It can be hard to find a good yoga studio. I feel like I'm always searching for the "right" one. At Sanatura they really seem to care about people learning the practice - I've found Sanatura to be a really friendly, non-intimidating, encouraging environment. Eliane explains everything thoroughly, comes around to each person in class numerous times to give individual attention, checks your posture, and adjusts you. Her sense of humor and positivity also really contributes to the class. Sanatura Yoga was definitely my favorite studio in Miami by far!"
Saulo Campos - EMT/ Lifeguard with the Miami-Dade Fire Department's Ocean Rescue Bureau |
"Eliane is one of the best Yoga teachers I know! I have been practicing Yoga for about 12 years off and on in different places but when took Eliane’s class for the first time at Fight Sports, I knew she was the one for me. Her positive energy resonates throughout her class. She truly understands how to get the best out of all her students whether novice or advanced. If you are looking for someone to change your life for the better start practicing with her!" Walter Daniel Javier - Miami Dade Firefighter |

"I've been taking Yoga classes with teacher Eliane Carotta since beginning of 2010. She integrates Yoga and breathing exercises with meditation techniques and Reiki. I have suffered from chronic lower back pain and find Carotta's approach to healing very unique and helpful. I highly recommend this class not only for chronic pain but also for any stress related issues." Iara Watlington - Language teacher |
"I fell right at home with everybody, despite the fact I had no idea what I was doing at first. Eliane is wonderful. She is an amazing teacher, and she is so positive and fun. Everybody in the class seemed to enjoy themselves, as did I. It brings you peace and whole experience extremely relaxing.
I have a hard time releasing stress, and this was the perfect outlet to let go of all the stress from the week. It's the perfect amount of stretching, breathing, and working your body. You will be relaxed. You will be sore. But, you will feel like a whole new person afterwards. Eliane is a great teacher, and she makes everybody feel at home and comfortable in her class. There were smiles all around the room. Love your classes Eli and will always refer my friends so they can feel as good as feel when I do your classes."
