Anya Pereira

I came to yoga in my twenties, sceptical and stiff. Twenty years later it is the language I think in. I completed my 200hr YTT through Sivananda in Kerala in 2008, then a 500hr Yin certification with Sarah Powers, and ongoing study in trauma-informed yoga with David Emerson at the Justice Resource Institute. My classes are slow. I teach Yin, Restorative, and gentle Vinyasa, mostly to people in their forties and fifties who have been told their bodies are wrong. They are not. I work in Lisbon's Príncipe Real and online for those I have already met in person.
