Brief Background
Carolina spent her childhood in Africa and Cyprus, and trained as a dancer in classical ballet and contemporary dance with the Royal Academy of Dance(RAD). She was first introduced to yoga whilst living in Buenos Aires, and went on to practice over the next 7 years before becoming a certified instructor in India. She taught in Thailand, spending two and a half years co-managing an holistic island retreat on Koh Phangan, combining her skills with yoga and meditation, chakra work, reiki, aroma and crystal therapies.
Using her intuition and a gentle hands-on guidance, Carolina 's classes incorporate fluid sequences, synchronizing breath with movement, creating a rhythmic flow to music. This serves to both stimulate and restore energy levels whilst instilling an inner sense of harmony and strength, a world away from the stress and pressures of modern day life. As you progress, you will find yourself becoming more able to take control of, and positively influence your own health, happiness and overall well-being.
Carolina is trained in Sivananda style, she now teaches a Hatha/Vinyasa Flow, choreographed to music.
Having travelled and worked worldwide, she has had interaction with people from all walks of life. Welcoming all levels and abilities, her sessions will leave you feeling calm and relaxed, yet focused and with a sense of empowerment, ready to face any challenges, both on and off the mat!
As a complement, Carolina offers Reiki Therapy, a Japanese technique that balances the body's energies, promotes healing and relaxation, and is a further source of relief from stress whilst improving the body's immune system.
Carolina began teaching under BSYA accredited The Yoga Retreat, then later joined Golden Buddha Resort as their resident yoga instructor and reiki therapist. The resort was voted amongst the top ten eco-resorts worldwide by the Guardian.She ran sessions for the guests during the resort's high season and also ran and organized yoga vacation packages and courses.
"This woman is remarkable. She converted a washed out cynical 50 year old northerner from a person who used to skulk under the trees with a cigarette in his hand into the person who was usually first at yoga class every morning, and who dived into the meditation at the earliest opportunity. You just want to go and work with her-and she can make you laugh as well. The days are better with her!"
