Tend Your Yoga Garden

Practice Yoga with me this summer

Hello Beautiful People,


Happy Fourth of July!


I hope you will tend your yoga garden this summer and watch your practice grow.


See below for opportunities to practice together  and **don't miss special opportunity to practice with my teacher Rosa Santana, a Senior Iyengar Yoga Teacher and Yoga Therapist will be coming to the studio July 15 to teach us inversions- going upside-down safely. Not to be missed! So much going on, this season, please scroll to the end <3


NEW CLASS- Yoga Mondays at 10am all summer long


You are invited to practice yoga with me from the comfort of your own home, with all the props and goodness.


I am subbing for my teacher at YogaRosa and this is a special opportunity to practice poses we can't do in our regular classes. With the help of all the props we can really play! Look around your home to find your props:


    a wall for support

    a chair, any chair will do

    sturdy pillows, couch cushions or bolsters

    at least 2 folded blankets or towels

    a strap or belt 


Grab your zoom device and we are set to play and use support to find ease and create new shapes with our bodies. I study Iyengar Yoga, which is characterized by anatomically sound alignment, methodical sequencing, and the use of props. One of the best things about it is that you can customize a pose and stay there. BEING in the pose is what brings the vitality and health benefits.


If you can't make the live zoom class, just sign up to receive the recording!

Inversions workshop

Going upside down is so good for us, that's why headstand and shoulderstand are known as the King and Queen of yoga postures.


Join Rosa Santana, from Yogarosa, on this journey of exploration focused on inverted postures. Inversions purify the body, quiet the mind and stimulates the intellect. They teach humility and cultivate courage, leading the practitioner to a more spiritual life.This class is geared to all levels of practitioners.


Iyengar Yoga is characterized by anatomically sound alignment, methodical sequencing, and the use of props. Please join me in welcoming my teacher to the Inner Balance family <3 and take advantage of this growth opportunity!

Teacher's Workshop

This special class is designed specifically with the teacher in mind. It will be a safe space for teachers to ask questions about modifications for various conditions, the use of props, and effective language. Teachers are also encouraged to ask for help in their own practice regarding injuries, pain, and challenges with poses.

This is the story of our Mom & Daughter business 💕

My daughter Paola is a 11y old autistic girl, because of her autism she has communication challenges. And the way she likes to express herself is through her drawings. In her drawings you can see into her beautiful world of happiness, innocence and creativity 🌈🖍️ 💜🐻✍🏻

This past summer she joined a non-profit organization named Shake-A-Leg Miami, where she did lots of water activities. We made a few bathing suits and tees with her owns designs for her to wear. She was so happy wearing her own designs!! And everyone at the summer camp loved them too. So we decided to start a Mommy and Daughter business together, doing very fun and unique clothing designs for kids, to not only help her with her future as an autistic adult, but also helping this great organization.

We loved Shake-A-Leg Miami summer camp so much that we want to donate a percentage of the profits to them! Shake-A-Leg Miami focuses on building an inclusive community built around water sports, the environment & personal fulfillment. With their unique lineup of adaptive water sports, they offer adults and children with physical and intellectual disabilities many ways to be involved in their communities and many ways to show who they really are 🤗

Shop for a special cause 💗

Thank you,
Paola & Rosi

Yoga Expo Returns
By Diana Dalton 03 Feb, 2023
It took me many years to start practicing yoga consistently. I would take a class and then be so sore that I wouldn't return, sometimes for months! This went on for years until 2002, when my mom was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. I knew deep in my heart that I needed to change my lifestyle or I would be facing the same situation. Fear is an excellent motivator! I knew I couldn't make these big changes on my own. and I also knew Yoga was an entire blueprint for healthy living, even if I was pretty fuzzy (ignorant) on the details. I took a leap of faith and signed up for Teacher Training at Synergy Yoga in Miami Beach to deepen my practice and find out what all this yoga business was about. I graduated in June 2005 and began teaching immediately. 18 years later, I can say with confidence it was one of the smartest decisions I ever made. I am healthier, stronger and have more ease and freedom in my body and mind than I ever could have imagined. Yoga works, you just have to do it! The first ethic in yoga is ahimsa or nonviolence. Had I known this when I started practicing, I might have been more gentle with myself, not pushed so hard, and been so sore that I did not return for months... I say might, because that person was pretty rigid- in body and mind- so maybe I wouldn't have gotten the message! While we might come to yoga for any number of physical reasons, trust that the practice infuses all aspects of your being and life. It really is a gift, a gift I treasure so much I've made it my life's work to share it with you. May you learn from my mistakes without having to repeat them. I invite you to start on your own yoga journey. Join me for Yoga 101 Miami, let's be healthy together!
