Yoga is not an ancient myth buried in oblivion. It is the most valuable inheritance of the present. It is the essential need of today and the culture of tomorrow.

The yoga we know today was developed as a part of the tantric civilization that existed in India more than 10000 years ago. In archaeological excavations made in Indus Valley at Harappa, now in modern Pakistan, many statues have been found depicting deities resembling Lord Shiva and Shakti performing various asanas and practicing meditation. According to mythical tradition, Shiva is said to be the founder of yoga and Parvati, his first disciple.
Yoga is the science of right living and, as such, is intended to be incorporated in daily life. It works on all aspects of the person: the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
The word yoga means "unity" or “oneness” of the individual consciousness or Soul with the Universal Consciousness. On a more practical level, yoga is a means of balancing and harmonizing the body, mind and emotions. This is done through the practice of asana, pranayama, mudra, bandha, shatkarma and meditation. And must be achieved before union can take place with the higher reality.
" Tatiana te voy a describir mi experiencia durante y desde que te conozco en las clases: - Tú y tus clases transmiten paz desde el minuto uno - cada clase se aprende cosas nuevas y se mejora - eres una gran persona - exactitud en horarios y clases muy completas - he realizado clases de yoga con otras personas y no son lo mismo, tú eres especial. Namaste "
" More than two years I practiced Yoga with Tatiana in Naples, Italy. In my opinion Tatiana is a great instructor, I really enjoyed the training! Thank you very much Tatiana! "
" Tatiana is a special yoga teacher. She made me love yoga and opened up a new world for me. Thanks Tatiana. "
" Tatiana is a great yoga instructor. She's the kind of teacher we all want; one who explains, demonstrates, and facilitates a positive session. Extremely knowledgeable in yoga, she offers variations and progressions for all skill levels, encouraging participants to challenge themselves when able. After each class I feel rejuvenated and relaxed. I feel lucky to have her as my instructor. "
" Tatiana transmits relaxation and serenity in her yoga classes. The whole body stretching is present in her classes. "
" I was lucky enough to practice Yoga with Tatiana for more than a year in Spain. For me it was the first time. She attends all levels, achieves that connection with her students that gives them self-confidence and shares her knowledge every day. Without hesitation I will return to her classes. Thank you very much Tatiana for sharing your light. "
" We had a wonderful class during the very beginning of Covid lockdown in Spain. It was incredible to slow down, relax , feel connected and grounded. Such a wonderful experience. Thank you! "
" Yoga classes have contributed to our quality of life. Over the years we have thought back to a specific learning principle from your class. It may be related to a specific breathing technique that we learned or the anatomical reason for a particular activity or the function of a particular pose. While we have enjoyed and learned much from all of our various yoga classes, your classes seemed to have that direct link to true and authentic yoga practices from India. Thank you for your instruction. Hope you are well! Namaste! "
" I've been going to Tatiana's yoga classes for about six months and I've been impressed with her professionalism but mostly with her unique way to reach each one of us. She teaches with humbleness, patience and lots of attention to our needs, encouraging through gentle corrections. I've noticed improvements in my body's flexibility, balance and muscle tones as well mental and emotional transformation. Excellent instructor, I enjoy the good vibes and the passion she shares with us giving the experience of wholeness, inner peace and restoration. Definitely the best teacher ever! "
" Tatiana is an amazing yoga instructor. I have been going to her yoga class at Naval Base Rota for almost 2 years now, and it has made a huge impact on my overall well-being. I love going to her class 3 times a week. I wish to be able to continue practicing yoga with her as long as I can. There is something about her special melodic soft voice that I can't never forget. Thank you for being so kind! Namaste "
" I found yoga by accident, I was at the base gym and saw a sign for yoga classes. I went and asked Tatiana if I could join the class. From the first moment I met her she acted really professionally and seemed to care about her students. Three and a half years later I am completely hooked, my first impression was right and I have realised she cares a lot. Her classes are exceptional, the tranquility and relax she brings and passes down to us is superb. She is the best. "
" I realize just how lucky I was to find such a grounding, compassionate and inspiring yoga teacher. Yoga classes with Tatiana are one of the first things I will miss after I leave Rota, Span. Tatiana is a fantastic teacher that teaches in a way that makes it accessible for everyone. Her directions are clear and precise so you’re not looking up to check you’re doing the right thing. She’s very observant, constantly checking you’re positioning. Her classes are truly for all levels, and although you’ve worked hard you’ll somehow come out relaxed. When I joined her class I knew absolutely nothing about yoga, but I now have a solid understanding of physical alignment and generally the way my own body moves! As I got to grips with my quirks (the things I can and can’t do) - Tatiana gently pushed me to develop, always knowing when I was capable of doing a new pose before I realized it myself. Thank you for the last couple of years, Tatiana. You’re a game-changer of a teacher and I now consider these three classes as essential parts of my week. "
