CLASSES

 
 

My intention for this year is simple, and it is also my wish for each of my students: for the practice to be truly transformative. And that happens through regularity, presence, and commitment.

“Change leads to disappointment if it is not sustained. Transformation is sustained change, and it is achieved through practice.” ~ B.K.S. Iyengar

SCHEDULE 2026/27

  • Monday — 6:30–8:00 PM · In-person (Moksha Pilates Studio - R. Alvares Cabral, 50, Porto)

  • Wednesday — 6:30–8:00 PM · In-person (Moksha Pilates Studio - R. Alvares Cabral, 50, Porto)

  • Trial classes: open throughout the year — anyone who would like to try a class with me is welcome to do so at any scheduled class, with prior booking required. If it is an in-person class, there’s a symbolic price (if you have never practised yoga before, I recommend joining a class at the beginning of the month). If it is an online class, it is free (recommended for those who already have some yoga experience and have props at home).

Classes are taught in Portuguese and/or English, depending on the students present.
As groups are small, every student receives personalised attention.
Prior booking is required at iyengarporto@gmail.com


“Change is not something that we should fear. Rather, it is something that we should welcome. For without change, nothing in this world would ever grow or blossom and no one in this world would ever move forward to become the person they’re meant to be.” ~ B.K.S. Iyengar
