Why Iyengar Yoga?
Benefits
Iyengar Yoga emphasizes the alignment of the body, breath, mind and spirit within each pose.
This precision increases strength, endurance, balance, and flexibility. Prevents injury, maximizes benefits, and provides a deep sense of well-being.
The cultural perspective involves the identity of symbols. The uses of words that are related to the image, the use of heroes in the image, etc. are the symbolization of the image. The cultural perspective can also be seen as the semiotic perspective.

The "sequencing" aspect

About Me
I practice yoga to find peace. When I am at peace with myself, then I am at peace with the world around me. My yoga practice brings me well-being on a physical level and self-reflection on a mental level. The tranquility of the mind and the vitality of the body sharpen my focus and shape my attitude towards life. The fruits of practice help me grow old with gratitude.
I practice because of the responsibility that I have towards my students to refine my own practice and my understanding towards problems that arise in class, that students present to me. The questions they pose. Practice is the cornerstone of my teaching, it provides guidance in my life, and it is what I love to do.

What my students say ...
These are some of their opinions:
EUGENIA BLANCO
"I love it, it relaxes me, it calms me down, it teaches me ... My best plan of the week. Thank you for your patience, your interest in transmitting your knowledge and for being such a good teacher!"
ANA BROWN
"I do a lot of yoga in the UK and I was in Nueva Andalucía for a few days. I went to Carola's class, which was a restorative yoga class for several students. At first I thought she was going to do something different but I stayed when she took the time to explain what she was doing. It was a wonderful therapy class. The temperature in the well-equipped room, perfect. It is obvious that she is an experienced and talented teacher and she broadcast her class in both Spanish and English."
THERESA EKMAN
"Carola is a very straightforward yoga instructor who focuses on doing the poses correctly. She is not afraid to correct her students, which is what I like. She is caring and positive in approaching her as she tries to help people improve. I have learned a lot in class from her and I definitely recommend her. She is the best teacher I have ever had."
