Bianca’s first steps on the path of yoga began at the age of 16 when she decided to become a vegetarian and start a stretching program. For a long time that was all it was, a physical approach to feel good and do something for animals. At 23, she found her way to a Hatha Yoga class.
Since then, the path of Yoga has continued to unfold. During her two year training to become a yoga teacher in the Sivananda Yoga tradition, Bianca increasingly became aware of the deeper levels of yoga. The yogic concept of ahimsa or “love embracing all creation” became a prominent part of her yoga practice, as well as daily life. As a teacher, Bianca loves to watch not only the physical progress of students, but the subtle changes of the mind/soul/body connection. Her teachings reflect her own experiences with Yoga, and are based on classical Yoga scriptures, as well as insights and inspiration gained from: everyday life lessons, the natural world, her background as linguist that fuels her deep interest in the sacred language of Sanskrit, and the mythological depth that lies deep in the heart of Yoga. While she found her “home base” in the Sivananda Yoga tradition, she also embraces the richness of Iyengar Yoga with Wiliam Prottengeier as her main teacher, and enjoys frequent visits into the life-celebrating spirit of “Anusara” Yoga, with Sianna Sherman as the strongest inspiration from this tradition. Her practice and teaching is dedicated to peace and well-being for all creatures – great or small. Email Bianca directly at [email protected] |
