Yoga as a Bridge to Self-Discovery & Collective Healing
A Practice Rooted in Revolution & Healing
I bring healing into the spaces that once didn’t have the courage to look deeper
Hotels, teams, companies and retreats: places built for doing, now opening room for feeling. My work has grown beyond the traditional idea of a yoga class into private yoga experiences, immersive wellness experiences and retreats, each shaped by the people, place and intention behind them.
Movement as a language of self-trust. Healing as an act of connection.
My approach to yoga & wellbeing
Yoga is more than just a wellness experience — it is an act of revolution. A commitment to redefining healing, breaking free from outdated paradigms, and imagining a world where well-being is more inclusive, intuitive, and deeply personal.
Our world needs new frames, new habits, and more compassion. My vision is to bring together individuals and collaborators who believe in the power of mindful evolution — both online and in-person — to spread this message far and wide.
IStory
Presence before performance. Connection before control
For more than five years, teaching yoga and holding spaces in Barcelona
Yoga begins before movement. It begins with how we arrive: how we breathe, how we listen, and how willing we are to meet ourselves honestly.
Read my story
Over time, I began to notice that people rarely arrived on the mat carrying only their physical practice. They came with stress, transitions, questions, exhaustion, emotional weight — and a desire to feel more connected to themselves. That changed the way I understood teaching.
I found yoga at a time of deep self-inquiry — new country, new language, and a desire to understand the world and myself. Despite the language barrier, the essence of yoga spoke to me in ways words never could. It anchored me, made me more assertive, and showed me the power of self-connection.
My own Ashtanga practice continues to teach me this. The mat becomes a mirror; every day reflects something different. Some days there is strength, some days resistance, some days softness.
The practice is not about forcing the same experience every time, but learning to be present with what is actually there.
Kind words
What people feel
“Yoga classes with Alba are not just classes, they are true experiences. Her holistic knowledge of yoga, relaxed energy, and professionalism make her a true yogi, in and out of class. She guides the classes authentically, inviting you to delve deeper into both the asanas and yourself. Absolutely recommended!”
“It was truly unique and helped me reconnect with both my body and soul in a way I haven’t experienced before. Alba has a remarkable gift for guiding students toward that deeper connection between mind, body, and spirit. I left the class feeling centered, refreshed, and more in tune with myself.”
“Such a serene experience always in beautiful settings and the most amazing teacher and attention to detail. Love xxx”
“Alba’s passion for yoga, spirituality, and self-improvement is truly contagious. After even a session with her, you’ll feel lighter and more positive than when you arrived!! I highly recommend her!”
“The individual and private yoga class with Alba was a very comforting and learning experience. Alba is charming and guides you through the class from the beginner level to the most advanced level. I definitely recommend Alba because I had a very good connection with her, as she helped me improve a lot.”
“We booked a yoga class as part of a hen party celebration, and it was an unforgettable experience! Practicing yoga by the seaside added such a serene and peaceful atmosphere. Our instructor made sure everyone felt comfortable, and it was a wonderful way to relax and connect.”
“Alba is an excellent teacher, her classes are well structured and she transmits her teaching with professionalism. I recommend!”

Beyond the Mat
An Embodied Approach
Feeling different from one day to the next is not necessarily inconsistency. Sometimes, it is information.

I believe wellbeing becomes more meaningful when we allow ourselves to experience it through the whole body.
Alongside yoga, I have explored breathwork, mindfulness, meditation, nervous-system practices and other approaches to embodiment. I am interested in the places where these practices meet — where breath can change our state, where movement becomes a form of listening, and where slowing down creates enough space to notice what we usually move past.
I am also fascinated by our relationship with rhythm and cycles. Our bodies are not designed to operate at the same intensity every day.
What Grounds Me
Less forcing, more listening.
Less performance, more presence.

From Private Yoga Sessions to Retreats
A private yoga session can open a door. A retreat gives us more time to walk through it.
Yoga, breathwork, meditation, embodiment and sensory experiences, with room for something less structured: simply being.

My retreats bring together yoga, breathwork, meditation, embodiment, reflection and sensory experiences, while leaving enough room for something less structured: simply being.
I am especially interested in creating spaces where women can explore different dimensions of their experience — strength and softness, intuition and discernment, expansion and rest — without having to perform any particular version of themselves.
