Beatriz discovered yoga as part of her journey toward self-growth and spiritual connection. In 2013, she completed her 200-hour teacher training in Costa Rica and has been sharing her practice with students from all walks of life ever since.

Her classes are built on what she calls the G.P.R. Principles: being Grateful for our bodies, Patient with our progress, and Respectful of our limitations. She believes consistency is the key to transformation and encourages her students to show up with kindness and curiosity.
