I was born in Uruguay, where I grew up on a farm in a large family with a strong passion for cooking and music. My travels lead me to India and Sri Lanka,
where I discovered N\u0101da Yoga, blending my musical roots with the power of movement and vibration. Later, I studied Thai massage in Chiang Mai deepening my understanding of the body and learning to offer more refined and supportive relaxation practices.<\/p>

Fermata was born 10 years ago during a family holiday in California. I was on the beach with my nieces just playing around yoga asanas when my brother in law, a musician, reminded me of the musical symbol Fermata. In music, a fermata marks a note to be held in a pause at the performer\u2019s discretion. It instantly felt like the perfect fit for my yoga style!

I\u2019ve spent several years in Kalbarri, where yoga has connected me with a wonderful local sangha, while I\u2019ve been cultivating my own little permaculture sanctuary and wellness accommodation at home. The people and the land keep me in tune with the seasons and life\u2019s natural cycles. I\u2019m now embarking
on a career in counselling, as I believe true healing begins deep within the spirit and a conscious mind. Through movement, sound and mindful living I hope to inspire others to reconnect with themselves and the natural rhythm of<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A Note of Gratitude
<\/strong><\/p>

I\u2019m deeply grateful to Teal for creating the space where we could share our passion for Pilates and Yoga in Kalbarri.<\/p>

Thank you to Krystle for the beautiful studio photos that capture the spirit of our practice, and to Lucia for the outdoor images, especially for the laughter we shared when I fell out of poses and for capturing the magic of our coastal cliffs.<\/p>

I\u2019m also grateful to my amazing friends and photo models: Rapha, Lucia, Spencer, Pam, Lucas, Abbey, Tom, Sisa and Alie.<\/p>

A heartfelt thank you to the original sangha from our Saturday morning sessions at the Yoga Barn & biggest fans! Jacki, Andrea, Kristen, Jo, Jane, Wendy, Deb, Sarah, Claudia, Jules Emily and Helen.

Special thanks to Jo Lee for kindly lending us her bolsters for the restorative sessions at the golf club, and to Amy for sharing her beautiful didgeridoo playing during our Nada sessions at the Yoga Barn.<\/p>

My gratitude goes also to the very first ones who came home for a yoga session at the Yoga Barn: Nikki, Nova and Celeste.<\/p>

Thank you for welcoming me into your lives, If it weren\u2019t for you all, I wouldn\u2019t be guiding in a studio today. May your practice continue whether still along Fermata or anywhere you\u2019re rolling out your mat these days.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
