Mercedes

Mercedes Santos began practicing yoga 30 years ago and has been teaching for 18. She especially enjoys teaching older students, and has developed programs that include discussion and practices to support a variety of aging-related needs. Using her knowledge of anatomy and therapeutics she helps students learn to practice with breath awareness and somatic discernment. Mercedes’ commitment to teaching is grounded in her belief that yoga can be valuable and accessible to everyone and that the power of the individual practice is amplified when shared in community.

What to expect in class

Students can expect to move their entire bodies through a range of motion with a focus on balancing and harmonizing the physical and mental energies. Her instructions, which include the use of props and options for modifications, are clear and detailed, with an emphasis on proper alignment and nuanced body/breath awareness. Mercedes’ classes have a feeling of “flow” as she teaches with an emphasis on directing the breath to create smooth transitions and a steady deepening into the poses. In her classes, students often experience greater strength, flexibility and peace of mind than they expected.
