Nathaly is a certified RYT-500 yoga teacher, meditation and sound wellness facilitator. Her approach is gentle, inclusive, and rooted in self-compassion.

With a master’s degree in biomedical sciences and a background in research, Nathaly brings together a deep respect for the body, the mind, and each person’s lived experience. Her teaching is not about performance or perfection. It is an invitation to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with what feels true.
 

Through yoga, meditation, sound baths, women’s circles, and retreats, Nathaly creates supportive spaces where people can feel welcomed, respected, and gently guided back to themselves.

Compassion · Connection · Courage

These three values guide Nathaly’s work and the spaces she creates through yoga, meditation, sound, women’s circles, and retreats.

Compassion

Compassion is the foundation of Nathaly’s teaching. Her work invites people to soften the inner pressure to perform, to meet themselves with more kindness, and to honour their own rhythm.

Connection

Connection is at the heart of the spaces Nathaly creates — connection with the body, with the breath, with inner truth, and with others in a respectful and meaningful way.

Courage

Courage is the quiet willingness to listen more deeply, to be present with what is real, and to take one honest step toward healing, growth, and self-compassion.

Where Science Meets Presence

With a master’s degree in biomedical sciences and a background in research, Nathaly brings a thoughtful and grounded perspective to yoga, meditation, and sound wellness.

Her teaching is not about performance, perfection, or pushing the body. It is rooted in listening, adaptation, and respect for each person’s lived experience.

Nathaly’s scientific background supports her deep respect for the body and mind, while her long meditation practice brings warmth, presence, and compassion to the spaces she creates.

Community Care Through Yoga & Meditation

Nathaly has shared adaptive yoga and meditation with elderly patients in a local hospital setting. This experience reflects one of the foundations of her work: making yoga and meditation accessible, human, and supportive for people with different bodies, needs, and life experiences.

Her teaching is guided by presence, compassion, and the belief that even simple practices can bring comfort, grounding, and moments of peace.

My Mission

Nathaly’s mission is to make yoga and meditation feel accessible in real life — not as something to achieve, but as practices that can meet people where they are.

Her teaching is shaped by the belief that every person arrives with a different body, a different story, and different needs. Rather than asking students to fit into a fixed practice, Nathaly adapts each session with care, offering options, gentleness, and space to listen inward.

Through yoga, meditation, sound, and self-compassion practices, she hopes to help people find moments of steadiness, clarity, and inner support within the complexity of daily life.

Accessible in Real Life

Practices are offered in a way that can meet different bodies, energy levels, schedules, and life experiences.

Adaptive by Nature

Sessions are adjusted with care, offering options and modifications so each person can practise with more comfort and confidence.

Integrated Into Daily Life

The intention is not only to feel better during the practice, but to carry more presence, steadiness, and self-compassion into everyday life.

Nathaly’s Story

Behind Nathaly’s teaching is a path shaped by meditation, science, life experience, and the ongoing practice of self-compassion. Her work has grown from a deep interest in understanding the body, the mind, and the ways people return to themselves. For Nathaly, yoga was never only about postures. Over time, it became a way of listening more honestly, softening self-judgment, and finding steadiness in the middle of life’s changes. Her background in biomedical sciences and research gave her a deep respect for the complexity of the human body and mind. Her long meditation practice brought another dimension: presence, inner listening, and compassion. Through years of teaching, Nathaly has worked with people arriving with different needs, injuries, emotions, energy levels, and life stories. These experiences shaped the way she teaches — with flexibility, humility, and respect for the person in front of her. Her work has gradually expanded to include gentle yoga, meditation, sound baths, women’s circles, retreats, and accessible practices in community and care settings. Today, Nathaly’s intention is to create spaces where people can feel safe enough to pause, listen inward, and reconnect with what feels true. Her story continues to be guided by the same three values at the heart of her work: compassion, connection, and courage.
