Calia Fernandez
Restorative Yoga
Calia moved to NYC to study fine art and philosophy at The New School, and harmoniously found herself immersed in the tradition, spirit, and community of yoga. After doing housekeeping and front desk work at Now Yoga on Astor Place, she enrolled in their last teacher training under Renata DiBiase and Jana Hicks. Calia then discovered SOUK and was introduced to the Jivamukti Yoga method, crediting much of her zest for anatomy, alignment, and curated music to Rima and Monica.
Seeking to better understand the active-receptive dynamics of the body, she undertook restorative yoga training as a counterpart to balance the rigour of vinyasa. She steadily devotes her personal practice to the exploration of stillness in movement and movement in stillness. She continues to hone her assists, understanding of intelligent sequencing, and absorb the wisdom of yoga philosophy and meditation with the many unique and robust faculty of SOUK.
Described as grounded and dynamic by her first teachers, Calia seeks to cultivate the Daoist practice of effortless effort in all types of movement practices, emphasizing creativity as a discipline, and virtue as the embodied process of becoming.

JIVAMUKTI Yoga Open
Move into advanced postures by injecting the mystical into the physical. Ancient yogis understood that the body comes into the alchemy of movement when instilled with intention, purpose, and connection. Postures are skillfully introduced and sequenced with increasing intensity, infused with non-dogmatic Yoga philosophy, suggestions from one’s own voice as revealed in the chanting of ancient mantras, as well as the all-elusive sound of one’s own breath. Variations to optional advanced poses are offered so practitioners can work at their own level, moving through arm balances, deep hip openers, twists, chest expanding backbends and inversions.
