Yoga studio · Miami, FL · Est. by the sea
I'm Anamaria. I teach yoga the way mornings are supposed to feel in Miami — unhurried, sunlit, with salt in the air. Private one-on-one sessions, small classes that never feel crowded, and sunrise practice on the sand when the city is still quiet.
No mirrors, no shouting, no pretending you're flexible already. Just breath, alignment, and a teacher who watches how you move.
About the practice
I started teaching because I kept meeting people who thought yoga wasn't for them — too stiff, too busy, too late in life to begin. So I built the studio I wished existed: small rooms, real instruction, and time to learn one pose properly instead of rushing through twenty. My classes borrow their rhythm from this city. We start slow while the light comes up, we work when the heat builds, and we rest long at the end because rest is part of the practice, not a reward for surviving it. If you've never done yoga, the foundations course is where you begin. If you've practiced for years, private sessions are where the details finally get personal. Either way, you leave knowing your body a little better than when you walked in.

Sixty or seventy-five minutes built entirely around you. We start with a conversation about your body, your goals, and anything that hurts or worries you, then practice with hands-on adjustments and cueing tuned to your alignment. Ideal for beginners who want a foundation, athletes cross-training, or anyone working around an injury.
The classic held-pose practice. We move slowly, hold each shape for five to eight breaths, and I walk the room adjusting alignment. A genuinely small group — never more than ten mats — so you still get seen. Best first class if you're new.
Breath-linked movement that builds heat: sun salutations, standing sequences, balances, and a long cool-down. Expect to sweat a little and think a lot less. Modifications are offered for every transition, so strong beginners are welcome.
Floor-based, prop-supported, quiet. Yin targets deep connective tissue with three-to-five-minute holds; restorative lets the nervous system fully stand down. Bolsters, blankets and blocks provided. The class people take when life has been loud.
A four-week course that teaches you the twenty poses you'll meet everywhere, plus how to breathe through them and how not to hurt your wrists in downward dog. Small cohort, same faces each week, plenty of questions. Graduates move into any small-group class with confidence.
Saturday mornings on the sand: a gentle sixty-minute flow timed to the sunrise, then ten minutes of seated meditation while the beach wakes up. All levels, mats optional (a big towel works). If weather turns, we move to the studio and I text everyone by 6:00a.
Forty-five minutes of breathwork and seated meditation — no asana, no flexibility required. We practice a few traditional breathing techniques, then sit. People come for the calm and stay because their sleep gets better. Chairs available; sitting on the floor is never mandatory.

Everything starts with a twenty-minute intro call — free, no sales pitch. I ask about injuries, experience, and what you want practice to do for you. Then we book.
Way in — 02
Saturday 7:00a on Miami Beach. We practice on the sand facing the water — an all-levels flow, then meditation as the sun clears the horizon. It is the least "studio" thing I teach and the most Miami thing I do.
Bring a towel or mat, water, and sunscreen already applied. I bring the speaker, the sequence, and a dry bag for your phone. First-timers: arrive ten minutes early and tell me — I'll set you up near me so you can follow easily.
Weather calls are made by 6:00a on the morning itself. Rain or lightning moves us to the studio; I'll text the group thread so nobody drives to the sand for nothing.

Start with the Foundations course. Four weeks, same small group, zero expectation that you can touch your toes. You'll learn the names of the poses, how to breathe without holding your breath in hard shapes, and how to use props without feeling silly about it.
Can't commit to four weeks? Book a private session instead — one hour and you'll know enough to walk into any beginner-friendly class in this city. Or just come to Monday Hatha and tell me it's your first time. I'll keep an eye on you. That's literally the job.
| Day | Class | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | Hatha — small group | 9:00a · 60 min |
| Tuesday | Vinyasa flow | 6:00p · 75 min |
| Wednesday | Hatha — small group | 9:00a · 60 min |
| Wednesday | Pranayama + meditation | 7:30p · 45 min |
| Thursday | Vinyasa flow | 6:00p · 75 min |
| Friday | Hatha — small group | 9:00a · 60 min |
| Saturday | Sunrise beach yoga | 7:00a · 60 min |
| Sunday | Yin + restorative | 5:30p · 75 min |
Private sessions are scheduled around the group timetable — mornings and midday usually have the most room. Booking opens two weeks out; the beach class caps at twenty mats.
The Foundations course, or a single private session, or Monday-morning Hatha if you want to just show up. All three assume zero experience. Tell me it's your first time and I'll adjust everything — that's normal here, not an inconvenience.
Water and comfortable clothes you can move in. Mats, blocks, straps, bolsters and blankets are all provided at the studio. For beach yoga, bring a big towel or a mat you don't mind getting sandy, plus sunscreen.
I make the call by 6:00a and text everyone booked. Light rain: we practice anyway (it's warm, it's fine). Lightning or heavy rain: we move to the studio for the same flow, indoors.
Call or text (555) 010-2030. Group classes: book up to two weeks ahead, cancel up to four hours before for full credit. Privates: twenty-four hours' notice, otherwise the session is charged — my time is the product.
Probably yes, but start with a private session so I can see how you move and we can plan around it. I'm an experienced instructor, not a clinician — anything undiagnosed or acute should see a doctor or physio first, and I'll ask what they said.
Yes — classes are taught in English with Spanish cueing whenever anyone in the room prefers it. Private sessions can be fully in Spanish. Miami, you know.
Call or text. If I’m teaching, I’ll reply between classes — usually within the hour.
