Luna Castilho

Luna Castilho is a Registered Yoga Teacher, also certified in Breath work (Pranayama) and Sound Healing.

She completed her trainings at Pure Yoga and Prema Yoga Institute, giving her a background in Vinyasa with roots Ashtanga and Iyengar alignment, as well as Hatha yoga practice with a strong focus on pranayama (breath work) techniques and philosophy.

Luna grew up in a small beach town close to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, surrounded by nature, hiking mountains barefeet, going to the beach, surfing, exploring the jungles and playing all sorts of outdoor sports. For nearly 20 years in the Fashion industry working as a fashion model, she spent most of her life trying to constantly adhere to a certain “beauty standard” set forward by the fashion industry. Disconcerted with how she felt, she discovered her life’s purpose: to help others embrace their body and tap into their force within.

Practicing yoga for many years after being a fitness coach, she found in yoga an opportunity to unite the physical and the spiritual practices. She considers yoga a path to heal, connect and remember our inner strength.

When taking classes with her, you can expect powerful flows combined with mindful contemplations and grounding experiences, including somatic release techniques, connecting the body, mind, soul and spirit.
