Naya a.k.a Nayita was born in New Jersey, raised in Dominican Republic and now resides South Florida. Naya's mother introduced her to the gift of yoga over 15 years ago. Reaching a plateau she journeyed to seek strength and flexibility. Naya started a daily asana practice Oct. 2012. Astonished by the physical, mental and spiritual changes she committed to make yoga her lifestyle.
Besides exposing her physical practice on the streets and social media her favorite way of inspiring is to teach yoga. She dotes on traditional lineage but adds her modern twist in teaching. With a mix of Sanskrit, Spanish and Yiddish she'll keep you on your toes. She also gives time for silence and time self exploration. Naya loves to break down the challenging asana's and make them accessible to every student. Expect her energy to keep you uplifted along with a safe Vinyasa flow. Being a Body Positive enthusiast she believes yoga is for every BODY, human, gender, age..... She's a fan of the outdoors, travel, wine and FOOD! On her free time you can catch her with her family and friends practicing some acro-yoga or dancing to merengue, salsa and bachata. Having her own rescue from Miami, Princess, Naya is a pit bull advocate and speaks for those who have no voice. Naya’s also an associate at the Tri-County Animal Rescue.
