Meet Your Instructor

Carla, the heart and soul behind Mamacita Yoga, brings a wealth of experience and passion to her role as an instructor and certified doula. Carla’s journey into the world of yoga and prenatal support began with her own transformative experience. Originally a Pastry Chef in the demanding food industry, Carla found herself struggling with back pain and mental stress from long hours in the kitchen. In 2015, she discovered yoga, which became a turning point in her life.

Practicing yoga not only strengthened Carla physically but also brought her immense mental clarity and a sense of community. Inspired by the positive changes she experienced, Carla decided to become a yoga instructor, dedicating herself to helping others find the same relief and joy. After teaching at a large yoga studio for five years, she felt a calling to create a more specialized and nurturing environment for mothers-to-be, leading to the founding of Mamacita Yoga in 2019.

With over eight years of teaching experience, Carla combines her extensive knowledge of yoga with her certification as a doula to offer a holistic approach to prenatal care. Her classes are designed to support women through every stage of pregnancy, incorporating safe yoga stretches, breathing techniques, and valuable practices for labor and postpartum recovery.

Carla’s personal journey and dedication to supporting mothers-to-be are at the core of Mamacita Yoga. She is committed to creating a space where women can connect, feel empowered, and embrace the incredible journey of motherhood with confidence and support.
