Sonia started practicing yoga at age 14 and it’s been part of her life ever since. She continued her practice on both the East and West coast, practicing regularly at various studios and in different styles in both NYC and Los Angeles.  In her 20s she returned to Miami and completed her Teacher Training Certification at Miami Yogashala under Ashley Cummings, and began teaching a Vinyasa Flow class in Miami Beach soon thereafter.

Fast forward to 2013 when she was pregnant with her first child and began practicing Prenatal Yoga at Red Pearl.  She practiced there until the night before she gave birth to her baby girl!  Her “baby” is now 10 years old

Sonia continues to explore her practice at Red Pearl and is excited to share her love and knowledge of yoga with not only her daughter, but with other children her age.
