Rebecca Oliveira

Attracted first to yoga by the physical exercise, she quickly noticed how her practice on the mat began to inform the rest of her life, welcoming both the balance and steadiness it brought in this hectic and transient city. Rebecca started teaching in 2012 and completed her advanced 500 hour certification at ISHTA yoga in 2013. She owes a deep gratitude to the ISHTA lineage and all the ISHTA teachers who have helped, and continue to help, her create her own Yoga journey. In her classes, Rebecca encourages her students to explore their own individual practice by cultivating an awareness of the body and breath so as to connect with the present moment. Since finishing her 500 hr tt Rebecca has completed the following speciality trainings: ISHTA Yoga 20 hr Prenatal Yoga immersion (2014) Yoga Tune Up Embodied Integrated Anatomy (2015) ISHTA Yoga 20 hr Restorative Yoga training (2016) Mindful Resilience Training with the Veterans' Yoga Project (2016) Pilates Mat Certification at Equinox (2016) ISHTA Yoga Masters training (2024) Rebecca relocated to Northern Virginia, in Fall 2022 and is available to teach both private and group classes for any level population, including Prenatal Yoga.
