ABOUT ME

I’m Vero Larao—a yoga teacher, movement enthusiast, artist, and mindfulness guide. 

My journey through mindful movement began in 1998 when I took my first aikido class, where my master introduced me to meditation. It was also there that I learned the value of discipline and consistency. From there, I developed my own yoga practice, which I started at the age of 16 in my home country, Brazil. 

While building a successful career as a graphic designer and photographer, I maintained a dedicated personal yoga practice, using it as a tool for growth and understanding.

A series of profound life changes over the past five years awakened in me a deep calling to share these transformative practices with others. Drawing from my diverse background, I create nurturing spaces where people can explore movement, healing, and personal growth. 

My approach integrates physical wellness with mental clarity, recognizing that true well-being emerges from harmony between body and mind.

Over the past decade, I have dedicated myself to deepening my knowledge and skills through extensive training, including:

– 200-Hour Zen Yoga Teacher Training

– 100-Hour Kids Yoga Teacher Training

– 100-Hour Mindfulness Teacher Training

– Acroyoga Solar Immersion and Lunar Somatics Methods

– Yoga Body Science of Stretching

Additionally, I’ve pursued specialized certifications and courses, including:

– Mindfulness & Well-being Specialization, Rice University

– Introduction to Yoga and Physiology Specialization, NYU Tandon School of Engineering

– Mindfulness Teacher Training – Complementary Medical Association, Shamash Aldina Teach Mindfulness Program
