About Henrica

200 yoga teacher training completed at the Dallas Yoga Center, Dallas, Texas, June 2019. Experienced teacher with over 1,000 hours of teaching end December 2024.

Registered with the Yoga Alliance with an updated designation to YACEP and E-RYT200 in December 2024 as a 200YTT and continuing education provider. 

Continue to be an avid student of yoga teachings to better serve my community of students. 

Previous experience as trainer in the business world and as ESL teacher help me guide my students and focus on their needs in yoga practice.

First Aid Certified in Portugal (Apr 2024). 

One of my guiding principles as a yoga teacher to beginners is: “It is not how well one does a pose but rather how does a pose feel and what is it doing for someone who is new to yoga."  The goal is for students to gain self-confidence in yoga practice, to explore and understand individual abilities and limitations, so as to develop awareness of movement and be able to enjoy the benefits of yoga practice both on and off the mat in every day activities, 

I offer a blend of traditional Hatha yoga, Vinyasa and Movement Awareness. Instruction is focused on giving students the opportunity to practice yoga at their own pace and ability by offering modifications and creating awareness of functional movement.  Restorative yoga is an option offered for those that need a more relaxing and focused practice.

I offer classes in English, Portuguese and Dutch, and use my knowledge of other languages as a yoga teacher to help guide students where necessary if none of these is their first language.
