About Barbara Valencia
Aiming to teach Budokon yoga or a Vinyasa Flow class in a friendly, nurturing environment to students that are open to creative ways of moving and connecting with their physical body within a yoga and movement arts construct. My teaching style is non-dogmatic, intuitive and adaptable to the skill and knowledge of each of my students. I enjoy sharing what I know and offering creative alternatives that help students build on each pose while maintaining the integrity of the yoga practice.

Training Philosophy
Finding that balance between pushing to explore your limits and being kind and intelligent about your movements. You can't grow unless you get out of your comfort zone, but you also want to be injury free and consistent in your practice.

Typical Training Session
I have a well-rounded yoga background, training in movement arts and locomotion, and 9 years of teaching experience. I am passionate about connecting as an instructor and I like to cater to the needs and preferences of my students. They have described my classes as: “playfully intuitive”, “joyous and lighthearted”, “very hands on”, “simple and graceful flow”, “physically challenging while giving great instructions to details on alignment”. My classes start with a grounded, meditative, centering beginning, then transition to a slow, intelligent warm-up, channeling encouragement toward apex poses, including twists, balances, inversions and spinal undulations, followed by slow delicious stretches, ending with a deep savana.
