Lila’s connection to yoga began with a powerful spiritual awakening in 2012, setting her on a deeply personal path of exploration and growth. Drawn to the source, she spent time in the ashrams of Nepal, where she immersed herself in intensive meditation study. That formative chapter continues to inform her belief that real wellness comes from balance between mind, body, and soul.
In 2014, she followed another clear calling and lived off-grid for 2.5 years in the Mayan Riviera. There, she devoted her energy to helping build an eco-village that became a gathering place for yoga festivals, workshops, and events. Living sustainably and co-creating community gave her a lasting perspective on the role of yoga in today’s world.
After many years of dedicated practice, she stepped onto the teacher path in 2021, completing her foundational yoga training with Annubuddha Lee. In 2025, she traveled to Bali for a two-month immersion in Ashtanga-Vinyasa with Ram Negi, deepening her ability to create dynamic, breath-led sequences. Her personal practice is joyfully rooted in inversions and further enriched by cross-training in contortion, acrobatics, and strength training, bringing her teaching a playful yet grounded focus on alignment, resilience, and expression.
