- BKS Iyengar
Welcome to Arlinda's Asanas! I’m Arlinda, and my journey with yoga began as a teenager when my therapist recommended it as a holistic alternative to medication. It was my nephew/brother who gifted me my first yoga DVD, sparking a lifelong passion for the practice.
Over the years, I’ve returned to the mat during both calm and chaotic moments, but in 2014, my practice deepened into a spiritual journey. I took a significant step in 2020 by enrolling in Yoga Teacher Training, though the pandemic led me to prioritize financial stability to support my family.
In 2023, I faced profound loss, losing a dear friend and my nephew/brother unexpectedly. During this challenging time, I sought healing in my yoga practice, finding strength and solace on the mat as I navigated grief.
Through Arlinda's Asanas, I hope to share this healing journey with others, guiding you to find your own path on and off the mat.

What types of yoga do you offer?
Vinyasa Yoga – A dynamic, flowing practice that links breath to movement, building strength, balance, and mindfulness.
Yinyasa Yoga – A blend of yin and vinyasa: starting with gentle yin-style holds to release tension, then moving into an energizing flow.
Kids Yoga – Fun, creative movement that helps children build confidence, focus, and emotional awareness.
Prenatal Yoga – Gentle, supportive practices designed for pregnancy, helping relieve discomfort and prepare the body for labor. (Ask about postpartum doula services)
What are the benefits of practicing yoga?
Yoga supports both the body and mind. Physically, it can improve flexibility, strength, and posture while relieving tension. Mentally and emotionally, it reduces stress, increases focus, and creates space for calm. Many students also find yoga helps them sleep better, breathe easier, and feel more grounded in daily life.
What should I expect in class?
Expect a welcoming environment where all levels are celebrated. Mats and props are often available (check the class description), but you’re welcome to bring your own. Wear comfortable clothing you can move in. Every class includes breathwork, guided movement, and time for rest—so you’ll leave feeling balanced and refreshed.
What is a postpartum doula and what services do you provide?
A postpartum doula supports families during the transition after birth. My services include:

Emotional support and resources for parents
Gentle yoga and breathwork for postpartum healing
