Tanya Arriaga is a Master's level graduate of Clinical Psychology with an interest in mindfulness-based methods of yoga and AcroYoga.  She completed over 400+ hours of yoga teacher training with Youga Yoga of Corpus Christi, Yogabatics of Austin, and Daniel Scott's Yoga of Trust team. Also she is a certified instructor of the 2017 LIFT School of Acrobatics 200 hour certification program. Yoga and AcroYoga are an important part of her life. Being that she is partially blind and almost complete deaf she has been able to excel at these practices since she has empowered herself to heighten her other senses. All of her life she has had to get around primarily by using cues and body language rather than listening and seeing. She has developed skills in alignment-based yoga, partner dynamics, and acrobatic yoga. Her great passion is to help people who have been through stressful experiences by strengthening their relationship and overall view of themselves so they can have a sense of inner peace, completeness, happiness and feel generally loved. 

A student of the yogic arts for 18 years, Mina is ready to embark on a mission to share the benefits of the philosophy of yoga with the most unlikely of students.  

Everyone has a yoga story to share, and a fear or an ache or pain they’d like gone.   By paying close attention to individual needs, concerns and limitations, Mina tailors classes to fit the student; be it physical, spiritual or overcoming a mental block.  

We’re all looking for something, and it may not be yoga, but Mina believes that yoga can help us find it by claiming our own bodies and the innate healing powers that we each possess.
