Manuela

Yoga Teacher and Breathwork & Mindfulness facilitator

Manuela discovered yoga in 2013 while working as a manager in a corporate setting and immediately experienced its transformative power.

Since then, she has worked towards bringing well-being to the workplace. She is a strongly dedicated teacher with a very compassionate approach.

With a deep passion for holistic well-being, she has an innate curiosity that drives her to constantly research, study, and explore new methods to enhance her practice and teaching.

She has specialized in Hatha, Vinyasa and Yin Yoga, and studied under renowned teachers such as Nico Luce and Max Strom. Her yoga teaching is also informed by functional anatomy, myofascial release, and biomechanics, supporting safe, intelligent movement and a deeper embodied understanding

Manuela’s teaching is also rooted in an ongoing, in-depth study of mindfulness and contemplative practice, including her MMTCP training with Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield. Her approach weaves together awareness, compassion, and lived experience, inviting students to cultivate presence both on and off the mat.

Through her studies, Manuela has cultivated a profound understanding of the power of mindfulness and breathwork, which she now shares with her students to help them achieve balance, relaxation, and deep healing.

Manuela has taught in Switzerland and Italy.

Manuela offers weekly classes & private classes to Lake Como Wellness clients, as well as personal and corporate workshops for those who want to take their practice to the next level.
