Tiffany is a lifelong dancer who was introduced to the Ashtanga style of yoga by a university dance professor. Decades later, she is still practicing, and a move to London gave her the opportunity to turn her interest into a career. She is certified as a children’s yoga teacher from Karma Kids Yoga in New York and YogaBugs in the UK. After several months teaching kids in nursery and primary schools, she embarked on the life-changing journey of studying with Jamie Clarke, Dulce Aguilar and The Yoga People where she received her 200 hour teacher training certification in Ashtanga Vinyasa and Rocket Yoga. She has since added Mandala Vinyasa and Yin Yoga teachings to her repertoire. Her classes are athletic and energetic while embracing the transformative nature of the yogic breath meditation.

Davide moved in London in 2012. The chaotic lifestyle of the city immediately had a huge impact on his life: for many reasons he stopped practising break-dance, discipline that motivated him for the past decade. The feeling of frustration derived from this decision found relief just after he got to try his first yoga class. Since then, he genuinely dedicated himself to the practice, experimenting and testing every style he came across.

His practice is based on the Progressive Ashtanga-Vinyasa aka Rocket System, as he appreciates the value of a no dogmatic approach to the yoga practice. He understands the psychology of newbies and always tries to remind that it is not about mastering a pose, but the journey itself.

Davide is inspired by the awesome David Swenson and the incredibly humble David Kyle. Among his other passions, Davide spaces from a nerdy love for the Japanese universe to traveling, good coffee, food, cycling and being upside down.
