MEET THE TEAM
Caterina Allegra

With a degree in Biology, Ecology and Conservation, Caterina has lived, worked (in environmental research) and traveled abroad for many years until she settled in Sicily (where she grew up) to teach yoga. She has more than 500hrs of Yoga Alliance certified training and teaches Yin Yoga, Meditation, Hatha Yoga, Vinyasa Flow, Yoga Therapy, Prenatal Yoga and Trapeze Yoga® with a functional approach and speaks 6 languages. She considers yoga as grassroot environmental acrivism for women empowerment and is passionate about life and all its expressions.
Ylenia D'Agostino
Yoga Teacher
Ylenia is a Hatha yoga teacher who wants to bring more body awareness into her classes.
Spending almost every day among horses, she has discovered great life lessons that she wishes to pass on. When she is not at the stables she runs with her partner, you can find her lost in nature, with her dogs, taking long walks. She loves creating videos, photographing elements of nature, or pursuing any other art form dictated by the moment.
She has travelled a lot but decided, in 2018, to settle in Sicily, following her roots. With a degree in Japanese language and culture, she wants to bring some concepts from the land of the rising sun into her practice.
Emilia Contarino
Our Talented Cook
Her mission is to make you discover local food in harmony with the seasons, with knowledge of ayurveda and Chinese medicine principles. She infuses her dishes with the love, zest and joy that are her trademarks. She finds harmony in yoga, singing and dancing and loves spending time in Nature, admiring the beauty and perfection of the natural cycles.
Antonella Bonfiglio
Yoga Teacher RYT 500
My yoga journey began in 2001 in the United State, while I was training for a marathon ( I ran 20 marathons injury-free). Since then, I continued to deepen my practice and understanding of this beautiful discipline. In 2007, I enrolled in my first teacher trading at Moksha Yoga Center, Chicago, which I completed a year later. In 2010, I started studying with Ana Forrest and I completed the 200 hr Foundational Teacher Training in Cranston, Rhode Island. In 2018, I completed the Forrest Yoga Advanced teacher training with Ana Forrest and a Jose Calarco. My classes are appropriate for all levels. My intent is to support and guide students in their journey to awareness and clarity., stability and harmony, on a physical and mental level. As my teacher says, in my classes you will always find the right balance between “a win and a challenge”.
Naomi Winnie
Dharma Yoga Teacher
Naomi is originally from Belgium and graduated in 2013 in Tourism Management. After a year of Erasmus in Barcelona, where she learned Spanish, she hasn't stopped travelling, deepening her knowledge of other cultures by living in various countries including Greece, Tunisia, the Dominican Republic and Mexico. In 2020 she took her first teacher training course in Hatha-Raja Yoga with Adriana Cabrera and Gerson, disciples of Sri Dharma Mittra, later deepening the study of Yoga philosophy. The yoga practice for her goes beyond physical postures and she considers yoga as a tool to live life more happily, with love and compassion, necessary to be able to serve through Karma Yoga. As Sri Dharma Mittra says: "Everything is perfect, everything is as it should be."
Sarah Scholl
Aerial Yoga Teacher
Sarah was born and raised in the United States but has lived in Sicily since 2013. She has been a dancer and yogi her entire life and discovered a love for the aerial arts about 14 years ago as a student at University in Colorado. She started practicing Aerial Yoga in conjunction with Pole Dancing and when she moved to Italy she spent a few years being part of a competitive pole dance team. After the birth of her daughter in 2021, she decided to bring her attention back to the practice of Aerial Yoga. In her lessons, Sarah combines her skills with her joyful character to create dynamic, light and fun lessons that will make you feel deeply energized.
