Mysore Shalita is yoga studio in Miami Beach focusing on Ashtanga Yoga Mysore Style, led by Emilia Arenas
All are welcome.
At Mysore Shalita, we follow the Ashtanga Yoga method without holding tightly any one particular image of how it should look.
We connect to the spirit of this transformational system through direct experience and playful exploration.
From that connection we believe there is endless potential for the practice to take unique expression from student to student. With that intention, Emilia meets you on the mat each day with love and curiosity.
Mysore Shalita is a sanctuary with no idols or dogmas.
It was born from a vision to create a safe and healing place for wandering souls to come exactly as they are and provide them the guidance and support to discover their yoga practice. Not just any yoga practice, one that works for the student, becomes a lifestyle and seeps into every other aspect of life.
A yoga practice that becomes a daily ritual and sheds light on a lifelong path of looking deeply within yourself.
There’s Space for you too.
We are a growing and thriving community that shows up for each other. Fellow practitioners reflecting our journeys and holding space for everything that comes up along the way.
In-person and remote options
All of our mysore classes and workshops are hybrid. You can join from our shalita in Miami Beach or through zoom. Check the ‘classes’ and ‘workshops’ tabs for more details
“Emilia is a teacher that has changed my practice and my life for the better and forever. With love, compassion and kindness she has created a space for practitioners to feel safe and seen, guiding us through all the challenges our practice, and life, has in store for us. She can just see you and know that something is up, and she lets you navigate that while still challenging you on the mat to become a better version of yourself. She teaches you to have that same love compassion and kindness for yourself. And the cherry on top: she has an EXTENSIVE understanding and experience of anatomy and ashtanga and can help you breakdown and understand poses and movements that would otherwise feel impossible. She is truly an amazing teacher who walks the talk and leads by example. Its an honor to be able to call her my teacher.”
— Tatiana Uprimny, Mysore Shalita Member
“Emilia’s passion for her work radiates to her students. She creates a fun, safe and loving environment. It does not matter if you are a beginner or an experienced yogi, she listens and provides constructive feedback. While carefully observing her students eventually she finds a way to help us achieve a pose in her well know approach “I have an idea.” Her adjustments are amazing!!! Having the opportunity to expand my knowledge and practice with her has changed me mentally physically and spiritually. Our community is fortunate to have such an amazing teacher who cares about every single student and shares with us her deep love to Ashtanga.”
