what is integral yoga?

While most classical yoga systems aim for union with the divine through an ascetic path, seeking liberation from material existence, Integral Yoga takes a different approach: it invites us to transform it.

Conceived by Sri Aurobindo around 1910, following his political activism in India’s struggle for independence from British colonial rule, Integral Yoga holds that before we “transcend” the physical world, we must divinize it: create here on Earth the heaven our hearts so often long for.

How? Drawing on his profound spiritual experiences and fascinating theory of consciousness, Sri Aurobindo believed that once a critical mass of truly awakened human beings emerges, the natural step in our development as a species will be to bring this vision of a kinder, more harmonious world into tangible existence.

As a facilitator of Integral Yoga, my intention is to share with you the knowledge, theory, and tools for you to deepen your own practice—so that, together, we may keep aligning with our inner callings and take part in this transition.

critical mass of human beings capable of experiencing here, on Earth, Supraconsciousness, the ability to live the divine condition within a human body."

your facilitator.

Hi, I’m Carlota. After experiencing firsthand the transformative power of yoga—especially during a more depressive period in my life—in 2021 I felt called to go deeper. A dear friend recommended a yoga teacher training in Madeira, Portugal, and I enrolled, stepping into the study of Integral Yoga with greater dedication.

In a time when many yoga spaces can overlook the philosophy and depth of its roots, I feel grateful to have found a school whose teachings are both philosophically rich and grounded in integrity, and to have learned from an extraordinary teacher and human being, Carmen Mitroi.

As a certified Yoga Alliance teacher—though I prefer to see myself as a lifelong student and facilitator of yoga—I’ve been sharing this practice for the past four years. It’s an honor to continue bringing it into the world.

what people are saying.

I heartily recommend Carlota as a yoga teacher. She understands the material and philosophy at a deep level, she is extremely well prepared and detailed in her presentation of it, and she is very good at demonstrating it at the level of the student. She doesn't push you too hard but at the same time she finds your edge and encourages you to go beyond it. And the classes are fun! You'll be glad you tried it, I always feel much better after practising yoga with her.
