Paulo Hudson

Paulo Hudson is a passionate and dedicated yoga practitioner and teacher who has delved into various styles and approaches. Initially drawn to the transformative practice of Kripalu yoga, which emphasizes self-acceptance and mindfulness, Paulo's curiosity led him to explore Katonah Yoga. This unique style, developed by Nevine Michaan, combines Taoism, breathwork, and sacred geometry to create a profound connection to universal forces and enhance alignment and stability. As Paulo continues to integrate these different forms of yoga into his practice and teachings, he remains committed to sharing his knowledge and experiences, assisting others in their journey towards physical and spiritual well-being through yoga.
