Cali Gonzalez

Hello, I'm Cali, and I'm delighted to introduce myself as your Yoga Instructor.

Nearly a decade ago, I relocated from my homeland, Puerto Rico, to Los Angeles and discovered the transformative power of yoga. This practice revealed the ongoing mental chatter within me and showed me the way to embrace the present moment.

I entirely fell in love with yoga. Over the span of three years, I graduated from two 200-hour teacher trainings. The first training was a personal quest for self-transformation, completed at SoulPlay Yoga. The second time around was at Light on Lotus, and it prepared me with the necessary skills to share this transformational practice with others.

Yoga became the catalyst for significant life changes. It empowered me to transition away from a corporate career of twelve years that no longer resonated with my authentic self. By helping me remain present while the world around me felt chaotic, yoga brought me back to myself.

My aim as your instructor is to guide you through a fun, holistic experience that fosters growth for our physical, mental, and spiritual bodies. A glimpse into my classes: inspiring meditations/ dharma talks, all-level friendly sequences, funky playlists, and a bit of Spanish.

In my true multifaceted nature, my life journey has been filled with a diverse range of experiences. My background is in Chemical Engineering, Sustainability and project management, and I'm currently pursuing an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach Certification.

Looking forward to seeing you on the mat!

Con amor, 
Cali G
