My name is Yely Rivas-Staley, I am a Venezuelan born American citizen, who speaks fluently in English and Spanish and enjoy learning and studying. Before I became a Yoga Teacher, I was a Venezuelan Attorney with a master’s degree at Law from the University of Illinois. I lived in Chicago, Illinois for several years, and then moved to Silicon Valley California, where I was a yoga studio owner. With more than a decade of experience in yoga and meditation, I am now a certified yoga teacher, registered with Yoga Alliance with E-RYT 500 and YACEP certifications in Vinyasa Yoga, Functional Yin Yoga, Meditation and Yoga Anatomy. Currently I collaborate with Yoga Medicine, Yoga International, and OmPractice by writing articles and teaching various online yoga classes in English and Spanish. I have been practicing Yoga since 2004 and Meditation since 2008 and have trained with some of the most world-renowned yoga and meditation teachers including Tiffany Cruikshank, Jason Crandell, Roger Gabriel, and Rashmi Bismark. I am currently enrolled to receive my Mindfulness Meditation certification with Sean Fargo. I am constantly refining my practice, studies and knowledge of yoga, meditation, and mindfulness with many other renown teachers so I can continue offering my best self to my students.
