Erica Garcia, E-RYT, YACEP, is a LatinX yoga teacher whose breadth of knowledge and skill also shapes her and separates her as a teachers’ teacher and sought after yoga mentor. Called the “Nuyorican Sage,” this bilingual New York native’s personal practice spans more than three decades and several lineages, and in that time she has crafted a unique signature style all her own, Nueva Alma™.

Nueva Alma™ is an innate and intuitive flow that demystifies the esoteric so students can stoke their curiosity and invoke self-inquiry, all while igniting the spirit and activating the physical body. With electrifying passion, a dose of grit and realness, and her fun, sarcastic humor, Erica creates an environment of safety and inclusivity, allowing all students to learn and accept that they, too, can do this thing called yoga.
