Carmelita Ugarte

Description

Carmelita Ugarte began her yoga journey at twenty-two, with a desire to manage and reduce college stress. Her introduction to yoga nidra opened her eyes to the possibility of committing to meditation and applying it to her daily lifestyle. As she began a career in education, she saw the benefits yoga practices had on her 4-5 year old students. After two wonderful years of teaching, she became consumed with the needs of her students and lost sight of the importance of self-care. Burnout mixed with the urgency to repair muscle damage due to the aftermath of two car accidents, ignited the fire Carmelita had been passively dimming. To her surprise, she discovered a fitness challenge on Facebook and did not hesitate to sign-up. Feeling healthy and hopeful, she jumped at the opportunity to become a student at a yoga school designed for educators. Upon graduation, Carmelita became at peace with her dharma to continue to heal her body and gain the knowledge to help heal others so that she can inspire others to do the same.

Credentials

I gained a deep knowledge in yoga, mindfulness and social-emotional learning during the course of my training. In addition, I lead various 30 minute to 60 minute asana practices. Throughout the duration of my training, I practiced and facilitated mediation techniques to relieve day to day stress during one on one meditation sessions. In group sessions, I focused on the personal well being of others in their lives, classrooms, and communities (in an empowering manner) with the aid of nature sounds and cultural tones/beats. My training has empowered me to share my skill-set with others to use wellness as a vehicle to heal and promote well-being. 

At the end of my training, I obtained a certification as a B4C Wellness Champion, and a Yoga Alliance Certified Yoga Teacher (CYT-200) Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200) Certification.
