Mercedes Jauregui
Born and raised in Sinaloa, México, Mercedes Jauregui brings a profound passion for movement and the boundless potential of the human body to her life in Los Angeles. Having called the United States home for just three years, Mercedes initially trained in contemporary dance at the University of Sonora, México, School of Performing Arts, before discovering the transformative power of yoga. This realization sparked her journey to become a yoga instructor, emphasizing adapting the practice to each student.
With almost a decade of experience working with children, Mercedes believes in the healing capacity of movement for the body, mind, and soul. Drawing from her background, she infuses her classes with lessons learned from working with children, creating a nurturing space for self-discovery, curiosity, play, and joy. Her ultimate goal is to establish an environment where everyone feels valued and welcomed.
