Gaby Maldonado

Growing up immersed in a temperate rainforest at the base of Mt. Hood in Oregon, Gaby found herself surrounded by yoga at a young age. Introduced to it by her mom who held space for yoga gatherings in their living room for friends to take shelter during the rains, Gaby was joining in at the age of 3 and often incorporated poses and shapes from her Sesame Street alphabet book. As time went on, her studies of yoga deepened and her practice expanded past asanas and pranayama. Completing her RYT 200 in 2013, a 100hr Yin training in 2023, and currently enrolled in a RYT 300 program, Gaby intends to continue studying yoga formally and informally for the rest of her journey through this life. The grounding elements of the natural world are a primary source of inspiration in this worldly teacher's classes as well as for her life off the mat. Having taught studio classes in the U.S., Mexico, and Nicaragua, Gaby remains open to the next adventure where the ocean waves meet the mat so she can combine her love of surfing with the love of sharing yoga. Whether it be Yin, Vinyasa, Hatha, or a Slow Flow, Gaby's classes are often a combination of alignment, philosophy and reverence for the Vedic roots of yoga. Her smile and radiant positivity will keep you encouraged to come back to your mat, your breath and yourself, again and again.
