Carmina Rafferty

November 2, 2023 by Ryan

Wellness Manager 

Carmina is a seasoned guide in the realms of yoga and holistic well-being. With over two decades of experience, she has passionately shared her love for these disciplines, leaving a lasting impact on countless individuals seeking a path to personal transformation.

Hailing originally from the picturesque east coast of the United States, Carmina’s life journey has been a testament to her adventurous spirit and unquenchable thirst for knowledge. Her path has taken her to distant lands, including India, Mexico, Hawaii, and most recently, the serene shores of Troncones.

At the heart of Carmina’s vocation is a deep-seated commitment to helping students unlock their full potential through the practice of yoga, emphasizing the importance of breath and self-awareness. Her journey of self-discovery has led her to study under a diverse array of teachers and explore multiple modalities, shaping her into an expert in the integration of energetics and compassion in her teaching.

In Carmina’s yoga classes, you’ll find an inviting and playful atmosphere, where she encourages students to explore modifications and offers hands-on adjustments to ensure that each class is accessible to practitioners of all levels. Her extensive studies with renowned instructors, including Pattabhi Jois, Bhavani Maki, Nancy Gilgoff, Nicki Doane and Eddie Modestini, have equipped her with a wealth of wisdom that she skillfully imparts to her students.

Carmina’s meditation practice, guided by her teacher Babaji of the Sonoma Ashram in California, serves as a cornerstone for her approach to meditation and pranayama. Her asana style is a fusion of elements from the Ashtanga system, Iyengar and therapeutic methods, offering students a well-rounded and holistic yoga experience.

Carmina’s love for language and her dedication to learning led her to delve into the ancient wisdom of the Yoga Sutras, which she chants daily. She artfully incorporates the teachings of the Yoga Sutras into her classes, empowering students to apply these profound lessons beyond the yoga mat and into their everyday lives.

Beyond yoga, Carmina’s journey of learning has extended to the realms of nutrition and Ayurveda. She has worked closely with numerous students to craft personalized cleanse programs, fostering a deeper understanding of the profound connection between self and food. For Carmina, yoga is the embodiment of union, and she’s dedicated to guiding students in exploring all facets of their practice to attain a harmonious and unified state of being.

With Carmina as your Wellness Manager at Present Moment Retreat, you can look forward to a transformative journey toward personal well-being and self-discovery, led by an expert with a boundless love for yoga and holistic wellness.
