Balancing Physical Fitness and Spiritual Awareness: A Yogic Approach
In this episode, Harmony and Russell chat with Arbely Rubalcava, a yoga teacher with a rich background in rhythmic gymnastics and over a decade of Ashtanga Yoga practice. Arbely shares her journey from competing in rhythmic gymnastics at a young age to discovering Modo Yoga in Montréal, which became a transformative practice for her. At 19, she traveled to Kerala, India, to complete a 500-hour Modo Level 1 teacher training, and later transitioned to Ashtanga Yoga, studying under Sharath Jois in Mysore. Arbely talks about the challenges of teaching yoga internationally, leading teacher trainings across various countries, and the emotional and physical toll of constant travel. Her story highlights the discipline required in both gymnastics and yoga, the importance of breath and meditation, and the evolution of her teaching practice over the years.
Key Discussion Points:
- Arbely’s early years in rhythmic gymnastics and the pressures of competitive sports.
About the Guest: Arbely Rubalcava is a dedicated yoga teacher with over 1000 hours of yoga education and more than a decade of experience in practicing Ashtanga Yoga. Born in Mexico and raised in Montréal, Arbely’s journey began with rhythmic gymnastics, leading her to discover the healing power of yoga. After completing a 500-hour Modo Level 1 teacher training in Kerala, India, at the age of 19, Arbely has since traveled the world teaching yoga, leading teacher trainings, and continuing her own education. Her approach to teaching is compassionate yet firm, and she believes yoga can be made accessible to anyone, regardless of their background or experience level.
