Using music as a backdrop, each of Roberto's classes incorporate opening movements, variations on Surya Namaskars to open the body, vinyasa krama (stages) to build up to a peak pose, and restorative poses to release tension and rejuvenate. He believes in the power of yoga as a practice to heal and strengthen, to heighten consciousness, to find balance by studying opposites, and to transcend boundaries thus liberating oneself. He is inspired by his current teacher, Shiva Rea with whom he has been studying for four years.
