Hi, I’m Rocío 👋
I have been devoted to the world of yoga for many years, always in my own way: I am self-taught. I learnt by trying, getting it wrong and trying again, laughing at my own poses and starting over.
Over time, yoga became my way of stopping, listening to my body and noticing what is really going on. And that’s when I realised something: for certain poses, yoga props were a huge help!
The problem is that they are not easy to find. Yoga, at least in Spain, is not that widespread, and these props are not so common. That’s how Yoga Balance CBR was born: a small shop with a few well-chosen things, starting with a cork yoga block that helps me practise more calmly and with less tension, and to do more demanding poses.
I also care about where things come from, so I choose natural materials like cork, which is harvested from the bark of the cork oak without harming the tree. At Yoga Balance CBR we care about the environment, so we respect it while making useful props for yoga, Pilates and fitness available to as many people as possible.
But this isn’t just about selling. I also share content online with everything I have learnt and tips to get more out of your practice. I do it with practical videos, where you can clearly see the poses, tips and routines, and on my blog, with more in-depth articles.
I want to build a community: a corner to share tips, ideas and motivation so you can practise at your own pace, even if you do it at home, alone and in your pyjamas (especially if it’s in your pyjamas!).
I share what works for me, with lots of love. One important thing: always listen to your body and, if you have an injury or any doubts, see a professional. I am not a yoga teacher.
Thank you for being here 💚
