Viviane grew up practicing sports and dance in her native country, Brazil. She discovered Pilates and Yoga in a Barcelona gym group classes in 2000 and kept practicing on and off since then. When, while already living in the USA, a back injury had her slow down her work out practices, she decided Pilates was the safest option to stay active and healthy while strenghtening her body, improving her posture while permitting body alignment.
After recovering, she was thrilled to enroll in the instructors' certification program and after completing her Pilates training (to teach Mat and Apparatus), she started her Yoga certification journey - initially 200h and eventually 300h, making her a 500h Yoga Teacher.
She's currently Comprehensively certified by Peak Pilates, an ASFA (American Sports Fitness Association) Personal Trainer, a 500YTT Yoga Teacher, BarreAbove Teacher, and Kidding Around Yoga Teacher (kids yoga) among a few other certifications.
She lives in South Florida teaching Yoga, Pilates, Barre and personal training at Golf Communities in the area. Her clients background vary from golf semi-pros to dancers and general population; to young adults and elderly. Viviane has the knowledge and experience to teach any of her certification formats, and to teach classes with different backgrounds and experience levels.
Her clients appreciate her detailed cues, fun style, making sure everyone has fun and feels included during her classes.
