Pedro Alonso
Instructor
Pedro blends the high-energy worlds of sports and business with the peace found in yoga. With a background as an aspiring pro tennis player, and later working in the hedge fund industry in New York and London, he understands the demands and stresses of modern life. Initially drawn to yoga during his tennis days, Pedro’s passion deepened in London, especially after discovering Rocket yoga. He found a combination of intense “Yang” yoga practices + more restorative “Yin” practices were the key to cultivate deep introspection and find a sustainable connection with oneself in this fast-paced world
He believes yoga has the unique potential to heal so many of today’s illnesses, both at an individual and society level, by cultivating connection with our minds, emotions, and souls as well as with others. This belief led him to start teaching in 2020 and fully diving into it in 2022 by quitting his job to train and teach in Bali and India. But London, he realized, was where he could make a real impact, moving back in 2023. Pedro’s dual life (as a yoga teacher but keeping a foot in high finance to stay in touch with the “real” world) provides a unique perspective, allowing him to meet his students right where they are. Helping them find inner peace amidst the chaos.
Pedro holds trainings in Rocket, Ashtanga, Yin, and Vinyasa as well as certificates in FRC and deep experience in sports, hand balancing, and strength training. Join him on the mat and discover an inspiring practice meant to challenge your body and mind, always with the main goal in mind to cultivate connection and introspection at a deep level
