[Book Sculpt](https://espacolevealma.com.br/book/) How it works ## Before you roll out your mat ### Flexibility You pick the days and times that suit your week, and passes and class packs work for any class. ### Small classes Up to ten people a class, so everyone gets close attention. ### Respect Every class starts by asking who'd like hands-on adjustments. You answer with a small sign, eyes closed. ### For everyone Beginner, intermediate or advanced, every posture has a version that fits where you are. Made for a week in Itacaré ## Surf, rain, or a short stay Yoga & Surf Flat day? Sculpt keeps you strong. Pumping? Vinyasa keeps you loose. Mobility, breath and balance for the paddle, the pop-up and the next set. Surf school or camp? We'll set up a class for your crew. Rain Rain or shine, class is on. The deck's covered, and the rain on the trees is the soundtrack. Leve Alma Store Class comes with a perk: 10% off your first purchase at the Leve Alma Store. Rua Pedro Longo, 157 B, Pituba.

She teaches strength and flow in the same week because that is how she practises. She doesn't teach from a pedestal. She still takes class herself, with her own teacher, most weeks. What she hands you on the mat, she is still practising. [More about Mayra](https://espacolevealma.com.br/about/#mayra) Students ## In their own words > One of the best yoga classes I've taken! Living in Berlin, I'm spoiled with great yoga teachers, so taking a class on holiday is usually a gamble. This was the opposite. > K Stefanie, on Google > The welcome was perfect: she was always smiling, took the time to chat with everyone, and remembered everyone's names (a real feat given the high turnover in Itacaré). The classes are very well structured. > Ophelie Tallet > The best yoga class I've had so far! There was so much one-on-one attention, which made me feel comfortable and helped me improve my practice. > Noor Holdrinet > We easily organised a private session through WhatsApp on a Saturday morning. She adapted her lesson to our pace perfectly. Highly recommend! > Helena De Meersman > I don't speak Portuguese but Mayra the amazing teacher speaks perfectly English as well and does the class in both languages if needed. I can't wait to come back and get my class pass. > Tania Radermacher > The vinyasa is incredible after a surf session, and don't sleep on the Yoga Sculpt. I went four times while I was here. > William Foster > It was a fantastic class, definitely one of the best yoga classes we have tried. > Lærke Winther > By far my favorite yoga class! Mayra is simply amazing, explains things very well, and adapts to every level. > Allison Widmann (translated) > I felt welcome from the very first moment, at ease with my limits and at the same time encouraged to challenge myself. > Carla Cargnelutti (translated) > The welcome was perfect: she was always smiling, took the time to chat with everyone, and remembered everyone's names (a real feat given the high turnover in Itacaré).
