Owner / Head of Teacher Trainings
David found yoga like most of us; he gave his trust to someone who told him it would be good for him to try it out. The first few experiences with yoga gave David an extremely profound sense of trust. Trust in himself. Yoga has become a deep journey for David, one that pulls at the roots of self-realization. What, When, How, Why, Where…. Everything begins with a question and not everything ends with an answer. David infuses his teachings with a sense of happiness and acceptance of the present moment. Yoga will always bring stillness to the body and mind, which offers that space of happiness and presence.
In 2011, Lua Nox Kyle Sallaberry, was born and followed by Dalai David Kyle Sallaberry in 2012. All of David's hard work has come to fruition by blessing him with a lovely family and now he understands what is meant by family life being the "7th Series!" Now it is Lua and Dalai that keeps David present as he keeps his sail lifted to the changing winds of life!

Senior Teacher
Chana Cohen moved to Puerto Rico in 1985 from Israel after honorably serving as an officer in the Israel Defense Force for almost four years. It was there where she verily focused her passion of the martial arts and healthy living. She has spent her time in Puerto Rico raising three children and growing a successful vacation rental business. It was actually Talia, Chana’s daughter, that introduced her to Yoga and has been in love with it ever since. At the time, Chana had been in and out of the hospital regularly in pain and discomfort. She remembers that time as her lowest point. Through the physical practice of yoga, pain slowly started disappearing. Sleep came easier.
Continuing on her journey, she was overcome with a sense of peace; she started communicating with others and herself better. It was truly a physical and mental restoration. Ten years later, Chana looks back on her time as a beginner with fond memories.
In 2007, under the direction of David Kyle, founder and co-owner of Ashtanga Yoga Puerto Rico, she became certified as a yoga instructor. The spiritual life has now become commonplace in her daily routine. Yoga has taught her that the physical, emotional, and spiritual are all connected. Practice and discipline should be applied to any and every aspect of life. See Chana's Website at yogawithchana.com
