AMBRA VALLO

About

Ambra is a former Principal ballerina with the Birmingham Royal

Ballet. Throughout her career she enjoyed the chance to perform on

stages all around the world. She turned to yoga on a path to recovery from

injuries that naturally result from the strenuous training regime, and as well

as becoming a hobby she also credits it with helping to enhance and

prolong her career. Slowly over the years she fell in love with the more

subtle, spiritual parts of the practice. 

 

Retiring from dance allowed her the time to focus on her passion and to

undertake further training in Ashtanga Vinyasa (200hrs, 500hrs & 50hrs),

Dharma Yoga (500hrs & 800hrs), Rocket Yoga (500hrs), Forrest Yoga

(200hrs and Advance TT), Tripsichore (200hrs), and Gokul Vinyasa Yoga

(300hrs). Ambra’s teaching is fun and spontaneous following the lineage of

Larry Shultz, Ana Forrest, and Sri Dharma Mittra. Since she retired from

professional ballet she has been teaching regularly in teacher training

courses, has worked with performers and athletes helping to rethink their

traditional training regimes and introduce yoga to drive better performance

and increase their enjoyment of sport and performance. Her aim is to

guide others so as they may also experience the many amazing benefits of

yoga to the body, mind and soul.
