About me

  

 

My name is Lucia Vimercati. I practice Yoga since I was 10 year old and after working many years in sales and marketing for International Organizations,  I decided to bring that phase of my life to an end and devote myself completely to Yoga.

Sharing with others what I learned and experimented on myself gives me great joy and allows me to learn more and more every day. I am available for group and private Yoga classes, in particular I teach Hatha Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Yoga Nidra and Hormone Yoga Therapy.

 

In addition to Italian and English, I am fluent in German and French and I am happy to travel Worldwide.

 

 

MY YOGA
I discovered yoga when I was a child and since 2004 I have been practising regularly at Centro Yoga Lila in Biassono (Italy) where in 2010 I completed my Yoga Teacher's Training and where, since the same year, I have been teaching my "Yoga in the kitchen" classes (a course in Ayurvedic, Macrobiotic and Vegan cuisine). From 2012 till 2020 I have been teaching Hatha Yoga, Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra in Stuttgart (Germany) and Brussels (Belgium) in various studios and organisations, including the office of the European Union. I also offered regular Hormone Yoga workshops in various studios internationally. I am now back in Italy and due to Covid restrictions I continue to give my classes online.


My yoga style is a synthesis of my teacher's training inspired to the classic Sivananda tradition and my recent trainings in restorative yoga and hormone yoga and is influenced by my personal practice in various styles and with different Teachers. I strongly support continuous education by participating regularly in workshops and trainings and through encounters with Masters and lots of meditation.

Mantra chanting has always been part of my practice and since many years I have been studying  Veda chanting with Shantalah Sriramaiah of Veda Studies, a direct student of the Challakere Brothers of Bangalore. I am currently undergoing training to become a teacher myself.

I am grateful to my teachers Giancarlo Garofalo and Paola Romanoni of Yoga Lila, Mario Esposito and Susanne Breuer of Purna Yoga, Dinah Rodrigues, Adelene Cheong, Shantala Sriramaiah, Chitra Sukhu and to all the other teachers and students I met during my practice, for helping me to grow, through Yoga, as a person, student and teacher.

MY COOKING

Cooking has always been relaxing for me and it is my other passion besides Yoga: working with the ingredients, using their shapes and colours and thinking of unusual combinations, makes me feel good and allows me to express my creativity.


I consider food as nourishment both for the physical body and the soul. I cook my recipes in harmony with nature, with a special eye to health, but never at the expense of taste. Already for many years I have been preparing dishes that contain no ingredients of animal origin, sugar or industrial products and I only use ingredients which are organic, seasonal and local. I have given my "Yoga in the kitchen" and "Yogalicious" cooking classes at Yoga Lila in Italy, at Volskshochschule in Stuttgart and various yoga studios in Brussels. I wrote 2 recipe e-books which you can purchase here.
