IllUMINATE YOUR HEART YOGA 

“The combination of yoga poses and the breath illuminates the heart and creates a path to health and inner peace.”

Anna Lucatorto obtained her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Health Administration. Anna developed a passion for yoga during her graduate studies after discovering the positive effects of consistent practice. Her practice allowed her to nurture her body, mind, and spirit.

The most profound experience for Anna is how her heart feels after practicing yoga. From her experiences, she believes the combination of yoga poses and the breath illuminates the heart and creates a path to health and inner peace. Anna became a yoga instructor to share her positive yoga experiences with others.

Anna is an RYT-200 certified Yoga Instructor with the Yoga Alliance. She studied Ashtanga yoga at the Little Yoga House in Wantagh, New York. Upon receiving her credentials in January 2013, Anna has been transmitting yoga practice to victims of violence, nursing home residents, corporate employees, and fitness club members.

Anna brings her compassion, creativity, and caring nature to the mat in her classes. This is demonstrated through her energy, sequencing, and connection to her students.

Through various teaching and personal experiences, Anna was inspired to create and trademark Illuminate Your Heart Yoga™ (IYH). The mission of IYH is to touch the hearts of as many people as possible through teaching yoga and allowing them to satisfy the goals within their spirit.

“Practice and all is coming,” stated Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, one of Anna’s favorite inspirational yoga quotes. She applies this message to her yoga practice as well as her life.
