ANDREA CLEMENTE
Hi! My name is Andrea. I am a health and wellness coach based in Miami Beach, FL. I started this journey teaching only yoga, but I have since realized that I also love helping people with their day to day routines and teaching others how to get in tune with their bodies, their intuition, and to achieve true health.
I received my first 200 hour Hatha certification in March of 2014 through senior
teacher Chad Hamrin – an innovative and renowned “teacher’s teacher” – with whom I continue to study closely. I completed a second 200-hour training with YogaWorks in July 2015, and I completed their 300-hour professional program in July 2016. In 2018 I began studying Centered Yoga with Dona Holleman.
After I completed my training at YogaWorks in 2016, I began addressing some chronic health issues with Ayurveda. Ayurveda goes hand-in-hand with yoga, and over the years I have learned that you can not truly practice one without the other. Where Western Medicine failed me, I was able to heal myself with Ayurveda. I have been incorporating the philosophies and practices of both Yoga and Ayurveda into my daily life ever since, and in February of 2022 I became certified as an Ayurvedic Wellness Coach.
I have evolved from yoga teacher to health and wellness coach. My purpose is to help others by drawing from every modality I practice, not only yoga asana. While I love asana, it is just a tiny piece of the practice as a whole. Yoga and Ayurveda together are a lifestyle that includes healthful eating practices, meditation, mindfulness, and compassion in addition to your physical practice. I’m here to help you navigate all of that.
In addition to private sessions in yoga, strength training, flexibility training, and health/wellness coaching, I can also provide astrological birth chart readings. Understanding your birth chart is a powerful tool for self-study, which is one of the base principles of the practice. If you’ve never had your chart read, it’s incredible how validating it can be. It can help you to tune in to what it is that you, in all of your divine individuality, personally need to thrive.
My sessions are designed to help each soul delve deeper into their personal practices. I absolutely love working with people one-on-one because this is when we can truly be in the moment and explore the nuances of the practice together. It’s exciting! In this space we can spend time working out what practices are appropriate for YOUR body, understanding what that means, why it’s important, learning to become sensitive enough to feel energetic shifts, and so much more! I can fill many roles, from personal trainer to flexibility coach to massage therapist to life coach – but my approach for all of these things comes from the teachings of yoga. My wish is to invite you along on this yogic path and show you how it fits into every aspect of your life. Learning asana (physical postures) is one small piece of it, and it is indeed where most of us begin. Through our work together, I hope to show you how you can keep showing up for yourself until you no longer need me.
On the path to self discovery and realization it is important for people to truly explore their own practice. Part of doing so requires careful examination of the state of our body, mind, and spirit when presented with different (and sometimes difficult) circumstances. This doesn’t come naturally to most of us, and we need a caring hand to guide us along the beginning of that path. I am here to be that person for you.
I fell in love with this practice because there is always something new to learn; about our bodies, about our lives, about how we choose to react to life’s various challenges, and why. Yoga is an infinitely eye opening and profound tool one can use to heal. I have experienced this in my own life and practice and I love sharing the journey with others.
I believe that yoga is a gift for all to partake in. It is a personal evolution, at once physical, mental, and spiritual. It appeals to the analytical brain and the depths of the emotional and spiritual bodies simultaneously. It is from this place that I graciously share what I’ve learned over the years to help you on your own path.
