About
Tomas Tealdi
Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Tomas Tealdi began his yoga journey at an early age under the warm guidance of his mother who was also a yoga teacher. Despite growing up in a full yoga environment, his first choice of discipline as a young adult was martial arts. For several years, he immersed himself in Kung Fu, Tai Chi and Chi Kung. During his stay in Thailand, he practised Vipassana meditation that completely shifted his perspectives towards life.
​
While he was still working in a construction site, he casually walked into a yoga studio and met Javier Castro, the owner and the principal teacher at Yogashala Institute in Marbella. Motivated by Javier’s strong encouragement, Tomas continued to practice and went on to complete 500 hour teacher training.
After Tomas was introduced to ‘The Rocket’, he was immediately hooked by its dynamic style which was aligned with his nature. He attended his first Rocket teacher training by ‘It’s Yoga International’. Around the same time, he met Tiago Rocha, a renowned Rocket teacher in Barcelona, who eventually led him to train with David Kyle (aka Baba Rocket) of Progressive Ashtanga Yoga.
​
Tomas’s dynamic and often humorous teaching style appeals to students of many backgrounds and experiences. He continues to practise, and teach Rocket and Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga through his classes, workshops, retreats and teacher trainings. He is a Rocket® Vinyasa Certified Teacher, E-RYT 500 and Continuous Education Provider under Yoga Alliance.
