Born and raised in Spain, Menchu has trained and taught in the Netherlands, India, the UK and Ireland. She integrates her personal journey of healing the body and balancing the mind, with her constant curiosity for knowing about the true make up of being human. Her passion is to share this knowledge and to help others improve their quality of life.
Menchu's classes are student-centred, adapting each class to the participants' specific needs. She both challenges her students to go beyond their perceived limitations, as well as encourages them to accept those. All this infused with light-heartedness and a quirky sense of humour, inviting her students to join in.
Menchu is a yoga therapist and an Ayurvedic Yoga masseuse. She teaches mostly yin, mindfulness and pregnancy yoga within private, corporate and studio classes and workshops. In 2013, she founded her company, Amshala, as a platform to make the benefits of yoga accessible to everybody, and especially to people with a chronic condition.
