What inspires me daily on the path of Yoga, in addition to my personal investigation, study and regular practice, is to live the event of Life itself adapting and embracing circumstances as they really are. The contact with all those with whom I relate, whether they are family, friends, students, yogis, saints or someone I just met are also a real source of Inspiration. 

I was born in Madeira Island, in Portugal, studied engineering and Yoga came into my life in 1997. 

I did my first Yoga Teacher Training Course in 2003, in Spain. In the following year with the desire to learn and deepen more, I traveled to India for the first time, being in contact with yogis, yoginis and teachers from different traditions, practices and yogic life styles. I lived with them mostly in ashram and in a kutir (small hut) into the forest enviroment. This experience had a big impact in my life. All over the years I have been regular in contact and continue to visit and learn with some of them.

Me and my life companion Lídia Marques, managed and teached in our own center, Yoga Kshetra, for more than 10 years, a school dedicated exclusively to Yoga and Meditation.

I am teaching since 2002 in Portugal, also teached and guided groups in India and I am dedicated to training new teachers since 2012 in Yoga, Meditation and more recently in Yoga Therapy.
