Welcome!

Hi! I’m Carla Tucson!

Welcome to my world of movement, music and joy.

It is my mission to keep people moving and tuning in to their bodies through training other’s to teach movement classes, helping to develop active aging programming, facilitating active classes, Parkinson’s classes, yoga, breath work and mindful movement and functional movement classes.

In addition to movement classes, I also sing and play ukulele in senior living facilities, small local venues and private gatherings.

My background is in Hatha Yoga and while I teach active yoga classes regularly (online and in person),, I have also specialized in teaching a variety of classes for elder students and those with more specific needs, these classes include :

*Parkinson’s Movement Classes,

*Non-Contact Boxing for women and seniors,

*Active seated movement classes,

*Modified Yoga,

*Chair Yoga,

*Beginning strengthening classes for women

and more!

I am a 200hr E-RYT (Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher), PWR! Instructor, have experience as a RSB Coach (Rock Steady Boxing), I have my own fitness business and place teachers into Independent living, assisted living and memory care facilities to facilitate movement classes

I created (from the ground up) and successfully ran a bustling wellness program at a local healthcare non-profit in Tucson, Arizona for 2 years, from 2022-2024. we were at capacity within the year and still thriving when I left the programming.

students of varying ages and abilities had a safe space to exercise and create new connections in our community during those precious years.

our programming accommodated primarily senior aged students with no diagnosis as well as those of a variety of ages and diagnosis including students with Parkinson’s, dementia, aphasia, and MCI (Mild Cognitive Decline).

I chose to leave the program behind so I could build my business and create an even more vibrant community. now I am reaching more people, teaching more classes and creating even more connections.

I am, ready to change and inspire the world, one class, one person, one training at a time.

I've been practicing yoga for 15 years, teaching yoga for 13 years, and teaching specialized movement for 12 years,

Here are a few of the trainings that I have participated in through the years to help me expand my skill set and knowledge base, including, but not limited to:

•PWR! Moves Instructor Training
•Rainbow Kids Yoga Training
•Validation Therapy Training
•Street Yoga Training
•Rock Steady Boxing Training

•dementia friends training
