Maria Escudero Ortiz

Mallorca, Spain, 01/02/1975

I’m Maria. My childhood was spent in Huesca, where I cultivated my passion for mountain sports, dance, and gymnastics. I began my training in Design and Architecture, a trajectory that took about 20 years until health issues led me to rethink my path. In 2004, on the advice of my mother, I began to explore Yoga, which changed my perspective in profound ways.

After 3 years of constant practice, I traveled to India, where my teacher Sindu shared with me traditional Yoga teachings. In 2010, I started teaching Acroyoga alongside Lucas, and since then, I haven’t stopped teaching. We formed with Jason & Jenny in 2011. For many years, I collaborated with Sindu in Yoga teacher trainings, teaching alignment in asanas and Acroyoga and Thai massage with Lucas, as well as having created my own Teacher Training Certification (TTC).

Together with Lucas, we have been training teachers and founded our Acroyogathai community in Kerala, India. This community is a tool for those who seek self-knowledge, working equally for our personal growth. Naturally, with years of practice and the need to train WELL, our material was born: YOGA.THAI.ASANAS – The Aesthetics of Statics.

Lucas Nunes Barbosa

São José do Rio Preto, Brazil, 09/10/1976

I’m Lucas. I was born in Brazil and got to know Buddhism and Yoga there. In 2008, I arrived in Europe and immersed myself in the daily practice of Acroyoga as well. I have been teaching both disciplines since 2009. Since then, I have constantly participated in workshops and trainings in alignment, pranayama, acrobatics and Thai Massage.

Together with Maria, we deepen our acrobatic technique constantly. We have been training both students and teachers of Acroyoga and Yoga for 9 years, providing personalized attention and constant feedback, with the purpose of infusing even more elements of Yoga into the practice of Acroyoga and everyday life.

Throughout our career, Maria and I have developed our own techniques. Our extensive experience has established us as a benchmark in this field: we have co-written the ACRO.YOGA.THAI ASANAS – The Aesthetics of Statics, highly praised book, considered among the best in the world of Acroyoga.
Today, Maria and I continue to share our knowledge and teach Yoga and Acroyoga around the world, cementing our reputation as leading experts in this field.

We are the authors of the book ACRO.YOGA.THAI - ASANAS - The Aesthetics of Statics

“Perfect for beginners in Acroyoga, and also great for veteran practitioners. Lots of detailed step-by-step images of each pose!! The whole collection is worth buying!!” – Victor Satoshi

We do the best we can every day, with simplicity and perseverance. Without realizing it, we have touched the hearts of many people in a special way:

I have to express my gratitude to Lucas for his private yoga lessons!! As a beginner, his patient approach tailored to my level has helped me build a solid foundation. Their dedication and care are invaluable... Thank you for your exceptional guidance!

Hi Lucas! How are you? I would simply like to tell you that for me you have been a great guide to take up the Acro, with you I learned discipline and I understood that behind your words there was a lot of love and trust. I then believed it was also placed in me and I could achieve it.

I started my acroyoga training in Kerala with acroyogathai because I wanted to delve deeper into this practice. The experience of living in a remote Indian town, by the sea, and with amazing companions helped me improve both physically and spiritually in the practice.

More than 10 years attending Lucas' classes, despite living 70km away from the center. His classes never cease to amaze and improve me both physically and mentally: constant inquiry and awareness, always with personalized attention suitable for our needs. He helps you bring out the best in yourself and surpass yourself weekly.

Lucas and Maria are amazing as teachers and as people. Their warmth and the way they make you feel heard in each class are unique. Thank you for being so attentive in every session!

I cannot express how grateful I am for the quality of teaching I have received from Lucas and Maria. Their book is a manifestation of their deep knowledge: every page is a jewel of wisdom. Guys, thank you for sharing your experience and for being a constant source of inspiration!
