Yoga as Art, Spiritual Practice and Embodied Sacred Wisdom
NUBIA TEIXEIRA , Y O G I N I , A U T H O R & Y O G A T E A C H E R .
Welcome,
My name is Nubia Teixeira.
I have been teaching yoga for over 35 years, with a mission to shine new light on the ancient traditions of yoga and make them relevant to our times.
I am Brazilian, and I began studying and teaching yoga in Brazil at the age of 18. From the beginning, I have been uncovering the feminine within the yogic tradition, reshaping its narrative to honor the Goddess as the orienting light in yoga and in the heart of all creation.
I am also a dancer of Odissi, the classical dance of India, and the author of Yoga and the Art of Mudrās, a book that intertwines the beauty of Bhakti (devotion) and Odissi within a Haṭha Yoga sādhanā. I am currently writing my second book, Mother Goddess Yoga, which weaves together Haṭha and Bhakti Yoga, Odissi, and the philosophy of the Śākta tradition.
I founded Mother Goddess Yoga to share my love and devotion for the Divine Mother with fellow bhaktas and seekers. Through this work, I offer online classes and courses, as well as in-person retreats and immersions: sacred, embodied practices that are accessible to all.

Mother Goddess Yoga Immersion @ Omega Institute -NY
From September 6th to September 10th 2027
In this immersive workshop, Nubia Teixeira teaches a yoga sadhana filled with our mother goddess imagery, sacred symbology, and potency. By experiencing yoga in a way that is more honoring of feminine power, you increase your self-acceptance, inner strength, and self-love. You build compassion toward yourself and your life, and ultimately toward all beings.
Yoga and The Art of Mudras Book
Yoga and the Art of Mudras is a guided journey into the alchemy of asana (yoga poses) and mudra (hand gestures).
In this book, Nubia blends her passion and expertise in yoga and dance to create a rare collection of devotional yoga poses.
This collection supports bhaktas (devotees of the heart) in embellishing their yogasanas with meaningful and symbolic hand gestures
from the tradition of the Natya Shastra (the sacred arts of India).
Discover how to use the medium of your hands to cultivate spiritual connection in your life and express bhakti in motion!
