Welcome, I’m Francesca

Yoga teacher Francesca Cervero standing in front of her desk setup holding her phone and looking at the camera and smiling.

I’ve been teaching private and group yoga since 2005.

I combine deep spiritual teachings with the latest in movement science and rehab research, all in a fun, breath-based movement practice. I love sharing my knowledge and experience with other yoga teachers to help them feel more confident in their teaching skills and find their authentic teaching voice. 

My passion lies in the craft of teaching yoga as its own practice. My focus is on teaching yoga in skillful, nurturing, and accessible ways that makes the practice both supportive and meaningful.

Here’s how I can help you create a practice that is supportive and meaningful for you:

Private Yoga Lessons

These personalized sessions are based on your body and your needs. And because they are taught virtually, you can practice anywhere that’s convenient.

“Yoga doesn't need you to show up in any particular way.

You don’t have to have a lot of energy or a quiet mind.

You don’t need to be strong or flexible.

We are not only invited, but welcomed to practice

in the middle of our messy lives,

just as we are right now.”

Homepage Testimonials

I decided on private yoga/movement lessons with Francesca over eight years ago, and her guidance has been invaluable. Francesca takes the time to listen to how I'm doing, then magically designs a session to meet my needs. She's nurturing, flexible, patient, and clear in her explanations. Our customized sessions allow me to focus on what I need for my well-being on a particular day, whether restorative or strength-building. I also love how she guides me into poses and introduces new moves as I progress. We have transitioned to online private sessions without a hitch. (Amazingly, she can even see a toe out of alignment online!)

…To be of use to others in a challenging world, you need to be able, in Francesca’s words, ‘to fill your well.’ This is the precious gift of private lessons with Francesca: a beautiful, calm, knowledgeable voice guiding you through yoga, breathing and rest each week to renew mind, body and spirit.

-Nina S.

Francesca changed my life. Through her understanding of the complex brain-body relationship, she was able to retrain my movement patterns: she helped me get the right muscles working, helped me strengthen those muscles methodically, remedying dysfunctional movements: she taught me how to move into and out of yoga poses safely, and how to do all that without pain. And she does all this over Zoom in her loving, supportive, intuitive fashion. If you have the opportunity to work with Francesca, grab it! She is gifted. She has the skills of a physical therapist, a personal trainer, a spiritual healer, and a yogi.
