Our new small-group Integral Yoga practice begins this September in Cuenca with Iván Navarro.
Classes combine movement, breath, awareness, and meditation, drawing from Purna Yoga and other yogic traditions according to the needs of the students.
The emphasis isn’t on performing poses or keeping up with a large class.
It’s on developing a practice.
One that supports mobility, strength, flexibility, inner steadiness, and a deeper relationship with your body as it changes over time.
Tuesdays & Thursdays
5:30 PM or 7:30 PM
90-minute classes
Classes take place at SOMA, a new intimate community and wellness space near Parque Tarqui-Guzho and the Universidad de Cuenca Yanuncay campus.
Groups are intentionally small, and we still have space to welcome a few more students.
If you’re in Cuenca and curious about joining us, message Casa Aguacolla for details.

BOURBON & SMOKE — A Bourbon Night at Casa Kraft
Four great bourbons. Four generous food pairings. Just 20 guests.
David and Sandy invite you to Casa Kraft for an intimate evening of great bourbon, authentic Carolina Smokehouse fare, and a relaxed night around the table.
We’ll start with a handcrafted Buffalo Trace Gold Rush — 1½ oz of Buffalo Trace shaken with fresh lemon and honey — paired with an individual charcuterie plate.
Then we’ll settle in for three 1½-ounce bourbon pours, each thoughtfully paired with its own Carolina Smokehouse course:
KNOB CREEK 9 YEAR
Carolina Smokehouse pulled pork over our house-ground creamy cheddar grits, topped with pickled apple, lightly drizzled with our Carolina barbecue sauce, and served with a warm mini cheddar biscuit.
WOODFORD RESERVE
Carolina Smokehouse smoked brisket with bourbon-pepper jus and glazed carrot, accompanied by a fresh arugula salad with beet, pear, feta and toasted pistachios.
MAKER’S MARK 46
Individual Southern pecan pie with a special finishing touch.
Along the way, we’ll have a little fun learning about bourbon — what makes each one different, what to look for in the glass, and especially what happens when you pair it with the right food.
Monday, September 28 • 5:30 PM
Casa Kraft • Cuenca
$45 per person • Limited to just 20 guests

According to current regulations, the minimum income for retiree and pensioner visas must be three times the basic salary of a worker in Ecuador. This year, the basic salary is $482, therefore the minimum income for retirees and pensioners is $1,446. If you do not meet this income requirement, you will not be eligible for a two-year temporary residence visa in these categories.

Imagine yourself three months from now.
You’re not transformed into a different person. You’re Still living the same life.
Still navigating work, relationships, changing bodies, responsibilities, uncertainty; and all the unexpected things life brings.
Yet, perhaps you’re meeting it differently.
Maybe your body moves with a little more ease and balance. You feel stronger and more confident in it.
You notice where you’ve been holding tension. Your breath comes easier and settles deeper.
Maybe you sleep more deeply. Recover more easily from stressful days. Feel a little steadier when life doesn’t go according to plan.
Because as we move through midlife and beyond, wellbeing becomes less about pushing ourselves harder.
It becomes about maintaining our capacity to live fully.
To move. To adapt. To remain connected to our bodies.
To meet change without losing ourselves within it.
None of this comes from one extraordinary class. It comes from practice. Showing up twice a week.
Moving. Breathing. Paying attention.
Returning again and again.
Over time, what happens on the yoga mat can begin to accompany you into the rest of your life.
Our small Integral Yoga groups meet Tuesdays and Thursdays at 5:30 PM and 7:30 PM at SOMA in Cuenca.
If you’re curious about what a consistent practice might make possible for you, message Casa Aguacolla.
