Welcome to Kai Ananda Countryside Yoga & Yoga Therapy

Whether you’re brand spanking new at yoga or practice regularly or used to practise and want to re-commit yourself to Welcome!

I’m Carla but my family calls me Kai, you can call me either, I’ve been practising yoga for over 20 years and completed a 500-hour teachers training course in Rishikesh, India, another 300-hour in yoga wellness and 300-hours in yoga therapy. I'm currently studying my final 505-hour of yoga therapy.

I've just started my blog because I'm honestly facing the most difficult time in my life and only yoga has kept me partially sane.



I teach classical hatha yoga as taught by the yogis of the Himalayan masters in Barbados with a slow steady pace, encouraging inner reflection, ideal alignment and proper breathing. Click here for more details on my classes

Classes are in my purpose built yoga studio in St. Philip, Moncrieffe.


I also offer private Yoga classes and Yoga Therapy in Barbados or online on Zoom. Private classes are BDS$75 / US$37.5 for the first person and BDS$30 / US$15 for each additional person.



Yoga classes are 1hr and 15 mins but if you are pressed for time you can choose to leave after the 1hr asana practice, the last 15 mins is pranayama (breathing techniques) and Savasana - relaxation.
