Studios of the Central Valley
Prana Yoga
Prana Yoga was a small private studio in San Rafael de Escazú, west of San José, where Evelyn Tellez taught vinyasa, prenatal and therapeutic yoga. We couldn't confirm it still runs in November 2026; Krama Yoga in nearby Santa Ana is a current option.
Update, November 2026: We couldn't confirm Prana Yoga is still running. Its old website no longer works, and we found no current listing for the studio or for Evelyn Tellez teaching in Escazú. Check directly before you plan a class. Krama Yoga, in nearby Pozos de Santa Ana, is open.
Prana Yoga was the home studio of Evelyn Tellez, who began practicing yoga in 2000 and started teaching in 2008, after a degree in finance. She trained with Costa Rican and visiting teachers in ashtanga, vinyasa and Anusara yoga.
What it offered
The studio was in a private home in San Rafael de Escazú, one of the western suburbs of San José. In 2012 it ran:
- Vinyasa classes from beginner to advanced
- Prenatal yoga
- Therapeutic yoga
- Private and semi-private sessions
Evelyn also taught group classes at other venues in San José and Santa Ana. Her vinyasa classes were known as demanding, asking for strength, focus and patience, but taught in a friendly way.
