We hold workshops, special events, private sessions, yoga therapy Sessions and yoga classes in different styles such as flow, power, gentle, prenatal, yin, restorative, adaptive/chair, aerial (gentle, flow, conditioning) and more.
​
Concrete Yoga was built as a space for inclusivity, community, non-judgement, and unification. It was built slowly and mindfully with the intent to serve those who are ready to adopt a foundation for wellness that is fun, inviting and health driven, from the inside, out.
​
In 2016, Concrete Yoga began its journey in a beautiful space within the Shops at The Mill complex, on Main St. in Cibolo, Texas. After nearly 3 years in business, it was time to search for a new home so the The Mill Boutique could expand to support their ever-growing community.
​
We were approached by a lovely homeowner in the heart of Old Town Cibolo, just a few hundred feet from our original location. She had been renovating a space just one block away from The Mill. After entering this unfinished space it was clear that the 203 Rawe Avenue location was destined to be the new home of Concrete Yoga. The building was purchased and became what it is today through countless donated hours of work to renovate and create the perfect foundation for Concrete Yoga.

After college, Ana’s yoga practice kept her driven and balanced during the rigors of graduate school.

CARLY BIEHL
FLOW YOGA, YIN + YANG
Carly discovered yoga in high school as an option for satisfying PE requirements. She fell in love with the flow of yoga as it allowed her to connect with and move her body in similar ways as her dance classes. As time went on and the stressors of life and a career in law enforcement subconsciously weighed on her, she used yoga as a method to ground herself and calm the mind. She began her YTT 200-hr training as a path to deepen this relationship within herself but finished realizing her capacity to hold space for others on the mat. She loves creating energetic fun flows to chill beats. She aims to be a conduit for energy to flow through you. Above all, she believes yoga should be accessible to everyone.
​
Carly recently moved with her husband and dog Newton to the San Antonio area. She misses her family, the beach, and summertime afternoon thunderstorms in her hometown of sunny south Florida, but she is excited to establish roots and friends that feel like family here in Cibolo. When she is not teaching or practicing yoga, she is adventuring with her husband, spoiling her pup, or reading a good book.
TEREZA SANCHEZ
Tereza is an avid practitioner and currently working on her RYT 500. She truly enjoys teaching to share the peace and serenity that yoga has brought to her life. Tereza has found that yoga teaches us how to meet life off the mat with a smile, as you face the challenges and discomforts you experience on the mat. She and her husband recently moved to the San Antonio area from Fort Bragg, North Carolina where she had experience teaching yoga to the military community in her spare time.
She enjoys hiking, riding bicycles, discovering new parks from across the US and exploring neighboring countries. She is truly excited to grow as a teacher with her new Texas yoga family and looks forward to experiencing the gratification her students will encounter as we move together in this journey we call life.

She first met her yoga practice during that difficult high school transitional phase at a local gym. She needed a place to find refuge, so she took a class. By the final pose, the air was filled with the scent of lavender and she was feeling very
relaxed. She was hooked!
Yoga has been extremely beneficial and has given her clarity, increased strength/flexibility, and honestly just feels good.
Her yoga practice was always something she could turn to when she needed it. From the joys of healthy pregnancies, the sorrow of a miscarriage to the daily challenges of life, yoga feeds and heals her spirit.
She completed her Yoga Teacher training at Unbound Collective and she is thrilled to be part of this great community.
