A passion for fitness led Arceli “Pinky” Bacsinila, owner of Skylight Yoga & Fitness, in Naples, to help move the evolution of yoga along by combining the ancient practice with different forms of fitness training such as Pilates, kickboxing, kettlebells, weights and other resistance-type equipment that offers a full-body workout.

“Skylight Yoga & Fitness is a boutique yoga, Pilates, and fitness studio that provides a balanced approach to health and well-being, with classes that boost physical health, improve mental health and enrich spiritual health. I see the evolution of yoga as a healthy phenomenon. The new varieties of interpretations of a yoga practice help to make yoga more attracted to many people who would not otherwise be drawn to it,” says Bacsinila. She also offers group and private training and is available to teach in corporate and other business settings.
