Raquel Bueno

Serving: Nashville, TN

Raquel Bueno (Yoga Therapist, Viniyoga Facilitator, EYRT500, YACEP, Yin) is a lifelong student and dedicated teacher of yoga, with over three decades of deep practice and study. Rooted in the classical Viniyoga lineage—passed from Krishnamacharya to his son, Mr. Desikachar, and then to her teacher, Chase Bossart—Raquel carries forward this tradition with reverence and authenticity. In the same vein, as a Yoga Therapist, Raquel approaches the challenges we face with attention and care, addressing a person, not a problem. She experiences life’s twists and turns as an opportunity for insight into relieving suffering and returning to a state of balance.

Services Provided:

  • Yoga Therapy
  • Mindfulness

Alongside her devotion to yoga, Raquel has cultivated a long-standing Zen Buddhist practice, receiving her Buddhist precepts (Jukai) in 2002. The interweaving of these traditions has shaped her teaching into a tapestry of care, presence, and deep connection, creating spaces where students feel both seen and supported. As a multicultural Mexican-American, she embraces the philosophy of “allowing” to inspire students of all identities and backgrounds to step into practice as they are and to forge a more intimate connection with spirit.

Raquel is unendingly humbled by the profound impact of yoga and by students who practice with her—they inspire her to approach every class, workshop, and conversation as an opportunity to learn. Both a guide and a seeker, she is continually shaped by the teachings she shares and the ever-unfolding experience of being alive.
