Samantha Ortiz

Samantha Ortiz is a trauma-informed yoga teacher from the Bronx, dedicated to creating spaces for healing and self-discovery. As a Latina and second-generation Puerto Rican, Samantha’s personal struggles with anxiety, a strong inner critic, and perfectionism led her to yoga and meditation as tools for transformation and resilience. Samantha specializes in offering loving-kindness meditation (Metta), a practice that fosters compassion, warmth, and goodwill toward oneself and others. As someone who has worked to embrace all parts of herself and build a more compassionate relationship within, she guides others in reconnecting with their inner light and sense of worth. With a focus on nervous system regulation and compassionate self-exploration, Samantha’s mission is to help individuals reconnect with their inner light and honor all parts of themselves. She is passionate about making these practices accessible and empowering for anyone seeking healing and balance.

Right on time. I relate very strongly. Wanting to surrender to the unknown and unknowable but at the same time seeking answers, wisdom, direction. Waiting is hard. But, it seems, sometimes necessary.
