Mourning a Remarkable Life: Ulla Capra
The picturesque town of Vercelli is pausing to collect its thoughts, and perhaps its chakras, as it mourns the loss of a beloved local luminary, Ulla Capra. Aged 60 and remarkably unyielding in the face of illness, she exemplified the spirit of resilience—much like yoga itself, just without the stretchy pants and an unfortunate bout of sweat beading on the forehead!
Her Dual Legacy: Doctor and Yogi
Known by many as the town’s go-to veterinarian, Ulla’s gentle, caring touch wasn’t just reserved for our four-legged friends. She was also the founder of the ZenZero association, which is a bit ironic considering life can often feel like a Zen whirlpool of chaos! Whether she was fixing a sprained paw or leading a yoga class, Ulla worked her magic with both compassion and grace.
For those in Vercelli and beyond, her dual roles as a veterinarian and yoga teacher established her as a bridge between the natural world and human existence—a sort of patching-up extraordinaire, if you will. I mean, one minute you’re getting your at-risk cat spayed, and the next, you’re finding your inner peace in downward dog. Talk about a holistic approach!
Condolences Pouring In
The heartfelt tributes flooding social media could fill a library—if libraries also housed emotional outpourings. The mayor of Asigliano Vercellese has publicly shared condolences, highlighting how Ulla was not just a professional but a friend to her community. “On behalf of the entire community,” he said, sounding remarkably like someone who has just wrestled with the idea of ‘putting feelings into words.’ We all appreciate a good bit of formality, don’t we?
Ulla leaves behind three children: Giacomo, Greta, and Gabriele. Now, in a world where parental figures can often feel like they’ve been sponsored by the ‘How to Raise Children by Yoga’ manual, she provided a grounding presence through both motherhood and mentorship. One can imagine those family gatherings being a delightful mix of quiet introspection and chaotic energy, all perfectly balanced in true Zen fashion!
A Final Farewell
A keen observer of life’s beauty, Ulla’s journey has now drawn to a close; and while the funeral chapel at Sant’Andrea hospital in Vercelli opens today, her legacy—intertwined with ideals of compassion, harmony with nature, and a touch of yoga wisdom—will continue to inspire. Surely, there’s a yoga asana named after her somewhere, and it involves balancing your troubles on your head while smiling like you just had the best cup of herbal tea?
As we remember Ulla Capra, let’s not just mourn her passing but celebrate the vibrant, dedicated life she led. Perhaps it’s time for us all to sip some herbal tea, do a few sun salutations, and give our pets an extra scratch behind the ears—all in her honor!

Sadly, she had been battling an illness for about a year before her untimely death.
Ulla was fondly remembered by many who knew her during her tenure at the veterinary practice operated by Roberto Gianinetti and Emilia Rinaldi. Her influence extended beyond the clinic; as the founder of the ZenZero association, she offered yoga courses that inspired countless individuals to embrace healthier lifestyles.
