YogaFor me, Yoga is a never-ending exploration of the body and mind, and a way of discovering the beauty of life. As we bring the awareness to what is happening inside and where we are in the present moment, the body is encouraged to release where it is holding. The Scaravelli inspired approach is an invitation to play with gravity, free the breath and find space in the body to allow it to move to its full potential. That way the body can start to work deeper and move more freely into yoga postures, exploring how these openings and connections can help us un-do habitual (and potentially painful) holding patterns. Then we can embark on a journey of restoration and transformation.
Classes offer a fun and in-depth exploration of movement and individual postures with the aim of finding more space in the body and accessing deeper strength and a more congruent alignment. We look for ways to create the conditions in the body so great movement feels effortless. YogaPara mim, o yoga é uma exploração infinita do corpo e da mente e uma forma de descobrir a beleza da vida. À medida que trazemos à consciência o que se passa no nosso interior e onde estamos no presente momento, o corpo é encorajado a libertar as zonas onde está mais bloqueado. A abordagem inspirada no Scaravelli é um convite para jogar com a gravidade, libertar a respiração e encontrar espaço no corpo para que este se mova em todo o seu potencial. Desta forma, o corpo pode começar a funcionar mais profundamente e mover-se com maior liberdade nas posições de yoga, explorando como estas aberturas e ligações podem ajudar-nos a desfazer habituais (e muito dolorosos) padrões de bloqueio. Podemos então embarcar numa viagem de restauração e transformação.
Aulas oferecem uma exploração divertida e aprofundada do movimento e posições individuais, com o objectivo de encontrar mais espaço no corpo e aceder a uma força mais profunda e a um alinhamento mais coerente. Procuramos formas de criar no corpo as condições para que grandes movimentos não precisem de grande esforço. "I learned a ton and wish I was around to have a few more sessions with you. You were right - working slow doesn't mean working less. I loved your approach, it put so much into perspective. Thank you again for the great session." ~ Igor Fernandes
