During this Workshop we will bring the focus on the point of the Mysore-style methodology, which by its nature honours each student’s constitution, body, emotions, personal development.

Mysore-style is the equivalent of a private master class with the support of group energy. When a student finds his or her 'yoga home', indeed, it is like coming back home.

Using different techniques you will find your own understanding and the right way of practising without changing the core of Ashtanga tradition.

You will gather various tips about how to balance your weakness and strength, how to work with pain, how to develop stability.

How to keep your body safe and slowly develop the healthy flexibility in your forward bends, strength in your backbends and stability in all inversions. 

All levels are welcome !!!
