SOME INFORMATION ON THE PRACTICES OUR CENTRE OFFERS

🕉️ Yoga flow is a dynamic style. Through the synchronisation of breath with movement, it combines a sequence of postures into a single flow. Energetic, it helps to restore fluidity in the body and flexibility.

☯️ Qi Gong: designed to improve our state of health by mobilising our body’s energy, QI (Chi) or vital energy, to heal, revitalise and develop us spiritually. It combines static and dynamic exercises, gentle movements, stretching, self-massage, breathing, visualisation, meditation and relaxation.

🕉️ Anukalana means integration, it is a proposal to the practice of Yoga and Meditation that, based on the ancient tradition of Tantra, integrates rudiments of disciplines that share its aims and principles such as Qi Gong and Tai Chi. It is a practice based above all on fluid movement, which has always been the basis of traditional Indian practices such as dance and martial arts and, of course, Yoga.

🕉️ Gentle Yoga has a very gentle approach. It is suitable for people of all ages, women during pregnancy (from the third month) and those with back pain. The positions will be modified and adapted to the needs of the practitioners using tools (cushions, blocks, blankets, etc.).

🕉️ Hatha Sivananda is a classical style. The sequence is always the same. It is divided into a part dedicated to pranayama (breathing exercises), a second to the sun salutation (dynamic part), a third to a sequence of postures that work the whole body, ending with deep relaxation.

🕉️ Anusara is a method that has no fixed sequence. The whole class is focused on opening and preparing the body to arrive at a final apex posture (more or less complex) in an easy way. A theme is introduced at the beginning of the class and the lesson is very much related to that specific theme. The method is based on universal alignment principles. It is very attentive to anatomy and biomechanics of movement. The Anusara method gives stability and grounding and at the same time freedom and fluidity. The philosophy follows the lineage of non-dual Tantric Shivaism.

☯️ Yin yoga is a very introspective style of yoga. One enters a position slowly and gradually and then holds it for 3 to 5 minutes. This type of practice does not work on the muscles but on the connective tissues. It is inspired by the Taoist principle of Yin and Yang, stimulating the Chinese meridians to encourage the good flow of energy.
