sivananda open class

In the Sivananda tradition all Yoga classes follow the same structure, last 90 minutes and include:

• Short initial relaxation
• Pranayama, breathing exercises
• Sun Salutation, dynamic sequence
• Asana, yoga postures
• Deep relaxation (10 minutes)

The practice is very balanced: the spine is exercised in all its possible directions of movement, promoting flexibility and toning all the nerves. The importance given to breathing and relaxation helps to concentrate during the practice of asana. The mind is withdrawn from daily thoughts. One experiences physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing and at the end of each class feels energised and at the same time very calm.

Intensive workshop on Sunday 9 October from 10am to 6pm: introduction to the practice of asana, pranayama and to some of the main concepts of the Yoga philosophy (in Italian). For more information or bookings please email info@yogaincentro.it

programme

pregnancy yoga

One can take part in the Hatha 1 Open Classes or, better, in the Yoga for the Back class. However, before starting it is necessary to organise a couple of one-on-one sessions with the teacher to be familiarised with the class adjustments required during pregnancy.

meditation

An ancient practice which is becoming increasingly important for modern life. Learning to watch one’s own mind and the bubbling thoughts; then detaching from it all, without judgement nor reaction. The mind becomes one pointed and one learns to live an active life with awareness and calmness, in harmony with others and with nature. Meditation is the essence of Yoga.
