YOGA

The most famous definition of Yoga is “city – vritti – nirodha” or “cessation of mental agitation” … and only those with a calm and completely stable mind become aware of thier true nature.

Yoga is a method that allows us to rediscover the natural rhythm of the body, gradually freeing ourselves of impurities and the constant flow of ego thoughts that the mind tends to create. The fundamental purpose of Yoga is therefore to help gain awarness of your inner self, in other words achieving a complete union with oneself.
You will follow the path of Hatha Yoga, which is the first approach and the foundation of all yoga systems.

Classes are based on the recovery of proper breathing and basic respect for the body, without forcing you, you will begin to practice the techniques of stretching and Asana ‘yoga positions, that made consciously and consistently lead to physical and mental well-being.

Asana practice helps you to:
• balance the vital functions
• improve blood circulation
• correct posture
• balance the internal organs
• strengthen the respiratory system
• Increase flexibility
• Improve muscle tone
• reduce stress
• increase the ability to concentrate
• Increase mental clarity

In this aura of peace and serenity you can also rejuvenate yourself with a relaxing massage that helps you dissolve toxins, reduce stress and tensions, and help rebalance your body, mind and psyche. Otherwise after a day of sport, you can take advantage of our sports massage which helps you decrease muscle tension and has a drainig effect.
