Fundamental Asana Practice:
During the training, you will dive into the practice of fundamental yoga asanas (postures) to develop strength, flexibility, and body awareness. Our experienced teachers will guide you through proper alignment, modifications, and variations, ensuring a safe and effective practice. You will learn to explore your edge and deepen your understanding of each posture, cultivating a strong and mindful practice.

Breathwork (pranayama) and meditation are integral parts of yoga practice. Through dedicated sessions, you will learn various pranayama techniques to enhance breath awareness, balance energy, and calm the mind. Guided meditation practices will help you cultivate mindfulness, inner peace, and the ability to be fully present in the moment.
