Iyengar Yoga Workshop
Relaxed and strengthened in the
Autumn
Location: Wackerfabrik - Darmstadt
Contribution: 150,- €
Meditation and breathing awareness encompass the entire practice, in all exercises, and also 'beyond the mat', while we are in nature, at the communal brunch. And also after the workshop, when new good habits will continue to accompany you after the weekend.
Pranayama is a subtle practice, it is not as obvious as raising an arm, in fact it is barely visible, but Pranayama is noticeable. With the appropriate techniques we approach this art in yoga.
The asana practice is dynamic and powerful, but in balance it is regenerative and gentle. Both sides of yoga complement each other, with the goal of better understanding your own body, straightening it up, and experiencing the interaction between body and mind more deeply.

Yoga offers great potential for physical and mental well-being. It is a joy to work with your own body in a variety of ways and to straighten and open up both body and mind. Improved breathing, pain relief, emotional well-being through stress reduction, increased energy, increased self-confidence and improved concentration are just some of the positive effects. Real inner straightening has even deeper effects.

Yoga training for teachers & educators:
Topic: Yoga for children
Location: Sportjugend Hessen, Frankfurt
In this training, the basics are taught through your own yoga practice and information on
theoretical background is provided. Participants receive practical advice on how yoga exercises can be incorporated into lessons with children aged 6 and over.
Regular yoga practice has been proven to improve children's motor skills and ability to concentrate. Dynamic yoga sequences lasting just five to seven minutes can have positive effects. The training course teaches both short and longer yoga sequences.
An essential prerequisite for working successfully with children is your own understanding of yoga, so your own yoga practice is also a topic.
