“I don't want to be someone someone else; I want to live in a fuller, more beautiful, and more alive version of myself. I want a body that hurts less and is more available, a less noisy and more spacious mind, a less shallow and more meaningful life, a social environment where I can feel myself. A place to come back.”
WHAT IS YOGA?
Yoga is the cessation of mental fluctuations. It is a state of unity between body, mind, and spirit that can be achieved through certain techniques that are originated in India. In the Yoga Sutras—texts dating back to approximately the 3rd century B.C.— Patañjali teaches eight limbs for achieving this state through the observation and control of the mind.
WHAT IS OUR METHOD?
Our method consists mainly in two techniques: Asana (physical postures) and Pranayama (mindful breathing). Through both, the rest will begin to awaken naturally within you: Yamas (mindfulness in your relationship with your surroundings), Niyamas (in your relationship with yourself), Pratyāhāra (withdrawal of the senses), Dhāranā (concentration), Dhyāna (meditation), and perhaps one day Samādhi (liberation).
The physical and mental demand of each method varies according to its intention. Therefore, always in search of balance and individual harmony, we focus on both Yin sequences (passive, gentle and slow postures) and Yang sequences (active, dynamic and stimulating postures), both based on the classic postures of haṭha yoga.
The yin yang principle, used in Chinese medicine and acupuncture, refers to the dual basis of the world in which we live, governed by polarities and intermediate zones. It is these complementary opposites (dark and light, cold and heat, soft and hard, etc.) that allow all things to coexist in balance. They are two sides of the same coin, one cannot exist without the other.
Yin Yoga combines the knowledge of Yoga and Chinese Taoist philosophy. The essence of this method is to be in harmony with the rhythm and flow of nature, owning a permissive and listening attitude. This allows the prāṇa (vital energy) to circulate through the body calming the mind, revitalizing organs, the fascia, tendons and ligaments.
