Their Classes
Purifying Ashtanga Class
Ashtanga Yoga emphasizes efficiency and economy of movement. Transitions between postures are designed to be minimal and concise, allowing practitioners to conserve energy and maintain the flow of the practice. The postures are arranged in a specific order, allowing for progressive opening and strengthening of the body. This class aims to create a flow, transitioning from standing and seated poses, backbends, and inversions, ensuring a balanced practice for the entire body. The combination of balancing, grounding and calming postures, presents the mind with the challenge of navigating through different phases while maintaining control over the breath. This practice brings us back to our centre, allowing us to respond to stressors with more clarity and composure. Luisa will guide the class with the aim to make this practice accessible for everybody. With the awareness that each body comes with different conditions, she will offer variations of the Asanas and focus on the alignment of the body.
