About the project
We really think that yoga should be known and spread to anyone as a chance for a healthy and conscious life. This is why in February 2022 we decided to open our studio in Modica, with daily classes open to everyone.
“The Yoga House” is held by Martina, an authorized yoga teacher with a 200 hrs Yoga Alliance teacher training and more than 10 years of self practice. She will guide you with kindness and care through this journey across the Yoga path.
CLASSES
HATHA SHIVANANDA
The method of Hatha Yoga is based on slow and aware movements through the breath.
Postures are held for a long time, keeping the breath calm and the mind steady. The whole being become stronger and relaxed at the same time, getting free of physical and emotional tensions and learning to listen to the inner voice. The class ends with a deep relaxation in Shavasana to help the nervous system calm down.
POSTURAL YOGA
Yoga postures (Asana) and conscious breathing (Pranayama) can be really helpful for our body posture.
Postural diseases are often related to muscles weakness and a lack of proprioception, as well as to emotional matters. This is why Yoga, acting both on outer and inner body, is very effective. I twill give us the tools to really improve our posture and living a healthier life.
Postural Yoga classes are open to any level of practice.
ASHTANGA YOGA
Ashtanga Yoga is a kind of dynamic Hatha Yoga. This practice consist of different series, in which postures follows a specific order. Movement is connected with breath through a continuous flow that helps to keep the mind focused on the present.
Although it can seems a physically demanding practice, Ashtanga Yoga is actually very meditative and calming. As the body gets srtonger and more flexible, so is the breath and the mind.
Ashtanga, in fact, means “eight limbs”, as the steps described to Patanjali for a path through yoga. The physical practice is just one of them, the other being directed towards the inner space to develope a deeper connection with our true self.
PRENATAL YOGA
Prenatal Yoga is a new entry course designed for moms to be, to support them suring such a sensitive and emotional phase of their life.
During classes we will explore soft and easy poses to help the body stay helthy and strong, besides specific breathing tecnique and short meditation to provide useful tools for awareness and relaxation.
Prenatal Yoga can be attended after the first trimester of pregnancy.
