Let’s awake to the Spring with yoga!
Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Retreat
with Carla Ricci
from 3 April to 6 April 2015
at La locanda del galluzzo
www.locandadelgalluzzo.it
The spring is the ideal moment for helping the body to awake.
Practicing Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga with awareness and joy, eating healthy food prepared with love and care and spending some time together in harmony, will help both the body and the mind to free themselves and awake from their winter slumber.
We will bask in the beauty of the Umbrian countryside by the magical Lake Trasimeno, where the air is full of vital energy!
If necessary a translation in the English language will be available.
In the morning ashtanga vinyasa yoga in its traditional form and in the afternoon analysis of the vinyasa method, of the bandha and of specific postures (techniques for understanding how the asana works in the physical and energetic sense and in order to avoid getting injured).
Together we will practice pranayama, chants and meditation.
The retreat is for both beginners and those who have already been practicing for some time (first and second series).
Sunday 5 April, Easter Sunday, you will have the chance to take part in a short cookery course dedicated to desserts, with our chef and nutritionist Marco Proietti (the cost of the course is 20 euros per person and is not included in the fee of the retreat). Whoever does not wish to take part will be able to go on a short excursion or can simply relax in peace and enjoy the surroundings of this beautiful location.
We suggest you bring your own yoga mat.
