| All-in-Yoga - Vassiliki-Bessy Trigka Forrest Yoga Representative in Greece | |
| Address: | Athens, Greece |
| Contact: | Email: info [at] allinyoga.com |
| Website: | www.all-in-yoga.com | Yoga Links |
| Instructor: | Vassiliki-Bessy Trigka |
| Yoga Style: | Forrest Yoga, Hatha Yoga, Vinyasa Flow based on Jivamukti Method |
| Specialties: | Forrest Yoga Advanced Instructor, Forrest Yoga Workshops, Retreats, Private Yoga Instructor, Meditation Instructor |
| Description:
|
The "All-in-Yoga" expression accurately describes in just three simple words our Great Vision, concerning our effort to increase exercising through the practice of Yoga, for all modern people regardless their gender, age, education, profession, trade or any other characteristic. |
| Bessy Trigka, founder of All-in-Yoga, is well known in the sports field for her unconditional love and loyalty for Yoga. This love gradually evolved to a noble passion, and her instinctive spontaneous desire to transmit this gift of life, she discovered in Yoga, to all people, pushed her towards a specific cause: to study and offer Yoga to EVERYONE (All-in-Yoga). She managed to enrich her so far specialized knowledge, by completing successfully one of the most demanding Yoga Teacher Training programs in the world, held in Boston USA, studying the Forrest Yoga® System next to Ana Forrest (inventor and founder of Forrest Yoga®). | |
| We all can exercise substantially through Yoga (or as many people put it: «let's do Yoga», from the flexible young child to an elder individual who faces some difficulty, therefore has the need, to activate his/her body). Most forms of exercise or gymnastics are either unable to include every part of the body in their training methods, as much as Yoga, or are simply not appropriate, since they can for example exhaust the joints, or simply because the place and application of the exercise method does not offer enough motivation for the average individual. | |
| The ForrestYoga® System has studied in depth the individual and has managed to move beyond the practices of traditional Yoga, being able to offer a revolutionary Yoga System, that has proven to actually be able to address EVERYBODY and especially the modern man/woman of the so called Western World, who's majority had turned away from the beneficial effects of Yoga simply because it was always considered to be a method inspired from cultures with different mentality. | |
