Avvicinarsi alla pratica dell' Atman Yoga per apprendere soluzioni quotidiane per ridurre la negatività generata da sfiducia, dipendenze, rabbia, ambizioni.
Entreremo in sintonia con la naturale dimensione meditativa, che si rivela come uno specchio di chiara presenza mentale. Da questa dimensione di pace nasce una visione positiva della vita.
Dopo gli studi universitari, laurea in indirizzo psicosociale poi formazione superiore in giornalismo, come alunno ho avvicinato un maestro del lignaggio brahmino dal quale ho appreso gli insegnamenti del Raja Yoga. Alla morte del maestro ho iniziato a trasmettere questa conoscenza spirituale, così dal '95 conduco gruppi di auto consapevolezza.

Instructor: Perumal Koshy
Yoga Style: Dynamic Progressive Fusion Yoga (DPF Yoga)
Specialties: Private lessons
Description:

Yoga with Perumal

Perumal's teaching career began under his Kung-Fu master during his teens. After 10 years of martial arts a yoga master approached him. "You will teach yoga", said the master. This began Perumal's path into Yoga. A path which has taken him through U.S., London, Spain, Italy, and India. His experiences in yoga led him to develop Dynamic Progressive Fusion Yoga.

Dynamic - Dynamic implies an active changing style that is vigorous and purposeful. It means to be full of energy and enthusiasm while undergoing change/development.
Progressive - Progressive implies an informal, unrigged method of development. It is a gradual method of development which builds off itself in layers. There is an underlying fixed foundation from which the practice is built on. The practice above the fixed foundation experiences gradual change over time.
Progressive also implies a gradual increase in intensity. DPF yoga starts off light and increases gradually in intensity until an intensity threshold is achieved. Once the intensity threshold is achieved it is then immediately released or maintained according to class requirements.
Fusion - Fusion is the merging or blending of two or more things in the physical and non-physical realms. DPF yoga is the blend of various yoga styles, systems and ideas. It is the conjunction point of these that are searched out, noted and expressed in a synergistic way.

Private Lessons
Professionals with dynamic schedules use private tuition to cope with the fixed timetables of institutions. You experience an in-depth approach. Programs are tailored to your physiological limitations. The pace is geared to you and not a group. Physical aptitudes are discovered and exploited resulting in faster progression.
Experienced with beginner through advanced practitioners of various physical/cultural backgrounds. You receive 2 decades of teaching experience honed in LA, London, and now Milan.

These yoga workshops are suitable for all levels of yoga experience but also a great introduction if you have not done any yoga before. We will build up the poses gradually from standing, sitting, twists to backbends and inversions. Everyone will work within their own capability with attentive instruction and correction. The aim is to distribute weight evenly over your muscles, bones and joints. Once both sides of your body become symmetrical undue stress is removed. These yoga poses affect and penetrate every single cell and tissue, leaving you feeling energized and calm. There will be a relaxation time at the end of the session for your body to absorb all the benefits of your hard work. You will be able to build up a strong foundation for your own practise.

After many years of yoga practice I obtained the Iyengar Yoga teaching diploma in 2001 from the Light on Yoga Association in the UK. In 2002 I moved to Italy, where I have continued my professional training by taking part in numerous teacher-training seminars and workshops. In November and December 2004 I participated in the daily yoga classes of the Iyengar family at the RIMYI in Puna, India.

I supervise all students patiently and accurately, paying particular attention to their abilities and giving each student individual attention and precise instruction. My yoga classes are structured in such a way that the benefits of the practised exercises can be felt after the classes.

Nicole Anami Becker - Nicole emphasizes yoga asana as only one component in the larger framework of Yoga and encourages students to find balance between active and contemplative practices. In her view, an "advanced yogi" is anyone, regardless of physical prowess, who embodies patience, compassion, and loving-kindness. Her classes are full of variety and provide a place to come as you are and enjoy the path to self-discovery. Students enjoy her deep understanding of the body, the care and attention she offers, and her sense of humor. Nicole's main practice is Anusara yoga, but she draws physical and philosophical insights from a variety of yoga styles, Tantric philosophy, Tibetan buddhism, and self-study. She also offers massage and holistic aromatherapy services in the San Francisco Bay Area.
