Hi! I am Maria and I love to sing and make to songs :) I am a professional jazz singer with over 13 years of experience and I have been a music teacher for over 8 years in several Universities and Colleges in Colombia. The fundamentals I will teach you are based on: posture, breathing, warm-ups, intuitive singing, a repertoire of your choosing (if you have songs written by yourself we can also work with them!), and ear training (as it is a fundamental skill to develop your musicianship). The course emphasizes the connection and awareness of your body as the root of a healthy vocal practice, including breathing and stretching Yoga exercises. We will advance according to your vocal experience and your learning process as each voice and background is quite different, everyone is welcome!! Come along and start/continue developing the potential of your singing voice!

Yoga & Meditation with an International Certified Teacher!
Yoga is a way of life! All you have to do is set aside some time and leave the rest to me. The process will make you feel better. You will enjoy this journey:) Yoga is much more than what we see on social media ;) Yoga was first referenced in the ancient sacred Rig Ved literature. Yoga = Yuj/Yoke/unite-union-joining (with the divine wisdom of the universe). Yoga, according to yoga sutra philosophy, is concentration. It is a holistic science based on yoga philosophy. It encompasses the whole person: body, mind, intellect, and consciousness. We will concentrate on your personalized approach!! Especially for you! You will have my whole attention. Bring back the ability to breathe, relax, and regenerate while performing some amazing asanas, kriya, mudra, and pranayama. There are many more. After the practice, you will feel revitalized. Consider it. These sensations are positive and will carry over into your daily lives. Take a deep breath and don't think too hard. Schedule a session and enjoy the ride! I teach overseas, in addition to business organizations and individual customers. Aside from Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Himalayan, and Iyengar yoga, I understand you and work accordingly. So, let's see you on the mat. NAMASTE

Learning Yoga lessons with Melanie + Yoga philosophy
Embark on a transformative self-discovery and holistic wellness journey with our invigorating Ashtanga Yoga classes. Rooted in ancient yoga traditions, Ashtanga Yoga offers a dynamic and structured approach to yoga practice, combining breathwork (pranayama), movement (asana), and meditation to cultivate physical strength, mental clarity, and spiritual awareness. Led by experienced and certified yoga instructors, My Ashtanga Yoga classes suit practitioners of all levels, from beginners to advanced students. Each class begins with a grounding meditation and breath awareness, setting the intention for the practice and creating a calm and focused mindset. Students will flow through the primary series of Ashtanga Yoga, known as "Yoga Chikitsa" or Yoga Therapy, through a carefully sequenced series of postures. This systematic sequence of poses is designed to detoxify the body, improve flexibility, and build strength while also promoting internal balance and harmony. The dynamic nature of Ashtanga Yoga encourages practitioners to move with intention and mindfulness, synchronizing breath with movement to create a moving meditation. As students progress through the practice, they will develop greater physical endurance, mental resilience, and emotional stability while deepening their connection to the present moment. In addition to the physical benefits, Ashtanga Yoga offers profound psychological and spiritual benefits, helping students cultivate inner peace, self-awareness, and spiritual awakening. By integrating the principles of yoga philosophy into the practice, students will learn to develop compassion, gratitude, and acceptance both on and off the mat. Whether you want to build strength, increase flexibility, or deepen your spiritual practice, our Ashtanga Yoga classes provide a supportive and nurturing environment for personal growth and transformation. Join us on the mat and experience the transformative power of Ashtanga Yoga in your life. Namaste.

Breath based hatha yoga private online classes in English or Japanese
The father of modern yoga Patanjali mentioned consistency in his biography: Practice should be continuous for a long time with devotion for its firm establishment. You have to practice for a long period of time. Your practice must not be interrupted. You must do it regularly. You must do your practice with love and respect. -Yoga Sutras of Patanjali: 1.14 - Consistency is key to achieving your goals, and cultivating peace within yourself is the first step towards a fulfilling life. Let me guide you on your journey towards inner harmony. -About my class- My yoga class is breath-based hatha yoga. In the class, we use a specific breath technique to heat the body up. It is authentic, yet fun, hatha yoga. We start the basic hatha yoga practice at the beginning and then we will add some breath techniques once your body gets used to it. The goal of yoga is to bring harmony between your body, mind and soul. It helps you to maintain your healthy mind and body. The time of yoga and meditation gives you a chance to observe yourself and to get to know yourself deeply. It is not a competition and is a time just for yourself. My class is private and I can guide you to maintain your body and mind depending on your body condition with a personalised plan such as weekly yoga to establish a healthy routine and tips for your yoga poses. -The contents of my class- Introduction Silent sitting and establish the breath Warm up Sun salutation Practise basic postures Final relaxation (Shavasana)

Pravin
Yoga Class - In Person in Poland - MSc in Yogic Sciences
Yoga is widely known for its Therapeutical benefits , when combined with the right way to do it. Yoga is more about understanding the body type which is been classified under the 3 dosha the VATA, PITTA and KAPHA, and doing the right kind of Kriya, Asana and Pranayama so as to try and balance all the 3 dosha to get a perfect health. Most diseases are psychosomatic and Yoga is the right way to alternatively treat any kind of ailment. Learn and understand the power of your own breath and the effect of conscious breathing on your mental and physical health. Besides the asanas help in strengthening your Musculo-skeletal system, Cardio Vascular system and nervous system. I am a MSc in Yogic Sciences and Human Consciousness. And a professional therapist from India.

Dr Ly Anh
Yoga with Dr Lyanh; meditation and vinyasa yoga with yoga philosophy
Dr Lyanh: I have trained and practiced yoga for over 10 years and worked with several renowned teachers around the world. I teach private, corporate and group classes and am qualified to teach Hatha flow yoga (200RYT), Ashtanga and Hatha (300RYT) and Rocket yoga (50RYT) and Jivamukti yoga (300RYT). I have also completed several workshops in yoga alignment, adjustments, mindfulness and breath work. I generally teach Hatha flow but would be very happy to change my teachings to suit you. I am also a qualified doctor so am confident with how the body works and moves, the anatomy, how to help avoid injury and recovery of the body. I will be also able to spot conditions which may need more medical assistance if needed. There are several benefits of private yoga classes, and these can be in conjunction with group classes or as frequent as you need according to your personal schedule. Private yoga lessons are the ideal opportunity to explore certain yoga postures with correct alignment (without the intimidation or worry in a large group class). There will be time to ask questions or discuss areas of personal interest including anatomy, yogic philosophy, concerns or goals. Example of goals may be core strength, balance, flexibility or mental health relaxation or specific injuries such as low back pain or recovery from a torn ligament. Each class is tailored to fit your individual needs with options to discuss areas of improvement.
