Sivananda Yoga Variations / intense bodywork with Claudia
Saturday 25 march 14:00 - 17:00
This workshop 14:00-17:00 is taught in English.
Based on the Sivananda-Yoga-Basics-workshop of February 25th, we continue the precise bodywork with more challenging variations while keeping the focus on small details and a mindful awareness. (While the Basics workshop is supportive, it is not a prerequisite for participating and benefiting from this workshop.)
If you love your Sivananda Yoga but would also like to try some new variations f.ex. in the Sun Salutation or out of a headstand or even handstand, this workshop gives you space and guidance. You can even bring your ideas, and we will integrate them into the flow of the class.
By developing an outer stability in Asanas (body)...
We open up for an inner awareness (mind)...
which helps to experience the actual Being in the moment (soul).
There will be time for questions and adapted positions or alternatives.
Trust in basics gives courage to dare the unknown

Style: Sivananda Yoga
Sivananda Yoga is the style of hatha yoga within the lineage of Sivananda Saraswati. It is for the student seeking inner tranquility and centeredness. In a Sivananda class, after warming up the joints, we do the sun salutation, a cardio-vascular exercise, to warm up the whole body and awaken vital energy. This is followed by 12 core postures and their variations to channel and concentrate that vital energy. Between each posture, the student relaxes for a short time which allows for the vital energy to be reabsorbed. After the postural sequence, we practice yogic breathing exercises to tune ourselves inward. This is followed by a long guided relaxation and brief seated meditation. This sequence brings about the overall sense of harmony and well-being one feels after class. Regardless of whether a student comes into class tired or stressed, the balanced nature of the Sivananda sequence renders that student calm and lucid. Go to the Sivananda yoga page.
Teacher: Claudia Schlegel
Claudia started yoga in 1998 while studying physiotherapy and learned how integrating yoga with physiotherapy affected the body much better than physiotherapy alone. She received her yoga teaching certification in 2002 and meditation teaching certification in 2005. Claudia would like to help her students develop a proper sense of their physical body in order for them to access the more subtle inner self. This would enable a greater possibility for spiritual awakening to take place.
