“Pancamaya” is the ancient Vedic model that presents the human system as composed of five fundamental dimensions that are completely interconnected and interrelated.

In this workshop explore your body, your energy, your intellect, your personality and your emotions as you move through asana, pranayama, meditation & journaling, in order to find access to something deeper and beyond all these dimensions: who you truly are.

​

This workshop counts as 3 contact Continuing Education Hours for teachers certified by Yoga Alliance.

What is Viniyoga?

​

Viniyoga is an authentic and traditional yoga approach, consisting of adapting the tools of yoga to a unique body mind. Going back in generations to Nathamuni, considered the first of Sri Vaishnava āchāryās, in the 7th Century.

 How these teachings came to me?

​This lineage comes from Nathamuni, through many generations, to  T. Krishnamacharya (1888-1989), then to his son T.K.V. Desikachar and others, such as Indra Devi (Federico & Cristina Enriquez, my first teachers in Mexico, were her disciples) then to Gary Kraftsow, then to my peers and me.

Although I did my training with Gary Kraftsow, I love to learn from other teachers in the same lineage, such as Chase Bossart, and I am guided in my personal practice by my mentor, Mary Hilliker.

 

What to Expect?

​

• Mindful breath and movement, linking the movement to the breath in a very conscious and specific way.

• You will receive personal attention, modifications and adaptations will be offered to suit your needs.

• The practice will be mindful with attention to alignment and safety.

• There will be a space for exploration, inquiry & creativity.
