There will be a shared practice: Involve your partner, friend, son, husband … Acrobatic Yoga, Trekking Yoga, Laughter Yoga, Yoga Nidra, or for those seeking a more intimate moment, the teaching of Thich Nhat Hanh. In pairs is better !

Body Heat? It happens in Bikram Yoga: the style of the moment, still little known in Italy but widespread abroad, it is practiced in a heated room to melt the muscles and feel fluid. Isabella Zuanelli Ponso, certified Bikram teacher, introduces the basics of Hot Yoga.

Are you sensitive? Yoga Journal and Sorgenia have prepared a spot for you to learn Sensitive Yoga, a sequence of positions that call for energy production, designed by the teacher Francesca Hezi.
