Yoga classes are held in the open air at the campsite. These are announced at the old tanya and you can sign up per session, for a small fee.
Materials are provided and you do not need to have any yoga experience! If you do, prepare yourself for an in-depth experience doing yoga in the middle of nature.
I (Alies) have over 12 years of experience as a yoga teacher and mindfulness trainer and I would like to let you feel for yourself what yoga does to you: moving with attention, feeling your body, dealing with tension and discomfort – that can also appear in your thoughts and feelings – and ultimately let the relaxation and silence be there!
Move slowly and breath…
Yoga comes in many forms, from very meditative to very sporty. In all forms, moving with attention and respect for your own body comes first and breathing is an important instrument for feeling conscious and relaxed. That is a extra special experience in the pure open air!
My yoga classes at Oázis Tanya are what you could call “slow flow yoga”. We do various exercises in a nice flow at a quiet pace, that help to make your body strong and flexible and improve your balance and/or they focus on relaxing, so that space is made in the body and you can release a lot of tension!
Sometimes with a little challenge, but always with respect for your body and your limits and where necessary with some humor – I adapt the classes to the participants and therefore everyone is welcome from complete beginners to experienced yoga practitioners.
The lesson always starts with calm, feeling movements and a breathing exercise to make good contact with your body, and ends with a final relaxation, where you lie on your mat in peace and let everything soak in for a while, listening to the sounds of nature.
