En el estudio de yoga y más allá

Do you feel the need to get away from your daily routine and focus on reconnecting with the yoga practice? Or perhaps you’ve always dreamed of taking your passion further and want to become a yoga teacher.

There’s no denying that 2020 has been a rocky road and the need to turn inward and focus on our own personal goals is now greater than ever.

Without a doubt, 2020 hasn’t been exactly the year we’ve planned for. Through it all, the practice of yoga has helped many around the world to cope with these uncertain times.

Home to some of the world’s oldest cultures, beautiful natural landscapes, delicious foods, colorful markets, and friendly people, Asia & Oceania tick all the boxes for outstanding travel destinations. 

When the heat and excitement of summer winds down, the crisp morning air, colorful leaves, and pumpkin-spice spread their nostalgic feeling over our lives.

Rolling hills, endless golden beaches, scrumptious cuisine, and astonishing historical sites have always attracted visitors to Italy, one of the most beautiful Southern European countries.

Becoming a yoga instructor isn’t about being the most flexible in your class or doing the most difficult inversions. There’s no required level, but there is a required power of will. The same power of will by which plenty of yoga gurus were driven when they brought the practice to the USA.

Thinking of getting a certification as an instructor? If you’re going to learn how to teach yoga, why settle for any other place to do so than the yoga capital of the world? 

If you want to visit a place where nature and serenity work hand in hand, away from the bustling sound of any busy city, then Mount Koya is definitely the place for you.

Traveling can present a whole host of amazing opportunities for yoga students. If you combine it with your practice on the mat, it can provide you with experiences that you just can’t get in a yoga studio.

Something magical happens when you chose to leave your day-to-day life behind and immerse yourself in an intensive yoga training in a foreign country. Not only is a space for deep transformation, but you have the added benefit of exploring another culture while exploring the depths of the self.

Yoga’s health benefits are not just myths. Several scientific studies confirmed how beneficial yoga could be to anyone’s health. Yoga can help you get rid of back pains, ease anxiety and tension, and even increase your lifespan. And the best news yet is this – you can do yoga anywhere you are.  If it’s too inconvenient, you can even do the poses without a mat!

I am never a fan of long-haul travels particularly because it leaves my body aching and my hair in a mess. After years of flying, I’ve come to discover that a short yoga stretch just before takeoff is what I need to counter the effects of being stuck the seat on the plane for hours on end.
