As BKS Iyengar has stated, ''Health is the state of complete harmony of the body, mind, and spirit''.
Yoga Skyros is different because Dietmar and Carmen teach all courses by themselves, which shows the amplitude of their knowledge, love, persistence, and inner power. Their approach to teaching and learning is ''baby steps." They are here to support you along the way, with patience and love, and as Carmen says, ''The body will always adapt to the demand we put on it'', so there is no need to rush or doubt the process."
Additionally, because quality is above quantity and each class has a maximum of 10–12 students, each individual gets to develop a traditional and authentic ''Master'' to Student Relationship, where they are connected for life no matter how many miles apart. Yoga Skyros Academy strives to share the ancient knowledge, practices, and their light within the modern world. We can all heal ourselves and one another. Join us and feel the difference for yourself.
The academy is based on the concept of small classes with a maximum of 6 students, high-quality teaching, better learning and understanding, and better connection to your consciousness and inner peace.
SUP yoga unites the sport of stand-up paddle boarding, which originated in Hawaii in the 1940s, with the ancient practice of yoga, which has its roots in India. In the short time SUP yoga has existed, it has grown to include devotees worldwide.
The practice of SUP boarding and yoga requires you to pay attention to your breath as well as your body movements. This is needed for you to keep a well-balanced posture while afloat on water. Focusing on your overall breathing and balance is indeed a step closer to developing a deeper level of mindfulness or self-awareness.
The pace of this type of yoga requires you to slow down. Slowing down allows you to focus on your movements and change your poses as smoothly as possible. As you slow down on your movement, it also allows you to focus more on your breathing and increase your control over it.
Although SUP Boarding and Yoga do not require too much physical activity, it is still proven to exercise your body. The poses that you exert generally firm up core areas such as the arms, shoulders, legs, knees, and quadriceps.
Going through the summer heat instead of lying flat on your yoga mat inside a room creates a lot of difference. It gives you a more sense of being one with the outdoors. You can easily cool down simply by having an unlimited supply of water beneath you.
Aside from the calming feeling of being afloat on water, having a beautiful landscape as your view is definitely priceless. You even have accessible fresh air around you. How can you make your yoga experience better? Well, try stand-up paddle boarding and yoga to see!

Furthermore, the same is done to increase your mobility and flexibility. It requires your different muscles to strengthen with a wide range of poses. Those who frequently practice yoga are known to have excellent balancing and flexibility skills.
