PRIMER CURSO DE YOGA AÉREO UNNATA en español!!

Unnata es la palabra en sánscrito para “elevado”, queriendo decir tanto espiritual como físicamente elevado.

Curso dirigido por Montse Lominchar, primera profesora autorizada en formación de Yoga Aéreo Unnata, quién comenzó su práctica de yoga hace 30 años y desde hace 10 años es profesora de yoga. Actualmente dirige el Centro Yogasadhana en Ciudad Real y colabora con Centroterapia en Madrid. Montse se formó como profesora de Unnata Yoga en Nueva York con Michelle Dortignac, fundadora y creadora del Yoga Aéreo Unnata.

Aprenderás a utilizar la hamaca del Yoga Aéreo como herramienta en tus clases de Yoga, integrándola en tu propio estilo de práctica, siendo fiel a la ancestral filosofía del Yoga, evitando el efectismo artificial y conservando esa sensación de relajación, rejuvenecimiento y vitalidad que se obtiene en las auténticas clases de Yoga.

Este curso de formación en español es exclusivo para instructores de Yoga ya certificados (o su equivalente).

El Yoga Aéreo Unnata ha sido nombrado líder en calidad en el recién creado campo de la enseñanza de Yoga “en suspensión”. Te invitamos a unirte a nuestra comunidad pionera de profesores innovadores, divertidos y sinceros.

Fecha: del 29 de junio al 7 de julio de 2012
Precio: 990€
Lugar: Centro Yogasadhana, Ciudad Real – España

This summer, I’ll be traveling to Nantucket, MA for the Nantucket Yoga Festival to teach Unnata Aerial Yoga classes. Not many Yoga festivals have the capability of hanging hammocks, so I’m quite excited for this opportunity. I’ll also be contributing to the performance part of the opening ceremonies. It’s possible to rig any aerial apparatus in the venue, so I’m considering bringing an act that is a little less Yoga, a little more spectacle, just for fun.

Last Fall, I was lucky enough to be a part of a huge photo art project entitled “Yoga In New York.” The photographs are by Artist and Yogi, Wari Ananda from Barcelona, Spain. I had a really good time meeting other NYC Yogis and doing Yoga in the park. You can’t tell from the photos, but it was really cold that day! Check out the stunning photography, and thanks, Wari, for inviting me to join you.

Sacred Sounds is also offering a “Bring a Friend for Free” special through the end of 2011. This is a perfect opportunity to introduce your friends to Unnata Aerial Yoga, or to attend a class yourself, if you have not yet tried it. All you have to do is mention the “Bring a Friend” deal at the front desk when you come:

Please feel free to pass this information on to your friends. We have room for twice as many students as at the Williamsburg location, all without needing to share hammocks. There is room enough for everybody, so don’t wait for the New Year’s resolution rush! Be sure to start taking classes this Fall.

Namaste and Enlighten Up, Everyone!
