Tao Yoga (Hatha, Vinyasa Flow, Yin): The yoga practices are based on synchronized breathing through specific postures designed to activate and stretch the meridians, our energy lines, strengthening both body and mind, giving space to body awareness while increasing flexibility and inner peace.
Qi Gong: is a Chinese inner art that combines soft movements with mental concentration and breathing exercises intended to maintain good health and ease the flow of vital energy.
Guided Mindfulness Meditations: through conscious breathing will create the needed space to find inner peace in response to everyday challenges transforming fear, stress, anger, sadness and others into love, compassion and a deep sense of calm and peace.
Ancient Japanese Holistic Massage: Shiatsu
Shiatsu is an East-Asian digital pressure technique that supports and strengthens the body’s natural ability to heal and balance itself.
It works holistically: not just on the physical level, but also psychological, emotional and spiritual by adjusting the body’s physical structure and balancing the energy flow.
It is a deeply relaxing experience able to alleviate back pain, reduce stress and illness, boost the immune system and maintain overall health and wellbeing.
