Hatha Yoga for groups

Alignment

For practitioners with experience or for people who seek a rigorous and deep approach to the science of yoga. This class is focused on conscious physical actions which can provide proper alignment in Asana. This class opens to subtle corporal reflection, and to the awakening of the mind of the cells.

Personalized Yoga practiced focused on treating injuries or particular physical or psychological conditions. This practice consists mainly in restorative postures supported by Props.

Clowning

The return to innocence.

Clowning is a theatre style which seeks to investigate the original and specific characteristics of the actor in order to develop them and bring them to the stage. It is different from classical theatre, or other theatre styles where the interpreter acquires techniques for the construction of a character, Clowning seeks to de-construct what distances him from himself, to recognize it, to accept it and to be able to play with what he truly is inside.

This is why this practice is not limited to the spectacle, it is a tool for expression, liberation and self-knowledge. It is a path of returning to naivety, innocence, spontaneity and the will to play, which we all have within us.

It is an opportunity to understand that falling is a spring to rise, failure a natural thing, and stupidity a doorway to joy.

Group Clowning Classes

These classes are a playing field to explore other kinds of communication and listening to oneself and to “others”. It is a space-time of enjoyment that is perfect to open from inside outwards and from outside inwards, sharing in empathy.

We approach corporal expression from the sincere relationship with one’s organism; we invite the participants to submerge themselves in imaginary landscapes which overflow with absurdity.

Individual Clowning Therapy

This class offers some tools from the art of clowning to connect with inner nature; to allow one to become empty of majestic adulthood, and find in the bottom of the self the source of joy from which all creation emerges. It is an invitation to remove all the masks that seem to protect us, in order to touch the vulnerability of the child we have inside, and from there open up to the world. A light approach to working on one-self.

THAI Massage

The Thai Massage is a massage technique from Thailand, which integrates principals from Yoga, Shiatsu and meditation. This massage doesn’t use oil for this and it is done wearing clothes. It consists of putting pressure on specific points of the body, and the activation of the meridians. We manipulate the extremities of the body to open space in between the joints and to provide a full body stretch in a passive way.

This Massage allows liberation of spasms and stimulates the immunological, digestive, respiratory and nervous systems.

Contact – Improvisation

It is a technique coming from contemporary dance, born in the US and expanded throughout the whole world. It is a study of corporal weight and its possibility to share it with other dancers. This technique can be approached from somatics, acrobatics, or as performance, depending on the focus that is given. Savitri includes this service as a communication tool for couples, friends or family.
