Yoga Lifestyle

Are you interested in exploring yoga and mindfulness? Then Yoga Lifestyle is for you.

The yoga craze has really hit Denmark and is has become a very popular form of training or side activity to other forms of sports. In this profile subject there will be great focus on the physical positions, alignment and deep stretches, but we will also immerse ourselves in the yoga tradition and attain a glimpse in what e.g. mudra, pranayama and chakras mean. Yoga is a very broad discipline, and despite focusing on Hatha and Vinyasa, we will incorporate elements from Yin, restorative and Asthanga yoga - You might even learn how to do a headstand!

Our focus in P1 will be to concentrate on ourselves and to create good routines you can use in your own life. In P3 we focus more on presence and caring for our surroundings, which is why we help remove garbage from the beautiful Sicilian beaches near Pozzallo.

Oftentimes it is hard for us to look inwards and slow down our tempo in a hectic everyday, but yoga has a positive influence on our life and can help us live in the present. Through meditation, breathing techniques and physically challenging positions, you will experience greater mental energy, a stronger body in better balance, less stress and greater presence.

"The present moment is filled with joy and happiness. If you are attentive, you will see it." Thich Nhat Hahn (1992)

The trip

The profile travel is a trip to a yoga retreat or something similar, where we can immerse ourselves in the world of yoga. Because of the current Covid-19 situation, we are not yet sure of the travel destination. However, this profile subject is for everyone - rookie yogis and more experienced practitioners. The most important thing is that you are open-minded, curious and ready to challenge yourself.
