Yoga Style: Vinyasa Flow & Dynamic Hatha based on Ashtanga

Dynamic Hatha Yoga based and influenced on Ashtanga is a vigorous, dynamic form of yoga and it would benefit those seeking strength, flexibility, a clear mind, and an energy boost. This system of breath synchronized with movement (Vinyasa) combines Victorious Breath (Ujjaji Breath) with a set broad range of postures all linked together in a continuous flow- most postures are held for five breaths before moving on. It also uses the energy locks (bandhas) and the eye gazing points (dristis) to focus the mind in a meditative way during the practice.

Vinyasa Flow Yoga is a dynamic flow of yoga marrying movement with breath. Vinyasa Flow – gives a lot more scope for variation and playfulness, it can be very intense and challenging, building heat and getting sweaty, or it can be more of a slower peaceful flow. Either way it is practiced – it has a strong meditative quality.

Yoga Level:

• The yoga retreat is suitable for all levels from beginners to intermediate and advanced. I break down the postures in different stages and adapt and give variations accordingly.
• Mysterious, exotic and romantic. Zanzibar is the evocation of the exotic, an archipelago nestled in then Ocean, 37km offshore from Tanzania. A destination both legendary and mysterious.
• The historic charms of Stone Town, the picture-book, palm-fringed beaches, colourful reefs and the cultural pride that exudes from every beach hut, every temple and every courtyard continues to lure visitors from around the world.
• The haloes of idyllic beach that adorn the island’s coast, and the fragrant spice plantations that blossom in the interior make Zanzibar the ultimaten Ocean destination, the jewel in East Africa’s crown.
