YogaJaya Goes to BOOM Festival In Portugal this summer!

August 3rd to 9th , 2006

Kengo Nomura and Patrick Oancia will be leading daily pranayama and asana classes at the world renown Boom festival.

The Boom Festival is a global art, music and culture gathering held every two years in Portugal's sun-drenched countryside in a stunning outdoor location on the shore of the Lake Idanha-a-Nova.

This course puts emphasis on watching the changes occurring in the body through yoga practice. Students will understand in more detail the profound depth that yoga has and the way it can affect the condition of the mind. When the mind and body are transformed, the true self becomes apparent. This is a continuation of the first Transformation workshop where the emphasis was on the physical transformation.

This course will break down and use elements of the Ashtnaga vinyasa first series to introduce the second series in a safe and fun way. Natalia welcomes yoga practitioners of all levels to this workshop. She emphasizes that everyone will benefit from her fun and light hearted approach and people will leave with a deeper understanding of how to practice according to individual ability!

The detail in this workshop will be of interest to yoga teachers, and experienced practitioners.
Attendants will benefit from a deeper understanding of creative vinyasa sequencing based on practical theory, anatomy and the relationship to alignment dynamics.
