IYENGAR® YOGA
Every week at Torri Superiore small groups of adults or children meet to practice IYENGAR® YOGA, in classes lead by Valentina Tafuto who teaches with the Introductory Level II, which are also open to our guests. The literal translation of Yoga is ‘union, bonding’, a term that perfectly synthesizes the aim of this ancient oriental tradition to reach the complete integration of body, mind and spirit. The IYENGAR® YOGA tools are mainly the asanas (positions) and pranayama, the rhythmic control of breathing.
Asanas aim firstly at re-aligning the spinal column. As a consequence inner organs are strengthened, while the body’s immune system and powers of concentration improve.
Pranayama maintains a pure blood flow and tones the nerves, brain and heart. Yoga is rooted in social and personal ethics, and through the attention on body, breath and mind it leads to the awareness of a pure and free Self, liberated from duality.
The four weekly IYENGAR® YOGA classes at Torri are conducted by Valentina Tafuto from the Light on Yoga Italia Association (www.iyengaryoga.it) that unites all teachers certified by Master B.K.S. IYENGAR.
Individual lessons of 90 minutes are available; the lesson is taught in Italian.
