    HATHA YOGA/ASHTANGA YOGA/YOGA NIDRA/Meditations. Improve your physical and mental health with the best coach in Ukraine!
    Hey, I'm manager of yoga instructor Diana. She's from Ukraine, so I'll help with translations and communication. Hatha yoga - Yoga helps us to strengthen the body from the outside and inside. It helps us to improve our inner state and find balance. It is an opportunity to organize thoughts and focus on the here and now. In addition, yoga strengthens the body and improves mood. It has a positive effect on the flexibility and balance of our body. What are the benefits of this practice? First of all, it helps to strengthen the human body, build endurance and willpower. This yoga helps to relax and improves the ability to cope with stress. It has a positive effect on blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Due to the diversity of this practice, it improves muscle flexibility. Also, this practice fills the body with energy, boosts immunity and improves your posture. This practice is suitable for both women and men of all ages. The practice is a bit more complicated than hatha yoga, but it is also suitable for beginners. It is possible to move further in terms of complexity, using more dynamics and increasing the complexity of asanas. Further complication is focused on the use of asanas with deflections and inverted positions. Also, you can smoothly move into Ashtanga yoga or dynamic yoga. Diana has three years of experience teaching modern dance and yoga individually. She has more than 5 years of teaching experience in groups and dozens of satisfied students. Therefore, she will definitely provide everyone with an individual approach, find the right pace and the necessary asanas. If you have more questions, don't hesitate to text me <3 Let's change our lives today, not every Monday, right?)

    Yin yoga détente méditation relaxation anxiété stress
    Cours de Yin Yoga Le Yin Yoga est une pratique douce et méditative qui permet de relâcher profondément les tensions physiques et mentales. Contrairement aux formes dynamiques de yoga, le Yin Yoga se concentre sur des postures tenues pendant plusieurs minutes, ce qui permet d’étirer les tissus conjonctifs profonds (ligaments, tendons, fascias) et de favoriser la circulation de l’énergie dans le corps. Description du cours : • Postures passives : Les postures sont principalement au sol et tenues entre 3 et 5 minutes, ce qui permet d’accéder à un étirement profond des muscles et des articulations. • Respiration consciente : Pendant les postures, nous nous concentrons sur une respiration lente et profonde, favorisant la détente et la pleine conscience. • Relaxation et méditation : Chaque séance est accompagnée de moments de méditation pour apaiser l’esprit, ainsi que d’une relaxation finale pour intégrer pleinement les bienfaits de la pratique. Le Yin Yoga est idéal pour tous les niveaux, que vous soyez débutant ou pratiquant avancé. Il vous aide à cultiver la patience, à réduire le stress et à restaurer l’équilibre physique et mental. Rejoignez-moi pour une séance de Yin Yoga et offrez-vous un moment de calme et de bien-être profond.

    Science , Chemistry, Biology ,Public Health and Health Basics
    Once upon a time, I found science, math and health courses a bit tricky, just like you might. But guess what? I didn't let that stop me. Instead, I turned the tough parts into stepping stones for success. I figured out a way to understand science and math by breaking them into smaller, easier parts. It wasn't always easy, but I didn't give up. Those challenges became the basis for my journey to success. Now, imagine this: I'm not just a tutor; I'm someone who conquered the subjects that once seemed really hard. Science, math, and health-related courses became my friends in life, leading me to a place where I want to help you succeed. I know what it's like, and I know we can do this together. Let's make your learning journey a story of success

    Yoga & Meditation with an International Certified Teacher!
    Yoga is a way of life! All you have to do is set aside some time and leave the rest to me. The process will make you feel better. You will enjoy this journey:) Yoga is much more than what we see on social media ;) Yoga was first referenced in the ancient sacred Rig Ved literature. Yoga = Yuj/Yoke/unite-union-joining (with the divine wisdom of the universe). Yoga, according to yoga sutra philosophy, is concentration. It is a holistic science based on yoga philosophy. It encompasses the whole person: body, mind, intellect, and consciousness. We will concentrate on your personalized approach!! Especially for you! You will have my whole attention. Bring back the ability to breathe, relax, and regenerate while performing some amazing asanas, kriya, mudra, and pranayama. There are many more. After the practice, you will feel revitalized. Consider it. These sensations are positive and will carry over into your daily lives. Take a deep breath and don't think too hard. Schedule a session and enjoy the ride! I teach overseas, in addition to business organizations and individual customers. Aside from Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Himalayan, and Iyengar yoga, I understand you and work accordingly. So, let's see you on the mat. NAMASTE

    200 Hour Multistyle Yoga Teacher and 50 Hour FlyHigh Yoga Teacher / Barre and Pilates instructor
    Yoga is an amazing tool I discovered more than10 years ago. With the help of yoga you will be able to release tensions and emotions that you have been carrying around with you for years. Subsequently, you will make space for new things to unfold in your body and Life! Don’t watch the process happen on other people but start today. I will guide you with body, mind and spirit into this practice with a lot of asanas. Some women will discover they can leave the medical pill box aside for relieving period cramps for example. Many claim to have found a solution for their anxiety, insomnia or depression. A mindful practice comes from your own input. As a 200 Hour yoga Teacher and 50 hour FlyHighYoga teacher I will be your guide and coach to embark on your journey with a variety of purposes - be it weight loss, toning, relieving stress, controlling emotions, going through a difficult phase in life, curing pain and symptoms, staying in shape, improving flexibility or practicing to become a professional.We will do different asanas in conjunction with the phases of the moon. Additionally, I work with breathing - the power of breathing is an add-on to your yoga practice. With the control of your breath you can actually turn off the mind when it’s spinning - this will give you clarity. Nonetheless, it’s a very powerful way to cleanse your airways and lungs. The lungs fight pathogens on a daily basis - but have you ever wondered when you actually cleanse them ? I am an experienced and certified teacher with over 150 hours in teaching in studios and University facilities. I can teach one on one classes but also groups up to 50 people. My practice is dedicated and adapted to my students. I focus on getting the best out of everyone, mostly having fun and feeling great during and after class. Are you ready for this journey ? (Beginner, intermediate or advanced welcome) Pilates, Barre and other classes available with me on demand. I have recently graduated with a Barre foundations diploma, provided by the MethodBarre. Barre a very popular sports enables you to build strength and elongate your muscles. As an ancient dancer (Jazz and Ballet) at the Conservatoire de la Musique du Luxembourg, I have strong ballet foundations. However, my barre practice merges fitness and ballet. Yogi’s and anyone can benefit from Barre classes. You can book me for retreats, private (luxury) trips on demand as your coach/ instructor. Finally, I have a nutrition diploma by the Univeristy of Groningen, where I am also currently being trained to become an MD. My nutrition diploma is an advantage to you as a coach- I can guide you in injury recovery, detox and assist you with certain medical conditions such as IBS or other gut diseases in the autoimmune spectrum.
