3. Maison du Yoga by Deepti
A graduate of the Santa Cruz Yoga Institute in Bombay, Deepti’s studio introduces you to the benefits of traditional Indian yoga (Hatha Yoga). “It’s a yoga that means yoga of effort and develops spiritual awakening with the Sutras (texts) via static postures “asanas”, breath discipline “pranayama” and meditation “dhyana”. It’s the union of body, mind and soul”, she explains. If you’d like to discover the practice before making a commitment, join us on September 2, 2024 (when the studio reopens) for a trial session at 10 euros!
