Vanda Scaravelli was an Italian woman that found her love of yoga later in life. She had yoga teacher training by Desikachar and BKS Iyengar, and from that point she developed a gentler, more feminine style of yoga that was designed to move with the natural body in relation to gravity.

Scaravelli yoga teachings have a holistic approach and encourage inner movement that when you combine it with pranayama and meditation you naturally unfold outward. When you can let go of the weight of your body it can fall to the ground and allow the spine to be lighter and unfold. Then your legs can connect to the earth and securing you in place.

Scaravelli class sessions tend to be small and friendly in nature, which provides a relaxing atmosphere that will allow you to progress comfortably and develop your home practice. This yoga teacher training will bring new horizons to you. (more…)
