« Svadhyaya» est le terme sanskrit qui désigne “l’étude de soi”. 

Il se réfère à la fois à l’étude des textes fondateurs du Yoga, de la philosophie du Yoga, et à l’effort que nous déployons vers la connaissance de soi. Une invitation à observer ce qui se passe dans notre corps physique pendant la pratique, comment le mental réagit, les pensées qui affluent pendant la pratique posturale et la méditation. Quelles sont les pensées récurrentes et que peuvent-elles révéler sur nous et sur le chemin à suivre pour vivre mieux?

Nous avons pensé cette immersion comme un voyage d’approfondissement de votre pratique du Yoga, sur le plan anatomique, physique, philosophique et émotionnel. Dans le contexte actuel, les outils qui nous permettent recentrage et connaissance de soi sont plus que jamais utiles pour garder une “distance” entre notre nature profonde et les événements extérieurs qui tendent à nous éloigner d’elle…

In this training, we will learn the foundations of Thai massage and the skills to give a lovely full body treatment to begin your practice. Beyond this, we will develop our quality of touch, connecting to our heart and compassion, and learning how to follow our intuition. This is more than just a bodywork course, as Thai massage is a powerful tool of transformation and self-healing.

This course is a Level 2 of 2 to complete a basic beginner Thai massage course following the tradition of Asokananda and the Sunshine Network. Some previous Thai massage training or other bodywork is required.

This course is a great foundation to begin the practice of giving massage. It’s in the practice where the real learning then happens. As a spiritual practice, you will also receive a modality from which you can explore your own self more deeply through the use of touch, connection with others and understanding how to feel energy.

Very special time at Agora!

We are very happy to welcome Chuck Miller for his first time teaching in Lisbon.  I had the chance to study with Chuck in Paris. It transformed my perception of the practice, deepening my awareness of the breath and of the unconscious patterns of our body and mind. Don’t miss the opportunity to join this 4-day immersion into breath and movement with one of the most senior Ashtanga teachers. It is a blessing to study with Chuck.
