DECADES OF PRACTICE
Our Yoga journey into ease
-
Pre “Yoga fashion” generation…
We began our practice experiencing the thrill of a new adventure. Our main focus was on feeling the body in novel postures.
Annette studied with German Hatha Yoga pioneers and Miguel took an initiation journey to India. We were elated and we loved it.
-
“Modern Yoga times”
We placed emphasis on performing asanas. We studied and followed rules and somehow we lost brilliance in the process.
Yoga became more mechanical and felt less and less satisfying. It seemed that you were not a good Yogi unless you could do acrobatics. It was an era of very expensive Yoga leggings.

Natural Reconnecting
We met the remarkable teacher Donna Fahri and she introduced us to Natural Movement Patterns. These biological, innate configurations are programmed into our bodies before birth and they permit us to move with maximum ease and power.
Our children were born and we watched them gracefully breathe, crawl, sit, stand… we understood that we do not learn to walk. We develop walking. We stopped focusing on performing asanas. The aim shifted to discovering and experiencing. We fell in love with Yoga again.

We are part of a group of professionals and practitioners that explore Yoga in an unconventional way. We have left behind a practice based on rules and fixed repetition. We approach Yoga organically.
We are a growing minority. Our focus on Wellbeing and not into acrobatics or extreme flexibility. It is an exciting time to be a yogi.
