Daily Yoga with Claire
A workshop with Claire Cunningham in cooperation with ImPulsTanz - Vienna International Dance Festival
Daily Yoga with Claire
The yoga classes will include steady postures (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama) and relaxation (savasana). Claire encourages a mindful approach, and the flow of the class will leave you feeling both energized and relaxed. Claire: “I personally love the balance of strength and length that yoga provides the physical body. Also the emphasis on a breath-lead practice, which brings a sense of grounding and spaciousness. It shifts the energy and clears blockages both mentally and physically. Yoga provides a quiet space for feeling or ‘tuning in’ to what is happening on each particular day.“ As a former dancer, Claire brings detailed body and movement intelligence into her teaching practice.
Shared Moments
In their shared moments that are open to all participants (yoga and/or cycling), Claire and Carl offer a welcome event, a yoga nidra session and a movie night. Additionally, shared moments will lead us on excursions to water falls and into nearby medieval towns.
Additionally, enjoy walks in the surrounding meadows and forests, or swim in the salt water pool at this beautiful eco-oasis. There will be plenty of time to relax, enjoy quiet reading corners, or a glass of wine under the stars.
Daily Yoga with Claire can be booked together with Guided Cycling with Carl.
