Yoga Summer Sessions in the Park

10273986_696755160362935_8084571993854449612_n

Yes, this was pretty darn cool….i had a photographer call me on Monday asking if i was free to take some pix whilst doing yoga for a story they were running nationwide on the Corriere della Sera newspaper (Italy’s biggest newspaper, page 36).

So on Tuesday another teacher friend, Maria Cristina Scarpa & i met up with the photographer, Duilio Piaggesi, at l’Arco della Pace, in Sempione Park and proceeded to doing a few sun salutes and asanas that we felt would work well and look good….a few days later the journalist, Stefano Landi, called me and asked me a few questions about teaching yoga in the park.

And the pic above is the end result.

So yes, with the arrival of Summer, longer & warmer days, the yoga summer sessions will soon be back! This will be the 3rd year i will be teaching yoga in different parks around Milan, making the most of the green spaces, trying to escape the urban setting and reconnecting with nature and ourselves 🙂

Stay tuned for more info on start dates, times and locations….all will soon be revealed! 🙂

Enjoy!

Eddie Stern yoga therapy exercises

Here are some of the exercises Eddie showed us during the Yoga Therapy sessions we had with him during the workshop. Eddie created these pix in response to an article published in the Times that was written by a certain Mr. William Broad, http://ayny.org/response-william-broad-fai.html
I wanted to show you guys these because we did them too! It’s much better showing you the pix and explanations from Eddie, then just writing up the exercises might make more sense too!
These exercises are for FAI – Femoroacetabular Impingement (click here to find out more about what this is): these exercises combine lengthening of the hamstrings with strengthening of the quadriceps and the external and internal rotators, which will help in stabilising the hip. But we did them to alleviate lower back pain and core strengthening exercises to strengthen the core which will help balance everything out.
Thanks Eddie! 🙂
