discover movement, gain strength

What is ViryaLila Yoga?

“Virya” means power, courage, and strength. “Lila” is the “game of the divine”. ViryaLila Yoga is powerful, precise and yet playful yoga, which allows you can discover the variety in movement, gain strength and awaken your hidden potential. It invites you to explore your body and the world around you, creates a sense of achievement and inspires our lives. It teaches us to embrace the challenges fo life with courage, strength, and creativity.

In my lessons you will learn important alignment principles, practice balance and coordination, and train both strength and flexibility alike. We combine classic asana practice with aspects of other schools of movement such as Feldenkrais, functional training, myofascial release, and progressive muscle relaxation. Mantras, mudras and pranayama enrich our practice on another dimension. Much of what we practice on the mat can be transferred to everyday life  not just physically. Come and get inspired!

 

about me

My name is Lena. I am a certified yoga teacher (540h yoga alliance, ZPP accredited). For me, yoga means freeing ourselves from rigid patterns and discovering our hidden potential. No matter whether I practice Hatha, Power Vinyasa Flow, Asthanga, Acro or Yin Yoga: the combination of movement, breathing and philosophy has something magical for me. I am particularly fascinated by the biomechanics of our body and the life-affirming approach of Tantric philosophy.

The most influential teachers on my yoga path include Jordan Bloom, Thomas Bessel, Noah Mazé, Rocky Heron and Michael J. Stewart.
