LARUGA GLASER
has been practicing Ashtanga Yoga continuously for over 23 years. She has made more than 14 trips to Mysore, India, at KPJAYI where the late Sri K. Pattabhi Jois taught, and where now teaches his grandson, R. Sharath Jois. Her mission is to continue learning and growing both as a student and as a teacher.
She is one of the few teachers in the world, who has been awarded the primacy of the certification for teaching the Advanced B series, a very rare privilege, which requires years and years of hard and humble work, as well as an immense dedication to the practice also as a lifestyle.
Her profound belief in what she does and teaches, is breathed and felt so strongly, during her classes, that the student is inspired, motivated and intrigued to explore and challenge all the transformative power that the practice offers.
As if to say, a real school of life.
DAVID FREDRIKSSON
starts practicing Ashtanga yoga in 2006, in 2008 he embarks on his first trip to Mysore, India, practicing with Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and R. Sharath Jois. David is a person of great depth and sensitivity, perhaps, also thanks to his inner research work, that dates back to his adolescence.
His dedication to ashtanga practice led him, in January 2011, to receive the Level 1 Teaching Authorization from his teacher R. Sharath Jois.
David is particularly gifted and expert at interacting and motivating absolute beginners, those who have never even done yoga. He often assists Laruga in her retreats and workshops around the world.
The plan of Ashtanga Yoga Retreat with David and Laruga
A Mysore retreat with Laruga and David is simply a great experience!
This 10 days retreat will give the participants, the opportunity to improve their level of practice and also the advantage of spending time enjoying the healing power of the sea, in one of the most beautiful and second biggest Island of the Mediterranean.
