My name is Melina I come from Athens-Greece
and this is my story..
Ashtanga Yoga Tutorials
During the last couple of years of COVID-19 seclusion and after the persistent urge from my students, the ideal opportunity finally arose to focus on filming a series of Tutorials dedicated to the Primary Series of the Ashtanga Yoga Practice.The Shala
Ashtanga Yoga Kifisia is a space dedicated to the teaching of the Ashtanga Yoga method, as taught under the lineage of Shri K. Pattabhi Jois and Sharath Jois..
Our Shala is our temple, a place to let go, meditate, re-charge & bloom like early flowers in spring..
Program
Mysore Self Practice is the traditional way in which the Ashtanga practice is taught from teacher to student, in an unbroken lineage from Sri T. Krishnamacharya to now. In a Mysore class every student works to his/her own time & space, according to his/her experience & understanding of the practice.
Ashtanga Yoga is a wholesome & mindful practice like no other..
.
A time to listen, a time to connect, a time to explore, a time to just be..
When you breathe, magic happens..
.
What could be more wholesome than that?

*The magic of the PELVIC FLOOR*
I could talk for ever about the Pelvic Floor, the Perineum, the Vagus Nerve, the Parasympathetic Nervous System, and above all the BREATH, every inhalation, every exhalation, PRANA, APANA, connecting the opposites, connecting the ends, the MULHA Bandha, the Uddiyana Bandha, staying connected, focused, aware & above all making the practice the richest and most precious life ELIXIR..
β’
The only thing you need to do in order to enjoy all the above, is to UNROLL your mat, BREATHE deeply with sound, and MOVE YOUR BODY in coordination..
β’
Every day if possible, as much as possible, make it a habit, and be HAPPY..
β’
At Ashtanga Yoga Kifisia #ashtangayogakifisia we teach Ashtanga yoga only, every single day of the week Monday to Sunday..

OXYTOCIN is the hormone of LOVE..
Itβs generated in the Hypothalamus and is highly present when we are in Love, while by all means itβs the hormone that is produced in the highest ever percentage while giving birth & bringing life in the world.. during the highest and most spiritual act of love, so to speak..β€οΈ
β’
Hormones are produced in the brain, they manifest in the body as expressions and in the mind as thoughts, but at the same time they are transmitted around the person that produces them..
β’
Practicing next to Sofia, overwhelmed by the most powerful & loving hormones, is like a daily multi vitamin injection of pure energy & joy..
β’
Through deep breathing that we all share in the room, energy is transmitted as in a closed circuit..
β’
Have you noticed the energy generated lately?
β’
Thank you so much our beloved Sofia @sofiasfak for sharing your precious elixirs with us..
β’
All our LOVE, and all our warmest thoughts are with you.. less than a week to go..
We Love you!!!
β’
Wish you the best birth in the world!

β’
During the last many years, my attention during practice time is focused primarily on the breath, the exhalation + the pelvic floor.
β’
The breath, CO2 and the biochemical reactions it creates on the nervous system in relation to PRANA & APANA, is a new ERA of understanding..
β’
Combining Medical SCIENCE with YOGA PHILOSOPHY & ANCESTRAL WISDOM is a marriage beyond expectations..
β’
Its MATRIX..
β’
If you are a yoga practitioner I highly recommend reading the book βBreathβ by @mrjamesnestor
