• Unique opportunity to study in-person with David Meloni •
3-Day In-Person Mini-Immersion
"Pillars of Practice • Modifications & Variations in Asana as Key Components to Svadhyaya (self study)"
February 7th - 9th, 2025 in Florence, Italy
• In-Person and in English & Italiano • Space is limited •
BKS Iyengar embodied practice. At the heart of what he taught, Guruji encourage us to explore in our practice and through our practice to develop the awareness to realize Yoga. However, how we practice and the quality of practice determines its effectiveness and whether we can be touched by the transformative characteristics inherent in Yoga itself.
Be prepared to be physically and mentally immersed through David Meloni’s accessible approach through hands-on adjustments during Asana and Pranayama as he transmits the essence of Guruji, BKS Iyengar’s, teachings.
Join us this February in Florence for a 3-day in-person only mini-immersion to further unlock your path of profound and dedicated practice through Svadhyaya (self-study) as David Meloni rigorously learned from Guruji.
“David's teaching is superb - his knowledge and understanding, his deep concentration and focus, his attention and care for his students, and his profound love for Iyengar Yoga and its tradition all make his lessons and workshops extraordinarily valuable.
David is a teacher in the truest sense of the word. His teaching comes not from a place of power or ego, but from a place of authority grounded in many years of dedicated practice and study.
One of the incredibly important effects of this, I found, was that I could simply surrender to David's authority and let go of the grip on my ego ... in this way real learning takes place. A truly wonderful experience!”
