SUNDAY JAN 5 / HEART OPENING WORKSHOP / GEMMA DAOU / 10:00 AM > 12:30 PM
This yoga session with Gemma emphasizes a preparation for heart opening postures. Lifting up your energy gradually, while deeply grounding the body through upper back and chest alignment with the lower back is an opportunity to get in touch with your emotions through the breath. This practice is an introduction to what is called Nadi Sodhana in Yoga practice.
It mainly consists of cleansing and balancing the nervous system and brings numerous benefits such as deeper breathing and creating openness towards the inner experience of remembering our natural state of joy.
Gemma is a lebanese Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga practicionner and teacher based in Brussels (confirmed yoga teacher by ABEPY (Association Belge des Enseignants et Pratiquants du Yoga) in Belgium). Her style in Yoga was deeply inspired by the Vinyasa and Jivamukti Yoga School NYC when she had first followed Danielle Abisaab‘s teaching in Beirut.
She now concentrates her studies and PHD research on Yoga and Meditation through philosophy. She continues her yogic path following her teacher Sri Sheshadri in Europe and Mysore, and attending workshops with senior teachers Jean-Claude Garnier and Kristina Karitinou Ireland in Brussels.
