What’s your favorite yoga pose and why?
The most favorite yoga asana for me is flow into Flying Pigeon or Eka Pada Galavasana. Well this is evident not an easy pose. Once I understood the roots of this beautiful pose, once I put on practice a considerable amount of openness in the hips, core and upper body strength, as well as a courage to overcome the fear of falling flat on my face, I haven´t quite got it till reaching and experience it over and over again. Create a serie of flows, poses and sequences aim to increase mobility in the hips and glutes, active the shoulders and the core as well as creating heart, energy and concentration.
It makes more beautiful this asana because is just a combination of Pigeon pose and Chaturanga Dandasana, others two favorite poses.
What is your favorite quote?
More than a quote is an extract of Patanjali philosophy. “Yoga is the neutralization of ego-directed feelings, because once these become stilled, the yogi realizes that he is, and that he has always been, one with the Infinite-that his awareness of this reality was limited only by his infautation with limitation”.
What inspires you in your practice?
My daily inspiration for my personal practice is the mantra that I decided to repeat inside of me every day: Be present, be here, embrace every day as it could be your last one. I have been experienced an uncertain moments in my life and have this sort of mantra with me make me feel grounded, on calm, connected with my spirit, my soul, my body and my mind. It turned into my personal mantra.
