Rocket Yoga Immersion - to infinity and beyond!

Rocket Yoga - to infinity and beyond

Come join us to discover that there is more than one approach to these dynamic yoga styles. During the weekend, you will discover through the Rocket inspired sequences the fun, inclusive, progressive, and accessible way into the Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga method that the Rocket style provides. Throughout the workshop, you will also learn and practice drills and tips, as well as variations of every posture, so you can pick the ones that suit you best! Our goal is to provide a context for you to explore using the postures to get into the body, instead of using the body to get into a posture. In addition, there will be pranayama (breath work) and guided meditation to help you strengthen the body and mind connection. To make it a well-rounded weekend session, we will end the weekend with some yin yoga and a myofascial release session that will have a profound effect on your overall well-being.

About the teacher

David has been a yoga student since 2002, after he hung up the shoes as a professional contemporary dancer in Portugal. In 2009, already working as a yoga and movement educator, David was introduced to Ashtanga yoga, completing his first yoga teacher training in 2014. Over the years, he continued formal studies in Rocket Yoga, Yin Yoga and Yoga Therapy.

All those years of interdisciplinary approaches to functional movement can be felt during David’s classes, which focus on building a strong body and mind. In his teachings he attempts to integrate his own experience with the yoga tradition, the modern day movement approach and the latest evidence based science, as a way to help each individual reach their own full potential. His classes are challenging, yet lighthearted, with focus on exploration and transformation. David would like to share the same vitality, happiness and passion with his students the same way he has cultivated his own experience every time he practices yoga.

David is an E-RYT 500, YACEP / International Travel Yoga Educator
