What shape waits in the seed of you
to grow and spread its branches
against a future sky?"
— David Whyte
Well… my answer is “I don’t know,” and this is the wonder to savour: an unfolding process, that is renewing moment by moment, as nature unfolds in cycles and patterns.
They have to do with how the earth renews itself.
Would you be interested in getting closer and closer in recognizing yours and eventually open up to new or slightly different, useful possibilities of being in touch with yourself and your inner resources?
During our work together, in our experiential classes, I’ll invite you to observe, sense and feel into your own body moving gracefully in different shapes, planes, at different paces from the ground.
Slowing down into delicate, gentle, flowing motions or more dynamic ones — always following what your own perceptions will tell you about.
From where you are, as you are, in relationship with gravity and space.
And most of all, naturally, with your breathing patterns.
Equipped with curiosity, focused and simultaneously open attention, patience, kindness, we’re going to access and take care of our physical structures, our energetical, emotional, mental states to integrate the information that will arise into, hopefully, an overall experience of authentic wellbeing.
A self-renewed embodiment and awareness.
A sense of coming home into yourselves.
I’m guiding classes of shared somatic inquiry, using breath work and forms from classical and contemporary Asana practices, in presence — privately or in small groups — at SomaticaMente Yoga (details on Google Maps), Greece, where I am based.
I am available online too, of course.

My very first Yoga teacher training was in Hatha (2016, AyurYoga Ashram, Mysore, India), with an emphasis on T.K.V. Desikachar's teachings, followed by several others (Ashtanga Vinyasa, Restorative, Nidra, Yin, Vinyasa Flow).
I consider myself a Yoga practitioner who loves to create a safe context to facilitate a process of self-discovery, with solid foundations in traditions such as Thomas Hanna Somatics (Certified in Hanna Somatic Yoga, September 2023), Body-Mind Centering, and the Buteyko Breathing Method (Certified Instructor).
Circling back to where I started from in my personal Yoga journey, I participate in Donna Farhi’s — globally recognised as the Teacher of the Teachers — Art of Teaching training.
This program gifted all the participants not only with insights and content in terms of principles, techniques, and practices but mostly with her Shared Inquiry Approach to teaching.
It gives us the freedom and the joy to create together a safe place to meet and find ourselves with ease, in the ever-changing circumstances of our individual and unique somatic presence. Breath by breath.
In Yoga, feel free to contact me directly to have a taste of my approach toward your Self.
