Sattva Yoga Portugal offers classes for seniors at Casa Novo Bowing in Odemira.
This is a safe space and time for those who need to practice at a gentle pace; the practice can be done while seated.
Based on the Lriya Kundalini Yoga tradition of the Himalayas, in addition to physical postures—with options tailored to each person’s needs—this practice places great emphasis on Pranayama and Kriyas (breathing exercises and techniques that combine repetitive movements with breath and mantras). In some classes, time will also be dedicated to sound therapy, using various musical instruments (Tibetan singing bowls, gongs, flutes, etc.), whose vibrations promote immediate relaxation, both physical and mental. Some classes will be gentler and more meditative, while others will be more energetic, with opportunities for group activities and even dance.
Each class is a unique experience. The goal is always the same: to promote physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
