Release & Renew: A New Year's Day Flow
Join Jenny & Megan for a special two-hour Vin-Yin class to start the New Year with intention and community!
Step into the New Year with presence and intention. Join us from 2-4 PM on New Year's Day to release and renew.
After a grounding intention-setting meditation, Jenny will guide you through a spicy Vinyasa flow to stoke your inner fire, cultivate tapas and release any stagnant energy in the body. You'll tap into your inner strength and inspiration, flowing with grace through a dynamic flow filled with thoughtfully-crafted sequences and creative transitions. By fueling agni, our inner fire, we'll clear out the old and create space for the new.
In the second half of the session we'll downshift, moving from strength to softness as we transition into this new space with a juicy Yin sequence. Root down with a solid foundation so that you can expand into the limitless possibilities of the New Year. You'll be left feeling balanced and renewed as you step into 2025.
To close off this special practice, we'll enjoy some light snacks as we toast to the New Year ahead, one filled with community and a renewed commitment to your wellbeing.

About Elise:
Elise’s journey into sound healing began as a quest for inner peace and self-discovery. After completing her yoga teacher training in Portugal, she continued her personal development through yoga immersions and ultimately found her way to Yin yoga, gongs, and crystal bowls. These practices gave her a deep connection to her voice and a desire to share inner peace with others—especially those in the corporate world, where she had witnessed the toll of stress and burnout.
Elise spent a transformative year living in the heart of Rome’s historical center. While the experience was enriching, the constant hustle and bustle of the city became overwhelming. Yoga became her refuge, offering moments of quiet and renewal that fueled her ability to pursue her goals and release what no longer served her.
Trained by renowned teachers such as Doris from the Lightning Experience, Elise has crafted a unique approach to sound healing that blends intuition with elements of breathwork, body awareness, and mindfulness. Her sessions adapt to the needs of each group, using sound as a powerful tool to help participants relax, gain insight, and elevate their personal energy. Elise’s varied background in high-pressure industries enables her to offer relatable, practical tools for navigating stress and achieving balance, making her teachings accessible to a wide range of individuals.

The Sound Healing Experience
Join Simone Migliaccio for inner healing through sound.
A sensory journey guided by mystical sounds and chants, an inner hug into deep relaxation, love, and self-discovery. The Sound Healing experience is an opportunity to renew energies and connect with the loving awareness of our being. A magical way to understand ourselves beyond personal suffering.
What to expect:
The first part of the event is dedicated to a brief dharma talk, a guided reflection to enter the meditative state, where thoughts and sensations in the present moment are explored. Then participants are guided towards the release of bodily and mental control. The instruments used include gongs, koshi chimes, Tibetan singing bowls, drums, Native American flute, crystal bowls, and live synths. Additionally, the chanting of Tibetan and Hindu mantras encourages deep introspection, detachment from the ego, and direct connection with our "inner child." Emotional healing is supported, promoting the release of thoughts no longer useful to our personal growth.
About Simone:
Simone’s journey has been filled with various notes and rhythms, traversing the world while discovering the interconnectedness of all things. He resided in London for nearly 10 years, exploring diverse paths, delving into music production, and working as a freelance photographer. In 2018, the practice of yoga opened the door to the pursuit of inner peace. Guided by inspiring teachers, he explored Ashtanga, Hatha, Kundalini, and the Bhakti way of living.
In 2022, Simone and his partner followed their hearts on a six-month journey to Bali, aiming to deepen their practice. Following profound shamanic experiences, his understanding of life reached unimaginable depths, drawing him closer to Himalayan singing bowls. In that realm of inner awareness, he dedicated several hours a day to transcendental meditation and yoga, immersing himself in influential literature and the wisdom of Ram Dass, Thich Nhat Hanh, and Alan Watts. To establish a strong foundation, he attended Sound Healing workshops and an advanced course at The Himalayan Academy of Sound Healing, nurturing his growth in knowledge and love. After six transformative months, he returned to Italy, inspired to share the beauty of his journey. In September 2023, Simone and his partner inaugurated a yoga studio nestled in the Etruscan hills of Cerveteri. There, he offers sound baths, one-to-one healing sessions, and mindfulness classes. Today, he continues navigating this perpetual learning process with patience and gratitude. As he persists on this path, he remains open to connecting with fellow yogis for new experiences, collectively deepening the practice of love and compassion.

Experience Bliss: A Yoga Nidra Journey
Join Rachel Zitin on a yoga nidra journey to experience bliss!
A 75-minute experience designed to restore, nourish, and support your entire being: mind, body, and soul. We’ll begin with 25 minutes of guided breathwork and gentle yoga poses that encourage you to arrive fully into your present experience. Connect to yourself deeply through stretching while actively moving stagnant energy out of your body. Following the active part of our practice, you will be guided through a deeply restful Yoga Nidra practice. It is said that 30 minutes of Nidra is the equivalent of 4 hours of sleep for your brain. This “nap-like” practice will bring you to a meditative state where you can restore, reset, and heal.
About Rachel:
Rachel began her yoga practice in 2011 to recover from an injury. Her deep journey into yoga began right away, as she realized the benefits that the practice has both on and off the mat. Her interest in the mind-body connection continued as she became a dedicated yoga student, following and learning from different physical yoga styles (Bikram, Hatha and Vinyasa). She decided to deepen her personal practice in January 2018 and completed a 200-hour teacher training with Zuna Yoga. Through her training she was able to deepen her meditation practice and connect to the more subtle aspects of yoga. She was also able to connect to joy and exuberance inside which inspired her to teach others. Her background as a tour guide ties in perfectly with her teaching style. She wants students to feel comfortable yet challenged, nourished yet inspired to go deeper. Her focus is on gently aligning breath with movement and helping students find the space where they can flow, trust themselves and follow their own inner guidance.

Secrets of the Yoga Masters
Come join Jeff “KD” Meyers MD LAc and explore the Secrets of the Yoga Masters!
What is a yoga “Master” and what does it really take to be a yoga “Master?”. The secret to being a yoga master is not about just practicing postures, or doing breathing exercises, or even meditating. To be a yoga “Master” is to be a “Master of Discernment” through being a “Master of the Senses.”
In these classes, we’ll connect with the inner essence of yoga and explore the limbs of yoga—including asana, breathwork, language, and meditation—with a focus on expanding discernment to bring greater authenticity, harmony, self-discovery, and community that will take our practice and teaching to the next level.
This immersive experience invites you to go deep into the Heart of yoga and explore “hidden” practices of yoga’s masters and experience real “secrets” that are rarely taught that offer a way of practicing and teaching yoga that will keep you at the edge of your growth all the time.
Come join “KD” on an adventure exploring yoga “Mastery,” and learn and experience real “Secrets of the Yoga Masters” that can totally change your Yoga, your spiritual practice, and your life.
In this workshop, you will:
•Explore the Heart of Yoga: Explore profound teachings that are not often talked about that have guided yoga masters for millennia so you can uncover the subtle principles that underpin a truly authentic practice.
•Learn “Master”-ful Techniques: Learn ways to “practice” the limbs of yoga so you can embody the full depth of yogic knowledge and receive personalized guidance to integrate these practices into your own journey.
•Experience Inner Transformation: Relax into mindfulness/meditation practices that connect us to the place where meditation is always happening, and unlock new dimensions of self-awareness and personal growth.
•Harmonize Body and Mind: Learn ways of mastering embodiment that bring “natural alignment” and balance—both physically and spiritually—to yoga practice and life.
•Connect with Community: Be part of a supportive space that fosters shared learning and growth, and build connections with fellow yogis who are equally passionate about exploring the deeper aspects of yoga.
Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or teacher, or new to practice, “Secrets of the Yoga Masters” offers a unique opportunity to dive into the hidden dimensions of yoga to deepen your understanding and enhance your practice while nurturing your personal journey with respect and reverence for the rich heritage of yoga.

Jivamukti XL: Flowing Between Strength & Softness
Join Claudia Schettini in Jivamukti Yoga workshop dedicated to flowing between strength and softness!
From the Sanskrit words Jiva, meaning individual soul and Mukti, liberation, Jivamukti Yoga is a physical, ethical, and spiritual practice, combining a vigorous Vinyasa-based asana practice with five central tenets: Ahimsa (non-violence); Bhakti (devotion); Nada (sound); Dhyana (meditation); Shastra (ancient scriptures). It was co-founded in NYC in 1984 by Sharon Gannon and David Life and since then has been in continuous expansion all over the world. Jivamukti Yoga is a “path to enlightenment through compassion for all the beings” that strongly supports social activism.
In Yoga Sutra 1.12, Master Patanjali states “abhyāsa-vairāgya-ābhyāṁ tan-nirodhaḥ”. Through a consistent practice and non-attachment, the yogi can attain control over the restless mind.
As for everything in life, on the mat and especially off the mat, we have to find a balance between strength and softness, between effort and gracefulness.
In this workshop we will delve deeper into the Jivamukti Method through a vigorous yet graceful asana practice, supported by chanting mantra with the harmonium, breath awareness, alignment exploration, hands-on assistance, relaxation and meditation. Whether you’re a beginner, deciphering the difference between vrksasana (tree) and sirshasana (headstand) or an advanced yogi who can put both feet behind their head, the workshop is open to all the levels with teacher giving different variations for everyone.
The physical practice will focus on backbending asanas to open up our hearts. Our body’s natural response to danger is to curl in, protecting our most vulnerable part – our heart, both the physical heart and the energetic heart space. Backbends do the very opposite action by opening us up to the world. We are exposing ourselves and that takes courage – but also builds more of it! Overcoming our fears on the mat can give us courage off the mat too.
About Claudia:
The first time Claudia stepped on a yoga mat was in 2010…and then she has never got out of it. The Jivamukti method came in her life some years later, during a really hard period and, since the first approach, the method has been showing her that at her very core, beneath a deep sense of darkness, there was an unshakeable, unified and life-affirming desire and ability to heal, giving here some first glimpses of freedom. Practising asanas, starting to explore pranayama and meditation and jumping into the wonderful world of chanting mantra were vital to her to feel grounded and to be aware again of the strong connection between mind and body.
Claudia decided to embark in the journey of becoming a Jivamukti teacher since she wanted to share with others the light that the path of yoga brought into her life. Practising yoga taught her that we don’t have necessarily to change our own reality to be happy, but the perspective can be different if we look at it from the heart. Since the very beginning of this life-lasting path, she has been learning from and growing up beside her dearest teacher and mentor, Olga Oskorbina, to whom her deepest gratitude goes.
Claudia’s motto, passed to her from her teacher, is what she aims to teach to her students: “You can’t fall off the path, it is all the path”. This is what she always tries to incorporate in her classes which are dynamic, highly inclusive and accompanied by a playful atmosphere…and always by a big smile.

Inversions & Arm Balances: Finding Lightness & Strength
Join Jessica Puglié for a fun and productive afternoon of inversions and arm balances!
Are you curious about inversions and arm balancing? Would you like to learn more about it?
Whether you are an experienced practitioner looking for a challenge or a more beginner one afraid of going upside down or on your arms, this workshop is for you!
You will learn the mechanics of these poses, the awareness that comes with them in a safe, not judgmental environment, overcoming the fear of failing or falling. This workshop aims to break down various inversions and arm balancing poses (including forearmstand, headstand and handstand).
We start with a short breathing exercise, followed by a fun flow with repetition of functional organic movements, coordination, and Yoga poses with a focus on mobility and strength to warm up, engage the core, the bandhas and bring awareness to the body and the mind. Then we will try different arm balances and inversions with a guided conversation about anatomy. We will break down the mechanics of each pose, step by step. You will be able to experiment with the poses though a different approach to the practice, with variations for all levels, finishing with a short well deserved final relaxation. You will be guided to feel and sense every single movement and transition, through the power of gravity, opposite forces, and your own intuition.
Come, learn and play...all levels welcome!
About Jessica:
Jessica is a senior Yoga teacher with 18 years of experience. Previously trained as a dancer, her Yoga training includes 200-hour and 500-hour advanced Dharma yoga under the teaching of Sir Dharma Mittra and hot yoga, which she also taught as a senior teacher.
In her 18 years of teaching she have taught classes, Yoga retreats/holidays and workshops in Italy, London, and Indonesia. In London she taught in renowned yoga centers Triyoga and Indaba yoga. Her interest in alternative therapies and anatomy led her to attend several courses including reflexology, Anatomytrains fascia seminars, Forrest yoga continuing education for teachers and a Soft Tissue therapy course in London. Lately she has returned to attending dance classes and anatomy courses with therapists, teachers, and choreographers (Tom Mayer, Russel Maliphant). Combining her experience in the physical/therapeutic field of yoga, the study of philosophy, breathing exercises/meditation with her dance experience, at present she teaches a dynamic mix of different styles and traditions. Her asana teaching also includes repetitions of functional and organic movements, mirroring multidimensional actions of everyday life, coordination, strength, and flexibility.
The style is a mix between the traditional and the experimental, creative, playful and in constant evolution, full of variations for all levels of practice. She is a firm believer in the power of conscious movement and in the unique power of intuition that everyone possesses, that gives us the ability to find space, freedom and control of body and mind.
Registered with Yoga Alliance as ERYT 500 PLUS Senior LVL 4 yoga teacher, she also teaches a 25-hour intensive called "Natural Yoga" and a 50-hour teacher training program called "Anatomy and the art of movement" in which she transmits all her knowledge of years of experience, from breathing exercises/meditation, anatomical application in postures and transitions, to the art of teaching creative and functional sequences following the organic movement of the body. She is also a member of the Italian sports association CSI.
She really enjoys watching people discover the power of their own intuition through experimentation, concentration, observation, and action...and of course movement!

Cacao Ceremony
Join Donata Meduri for a Cacao Ceremony: a heart-opening experience centered around self-discovery and connection; an opportunity to go inwards, release stagnant energies, relax and find clarity, while also creating authentic connections with yourself and others.
Engaging with Cacao in Ceremony expands your horizons beyond merely savoring it as a tasty drink boasting health, mood, and energy benefits. Ceremonial Cacao is used as Shamanic medicine and through opening the heart, it enables you to hear your true self.
Different from standard chocolate bars available in shops and at the supermarket, Ceremonial Cacao is Cacao in its purest form. Used by Mesoamerican cultures for thousands of years, Cacao is capable of opening the heart by increasing the vibratory frequency of every cell in your body, bringing you closer to the dimensions of love, joy and inner peace.
The Ceremony will begin with a purification ritual using copal, cleansing the mind, body, and spirit.
You'll then learn more about the history of Cacao and the benefits of this ancient plant medicine, before being guided into mindfully drinking your cup of Cacao. Through breathing exercises, intuitive movement, and the soothing tones of healing music, you'll be invited to release inhibitions and surrender to the wisdom of the present moment. Oracle cards offer gentle guidance, while journaling prompts introspection and personal insight. As the ceremony unfolds, attendees are encouraged to speak from the heart, fostering a sense of community and mutual understanding, where hearts intertwine in vulnerability and authenticity. It doesn't matter if you've never joined a Ceremony of this kind, everyone is welcome. Suitable for vegans.
Is Ceremonial Cacao for you?
The consumption of Ceremonial Cacao should be avoided if taking antidepressants/high doses of SSRIs.
Ceremonial Cacao is not recommended if you have heart problems, adrenal fatigue, high blood pressure, are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Ceremonial Cacao is not recommended if you are caffeine sensitive (If you drink coffee, you are able to drink cacao.).
Get Ready For The Event
Wear comfortable and clothes that are also good for moving your body and for relaxation.
Eat light before the ceremony.
It is recommended not to drink coffee on the day of the Ceremony (If you really can't resist, avoid coffee at least 4 hours before the Ceremony.).
Drink lots of water and bring your water bottle with you. Cacao is a diuretic and without proper hydration, headaches can occur.
Bring a pen and your journal or notebook.
If you want, you can also bring a gift for our altar - it can be something very simple like a flower or leaf found on the ground in a park or a small object dear to you (like a crystal) which you will then take home with you.
About Donata:
The Ceremony will be guided by Donata, Cacao Ceremonies Facilitator and yoga teacher working with heart opening therapies involving Ceremonial Cacao, yoga, intuitive movement, breath and sound as instruments for transformation. Donata loves integrating Ritual and Ceremony into her space-holding practice to create environments that nurture self-awareness and inner exploration. Her goal is to offer a sanctuary amidst urban life, fostering connections and creativity. A yoga student since 2012, she graduated from Yoga Sutra Shala in 2020. Italian by birth and former London resident, she teaches Yoga and Pranayama online and hosts Cacao Ceremonies in Rome, where she currently lives.

Reiki Infused Crystal Alchemy Sound Bath
Join Sound Healer and Reiki Master Cecilia Cortes for a deeply relaxing sound healing experience!
Based on ancient healing techniques, vibrations of sound work on a cellular level to recalibrate the mind, body, and spirit. These healing frequencies stimulate alpha and theta brain wave frequencies, balance the hemispheres of the brain, and promote a sense of ease and inner peace. In addition to relief from chronic pain and migraines, benefits of a Sound Bath include improved sleep, reduction of stress and anxiety, as well as a renewed sense of well-being, calm, and happiness.
Cecilia uses Crystal Tones Alchemy Singing Bowls that are made from 99.99% pure crystal quartz and blended with precious metals, crystals and gemstones. These unique bowls offer more than just sound—they offer healing intentions at a frequency level for a blissful experience.
This class is specifically tailored for those who crave 'me time', as well as those who are sensitive or emotional. It offers an opportunity for attendees to connect more deeply with who they are and to digest some of the emotional and mental load that they carry within them.
What to Expect:
This class flow is designed to provide you with a 360 experience. We start off with a meditation to prepare your mind and body, followed by the harmonizing sounds of the Crystal Tones alchemy bowls. After the sound session, there's a period of silence for reintegration during which Cecilia will be sending reiki healing. Finally, you'll be guided back to your regular state by the sound of beautiful chimes.
Benefits:
You'll reap a multitude of benefits, including improved mood, lower blood pressure, improved sleep, mental clarity, stress and anxiety relief, relaxed muscles, and a sense of inner harmony and overall well-being.
You'll Leave Feeling:
You will leave the session feeling like a great weight has been lifted, with a sense of peace and clarity. It's common to feel a bit spaced out initially—this is a normal part of the process.
Aftercare:
Remember to hydrate well after the session, as this aids in processing the energy shifts you may have experienced.
About Brain Waves:
One of the lesser-known but scientifically-backed benefits of our Crystal Bowls class lies in its impact on brain wave activity. Typically, your brain operates at higher-frequency Beta waves during wakeful consciousness, which is often associated with stress and anxiety. The sounds and frequencies produced during the session promote a shift from these Beta waves to Alpha and Theta waves. Alpha waves are linked with relaxed awareness and creativity, while Theta waves are associated with deep meditation, mental clarity, and reduced anxiety. This shift in brain wave activity augments the healing process, facilitating a deeper state of relaxation and well-being.
About Cecilia:
Cecilia Cortes is a Sound Healer, Reiki master, Chakra healer, and woman embodiment coach. She grew up in India in the international Auroville community, and now lives between Los Angeles and Rome and is known for her light-filled presence and her ability to guide people to a radiant, energetic life of self-love, serenity, abundance and joy. Her sound baths have been described as "otherworldly" and "a magical, must-do experience for those just getting into meditation."

Pop-Up Class: Power Restore
Join Rae Helsel for a special pop-up class: Power Restore “Finding Refuge.”
“We feel the breath, as we inhale we draw ourselves into the moment by attending to a single simple action, this is the tool that takes us out of the chaos of the mind and brings us back into clarity. We call this taking refuge in the body. Our practice is about creating awareness in the moment.” // Thomas Droge
To find balance on the inside and the outside, we need REST just as much as we need MOVEMENT. Drawing upon 5 Element Theory and the principles of interval training, this heart-themed class creatively intertwines a strong vinyasa practice with deeply restorative modalities to increase heart rate variability, optimize vagal tone and encourage homeostasis within the body. It allows the body to adeptly move between the sympathetic (fight or flight) and parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system in one comprehensive practice, and it facilitates our deep human potential for self-regulation and healing. It’s how we foster our resilience - physically, mentally, and emotionally.
In Chinese medicine, the heart is a very important organ, and not just physically - it’s said that the heart holds the SHEN, which is really our spirit. When we get burnt out, the Shen is said to leave the physical body, and then the emotion that manifests is anxiety.
Taught by Rae Helsel, the intention for this workshop is to flow, breathe, and be still as an invitation for the Shen to fully land within so that we can remember (and move from) an embodied state.
About Rae:

Reiki Infused Crystal Alchemy Sound Bath
Join Sound Healer and Reiki Master Cecilia Cortes for a deeply relaxing sound healing experience!
Based on ancient healing techniques, vibrations of sound work on a cellular level to recalibrate the mind, body, and spirit. These healing frequencies stimulate alpha and theta brain wave frequencies, balance the hemispheres of the brain, and promote a sense of ease and inner peace. In addition to relief from chronic pain and migraines, benefits of a Sound Bath include improved sleep, reduction of stress and anxiety, as well as a renewed sense of well-being, calm, and happiness.
Cecilia uses Crystal Tones Alchemy Singing Bowls that are made from 99.99% pure crystal quartz and blended with precious metals, crystals and gemstones. These unique bowls offer more than just sound—they offer healing intentions at a frequency level for a blissful experience.
This class is specifically tailored for those who crave 'me time', as well as those who are sensitive or emotional. It offers an opportunity for attendees to connect more deeply with who they are and to digest some of the emotional and mental load that they carry within them.
What to Expect:
This class flow is designed to provide you with a 360 experience. We start off with a meditation to prepare your mind and body, followed by the harmonizing sounds of the Crystal Tones alchemy bowls. After the sound session, there's a period of silence for reintegration during which Cecilia will be sending reiki healing. Finally, you'll be guided back to your regular state by the sound of beautiful chimes.
Benefits:
You'll reap a multitude of benefits, including improved mood, lower blood pressure, improved sleep, mental clarity, stress and anxiety relief, relaxed muscles, and a sense of inner harmony and overall well-being.
You'll Leave Feeling:
You will leave the session feeling like a great weight has been lifted, with a sense of peace and clarity. It's common to feel a bit spaced out initially—this is a normal part of the process.
Aftercare:
Remember to hydrate well after the session, as this aids in processing the energy shifts you may have experienced.
About Brain Waves:
One of the lesser-known but scientifically-backed benefits of our Crystal Bowls class lies in its impact on brain wave activity. Typically, your brain operates at higher-frequency Beta waves during wakeful consciousness, which is often associated with stress and anxiety. The sounds and frequencies produced during the session promote a shift from these Beta waves to Alpha and Theta waves. Alpha waves are linked with relaxed awareness and creativity, while Theta waves are associated with deep meditation, mental clarity, and reduced anxiety. This shift in brain wave activity augments the healing process, facilitating a deeper state of relaxation and well-being.
About Cecilia:
Cecilia Cortes is a Sound Healer, Reiki master, Chakra healer, and woman embodiment coach. She grew up in India in the international Auroville community, and now lives between Los Angeles and Rome and is known for her light-filled presence and her ability to guide people to a radiant, energetic life of self-love, serenity, abundance and joy. Her sound baths have been described as "otherworldly" and "a magical, must-do experience for those just getting into meditation."

The Sound Healing Experience
Join Simone Migliaccio for inner healing through sound.
A sensory journey guided by mystical sounds and chants, an inner hug into deep relaxation, love, and self-discovery. The Sound Healing experience is an opportunity to renew energies and connect with the loving awareness of our being. A magical way to understand ourselves beyond personal suffering.
What to expect:
The first part of the event is dedicated to a brief dharma talk, a guided reflection to enter the meditative state, where thoughts and sensations in the present moment are explored. Then participants are guided towards the release of bodily and mental control. The instruments used include gongs, koshi chimes, Tibetan singing bowls, drums, Native American flute, crystal bowls, and live synths. Additionally, the chanting of Tibetan and Hindu mantras encourages deep introspection, detachment from the ego, and direct connection with our "inner child." Emotional healing is supported, promoting the release of thoughts no longer useful to our personal growth.
About Simone:
Simone’s journey has been filled with various notes and rhythms, traversing the world while discovering the interconnectedness of all things. He resided in London for nearly 10 years, exploring diverse paths, delving into music production, and working as a freelance photographer. In 2018, the practice of yoga opened the door to the pursuit of inner peace. Guided by inspiring teachers, he explored Ashtanga, Hatha, Kundalini, and the Bhakti way of living.
In 2022, Simone and his partner followed their hearts on a six-month journey to Bali, aiming to deepen their practice. Following profound shamanic experiences, his understanding of life reached unimaginable depths, drawing him closer to Himalayan singing bowls. In that realm of inner awareness, he dedicated several hours a day to transcendental meditation and yoga, immersing himself in influential literature and the wisdom of Ram Dass, Thich Nhat Hanh, and Alan Watts. To establish a strong foundation, he attended Sound Healing workshops and an advanced course at The Himalayan Academy of Sound Healing, nurturing his growth in knowledge and love. After six transformative months, he returned to Italy, inspired to share the beauty of his journey. In September 2023, Simone and his partner inaugurated a yoga studio nestled in the Etruscan hills of Cerveteri. There, he offers sound baths, one-to-one healing sessions, and mindfulness classes. Today, he continues navigating this perpetual learning process with patience and gratitude. As he persists on this path, he remains open to connecting with fellow yogis for new experiences, collectively deepening the practice of love and compassion.
Yin Yang Myofascial Workshop
Join Alyssa Goldberg for a vin to yin yoga flow!
This dynamic class is an exploration of the myofascial tissues of the body and the divine masculine and feminine energies within each of us.

Think yoga meets martial arts and barre method. The second half is a nourishing and deeply relaxing yin sequence designed to unwind the nervous system and increase flexibility. In balancing these opposite energies, we are able to find more peace and connection between body, mind, and heart.
About Alyssa:
Alyssa Goldberg (RYT 500) is humbled to share her passion and love for yoga with others on a daily basis.

A practitioner for over a decade, yoga continues to be a tool that speaks to her creative soul, enhances her passion for building community, and supports her mission to bring more light into the world. Previously challenged by the idea that she needed to fit into just one box, Alyssa is inspired by the endless potential that lives within each of us, as learned through practicing yoga. She hopes to empower others to find a similar feeling of connection and knowing on their mat, and prioritizes making yoga accessible to all levels and backgrounds.

Sound Workshops with Kyla Quinn
Kyla Quinn, a professional singer from NYC currently living in Mexico City, is here to help you unblock your throat chakra. The main goal she has when teaching is for you to connect with your voice on 3 levels. First, it’s a physical connection with the mechanics of voice and breath. Second, it’s an emotional connection you have with your life story and identity. And third, it’s a cosmic connection you have with the whole universe that’s bigger than yourself. Music is vibration and the whole universe is made of vibrations. So when you tap into the flow of singing you also connect with the energy of what makes the universe.
Kyla believes everyone already knows how to sing, as singing and music are an innate part of your soul. She's going to help you allow your voice to be and let it shine with beauty.

Diaphramic Breathing
Somatic Sounding & Vocal Toning
