STRENGTH AND CONFIDENCE BOOST FOR ADVANCED ASANAS

This foundational pose gives you unparalleled upper-body and lower-belly strength. It fosters enhanced confidence and greater awareness in your yoga practice.

  • The strength seamlessly extends into more challenging arm balance poses such as Bakasana (Crane Pose, often called Crow Pose), Galavasana (Flying Pigeon Pose) and Vasisthasana (Side Plank Pose).

  • The stability forms a strong foundation for safe inversions, improving shoulder stability, core strength and leg awareness. It serves as optimal training for poses like Sirsasana (Headstand), Pincha Mayurasana (Forearm Balance) and Adho Mukha Vrksasana (Handstand).

  • Engaging your legs in Chaturanga establishes a fundamental basis for various back-bending asanas such as poses like Urdhva Mukha Svanasana (Upward-Facing Dog), Setu Bandha Sarvangasana (Bridge Pose) and Urdhva Dhanurasana (Upward Bow Pose, often referred to as Wheel Pose).

ARE YOU TIRED OF FEELING FRUSTRATED AND STRUGGLING WITH LOW PLANK (CHATURANGA DANDASANA) IN YOUR VINYASA YOGA PRACTICE?

Often underestimated, Low Plank/Chaturanga Dandasana holds a pivotal role in vinyasa yoga. Beneath its surface, this foundational pose underpins seamless and controlled transitions between asanas, significantly enhancing your practice. Often known as the "Four-Limbed Staff Pose," Chaturanga Dandasana requires core strength, stability and precise alignment. Moving your whole body deliberately plank-esque boosts your physical strength, focusing on your shoulders, core and legs.

DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT...HERE ARE A FEW COMMENTS FROM MY STUDENTS

“By focusing on the technical aspects, Natalia encourages precision, stability and strength, contributing to a well-rounded experience. Natalia emphasizes proper technique is essential for a safe and effective yoga practice. She provides a supportive and adaptable learning environment, fostering growth and progress for her students.”

— MARGRIET, K., NETHERLANDS

“Within just a few weeks of practicing under your guidance, I achieved postures that I had previously believed were beyond my capabilities, despite having practiced for years. Each teacher has a distinctive approach and teaching style and yours predominantly emphasized proper posture and alignment. Your approach to yoga prioritizes quality over quantity and is characterized by a systematic, step-by-step process for each posture. Your sessions emphasize the “how to” aspects of getting into a particular posture, providing a detailed breakdown I had not encountered in my yoga classes. By breaking down each posture into smaller, more manageable steps, this approach enabled me to work towards achieving the peak posture with greater precision and ease.”

— LARA ZAWAEDI, LEBANON

“You have a very special way of explaining asanas, breaking them down, showing what matters – which is not doing the perfect handstand or the most incredible arm balances, but it is more about what the asana is doing for your body. Your methodology is unique. It makes me understand certain things better and remember them when doing other classes.”

—JULIA W., GERMANY

“What attracts me to your classes is your vibrant energy, attention to your students and focus on technique. I love your theme-focused classes because you really teach it in phases and help us master the technique while understanding how our bodies react to it.”

— TAMARA G., LEBANON
