Because of chronic back pain I found my way to Yoga Hamburg just about a year ago – I was thrilled and decided to keep up Iyengar Yoga. Since a couple of weeks ago my back pain disappeared almost completely. Not only my body awareness in general keeps improving through the yoga practise but it makes me much more flexible, calmer and more relaxed!
A central instruction in Iyengar yoga is to lift the heart. But in my case even the muscles of the pelvic floor have lifted and become stronger! Until a year ago my pelvic floor was in a very poor state (according to my doctor) and after only one year’s practising yoga it improved dramatically (confirms my doctor) and I do feel much, much better. What a success!
For me yoga practise is the ideal compensation for my studies which can be very hard at times. As a plus yoga is a great was to strenghten my muscles and improve my stamina.
For me each Iyengar yoga class is fresh and fascinating. There are always new asanas to discover, new aspects to explore in asanas and unknown areas of the own body.
Through yoga I find my personal balance. It is a combination of relaxation, strength and a lot of patience with myself.
Sorry, we have no special pregnancy classes. Students with Iyengar Yoga experience can come wednesday and thursday at 9 a.m. and friday at 16.30 a.m. Or please phone!
Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia.
It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth. Even the all-powerful Pointing has no control about the blind texts it is an almost unorthographic life One day however a small line of blind text by the name of Lorem Ipsum decided to leave for the far World of Grammar.
The Big Oxmox advised her not to do so, because there were thousands of bad Commas, wild Question Marks and devious Semikoli, but the Little Blind Text didn’t listen. She packed her seven versalia, put her initial into the belt and made herself on the way. When she reached the first hills of the Italic Mountains, she had a last view back on the skyline of her hometown Bookmarksgrove, the headline of Alphabet Village and the subline of her own road, the Line Lane. Pityful a rethoric question ran over her cheek, then
