programme
10:30 - 11:05 - Precision & Flow Yoga with Sara
We will start our day with a nice flow, raising the heat a little, coordinating the breath with the movement, and cultivating a healthy blood flow. During the practice we create space in our body and explore our flexibility so that we can be available and open for new tasks and life opportunities with more ease and joy. We reconnect and reunite, practising to love our body.
11.10-11.45 - Qi Gong & Yin Yoga with Johanna
We continue with an easy but powerful qui gong flow to boost our immune system and connect breath with movement, before we find stillness with gently held Yin Yoga positions. As you relax into those positions close to the ground you are invited to extend your breath to get into a peaceful state of mind. This class will give you the opportunity to slow down and observe sensations and emotions as you release tension that is held in the connective tissues (fascia).
11:50 - 12:25 - Breathing Meditation with Martina
Martina will guide a breathing meditation to awaken more energy in your body as well as to clear any stagnation or blockages you might be holding. You will explore the power of your breath in combination with spinal movement and then be guided into stillness to observe any sensations and aliveness of your body.
12:25 - 13:00h - Closing and Optional Lunch
After this practise we would like to close the programme by taking a moment to reflect, give us feedback or share your experience. Fresh homemade empanadas can be preordered from Cafe Tati when you sign up and you can get a refreshing drink at This is Lisbon Hostel. You can also bring your own lunch and enjoy your meal on the terrace and connect to your fellow practitioners and teachers in a nice conversation. We are looking forward to seeing you!

You will see a new white building with a ‘Pingo Doce’ Supermarket; inside there is another elevator (operates 24 hours) that takes you straight to the street of This Is Lisbon. Go left on COSTA DO CASTELO and after 400m, you see This Is Lisbon on your left.
