More Information
What is "Suryashtanga" yoga?
Suryashtanga is a way of practicing yoga that was developped by the founder of our school, Stéphane Chollet. It is based on the philosophical guidelines of the “Yoga in 8 steps” (Ashtanga). That includes ethical principles, body exercises, conscious breathing and concentration.
Our yoga classes start with dynamic exercises, followed by static postures and a guided relaxation.
What is the difference between Taijiquan and Taichi?
Taijiquan is often spelled as Taichi in the West. It is a Chinese martial art that is today well-known for its health benefits.
At Surya we practice HunYuan Taijiquan which includes Qigong for increasing our life energy.
Do you offer regular meditation sessions?
Our class schedule include two weekly Yoga & Meditation classes. We start with a gentle 30 minutes physical practice to release tensions in our body, before conentrating on the respiration and concluding with a 15 minutes guided meditation.
I never practiced Yoga. Do you have beginners classes?
You can participate in our “all levels” Yoga classes. The practice is accessable for beginners. We teach different variations of mouvements and postures for beginners and more advanced students.
When does your next semester start?
You can start coming to our classes whenever you want, there are no defined semesters.
Do you have volunteering opportunities?
