Hatha Yoga

Practising Hatha Yoga is about giving us the time to enjoy moments of awareness and stillness. The yogic posture, the asana, is inviting the meditating body to expand further together with the eternal breath.
The daily practice during this week will refine our physical performance while creating the space for inner exploration and reflection. Honouring our skills but also our limitations we will embrace a physical training that teaches us the joy of life.


Anastasia Stoyannides
Anastasia Stoyannides, originally from Greece, lives in Vienna. She is interested in movement since her early childhood. She has studied ballet, release technique, improvisation, Japanese theater and physically oriented healing methods.
As a performer she had been a member of various groups exploring improvisation as an art form. Her first contact with Yoga was at the age of 14 and since then it is part of her life. Being a certified Yoga teacher from the Yoga Institut of Eva Ruchpaul, Paris/France, she found her "home" in the Hatha Yoga technique "bien temperé", which she is teaching passionately. For the last 18 years, she has been travelling giving seminars all around Europe, particularly in England, Germany, Austria, Greece and Spain. Her ability to inspire her students with a welcoming and honest approach to Yoga has made her work very popular. She feels deeply touched to be part of the ImpulsTanz teaching team since 1997!
