Sandra Sabatinin ja Michal Havkinin kaikille avoin joogakurssi Helsingissä 6.-8.6.2025 sekä joogaopettajien päivä 9.6.2025
Ilokseni saan tänäkin vuonna järjestää kahden viisaan ja kokeneen opettajan kurssin Helsingissä. Olet sydämellisesti tervetullut mukaan ja vastaan mieluusti kaikkiin kurssia koskeviin kysymyksiin!
THE PAUSE: A special place of exploration and stillness
There is a long journey ahead of each practitioner in search of the natural pause at the end of the exaltation, the rewarding discovery of its existence and its benefits. And a similar journey to open and receive the pause at the top of the inhalation.
During our days together we will touch both pauses to uncover their beauty and true essence.
June 6-8, 2024 – For all yoga practitioners
June 9, 2024 – A day for yoga teachers only
The sessions will incorporate some Feldenkrais movements towards facilitating a playful and different experience of yoga positions. The unfolding of the body will go along with the unfolding of the breath supported by a slow and meditative approach.
TIME & PLACE: Friday-Sunday, 6-8 June 2024 in Gallery Sitruunapuu, Sammatintie 2, Helsinki
Practicing times:
Friday 9.30-12.30 & 16.00-18.00

PRICE: 360€
Monday, June 9, is reserved for yoga teachers only.
In this special day with yoga teachers visualizations, touch and some positions will be revisited together to acquire a deeper sense of the meaning of space in teaching.
We will look at the teachers requests and build each session to their needs in how to approach each and every breathing rhythm, Asanas and Mudras leaving an open space for discussions, exchanges and sharing.
The practicing times will be 9.30-12.30 and 15.30-18.30. In order to join the teachers’ day you have to join the weekend too. The price for four days is 520€ altogether. The minimum number of participants for the teachers’ day is eight.

Desikachar over many years. Her lifelong friendship with Krishnamurti is vastly reflected in her teachings. Vanda’s legacy is a constant encouragement towards exploration and inventiveness and shines through the heart of Sandra’s teachings.
Michal Havkin has over three decades of experience dancing professionally. These roots, woven with her long-term study with Sandra, support you to discover new levels of awareness within the minute changes in your body.
Sandra and Michal have been teaching together for over 20 years and they share the same interest in exploring movements and breath. They will split the teaching between them.
