ASHTANGA DYNAMIC FLOW YOGA INTENSIVES in GOA
The intensives are generally for people who wish to practice and study yoga for a full 4 weeks.
People with a keen interest to attend but who have limited free time are welcome to join us for the first week which includes the introductory lectures on the philosophy and practice of yoga. These courses are suitable for yoga lovers of ALL LEVELS.
These yoga intensive holidays offer the opportunity to practice yoga, explore Goa and have fun at a price affordable to everyone!! It is our hope that yoga lovers of all levels will come together to explore, discover and share the power of yoga as a transformative tool in ones life whilst having a relaxing and enjoyable holiday.
You will be attending classes and lectures with teacher training trainees which are taught by a team of experienced and highly skilled international teachers so that you have the chance to learn something new and participate in yoga studies as opposed to just practicing yoga.
But be warned!!!! attending yoga classes taught by Tribe teachers can positively influence your physical, mental and emotional wellbeing and cultivate a higher awareness so you have a much richer and rewarding experience of yourself, others and the world you live in. Mandrem in North Goa is a quiet and peaceful seaside village with a fabulous sandy beach and good swimming conditions. A comfortable 20 min stroll along the beach is the vibrant and interesting seaside village of Arambol, full of colourful people (independent travellers, spiritual seekers, artists), restaurants, bars, and shops etc. If ones strolls along the beach in the opposite direction you will be able enjoy miles and miles of sandy beach with the odd beach restaurant in which you can take refreshment and enjoy the beauty of the Arabian sea. .jpg)

Whether you are new to yoga or an experienced yoga practitioner, the guidance given by Scarlett, Raquel and other Tribe teachers will encourage the body and mind to relax and unwind into the peace and relative stillness of the inner self.
Through simple and clear instruction we will encourage our body and mind to surrender so that we may experience ourselves at a much deeper level.
As we progress through the yoga practices the body and mind are invited to let go of residual tensions so that awareness and energy flow more freely and harmoniously. These yoga courses offer an opportunity to explore breathing, awareness, movement and stillness through a combination of yoga styles and yoga practices. During each week you will be taught different pranayama & meditation techniques and disciplines. The asana practice will be a mixture of simple and more challenging postures with the introduction of modifications and props for the benifit of those who need them. For both beginners and more experienced yoga students apart from from a great location for having fun and exploring Goa these courses presents a fantastic opportunity to enhance your understanding of yoga as a tool of self discovery and development.
