My name is Melina I come from Athens-Greece
and this is my story..
Ashtanga Yoga Tutorials
During the last couple of years of COVID-19 seclusion and after the persistent urge from my students, the ideal opportunity finally arose to focus on filming a series of Tutorials dedicated to the Primary Series of the Ashtanga Yoga Practice.The Shala
Ashtanga Yoga Kifisia is a space dedicated to the teaching of the Ashtanga Yoga method, as taught under the lineage of Shri K. Pattabhi Jois and Sharath Jois..
Our Shala is our temple, a place to let go, meditate, re-charge & bloom like early flowers in spring..





Program
Mysore Self Practice is the traditional way in which the Ashtanga practice is taught from teacher to student, in an unbroken lineage from Sri T. Krishnamacharya to now. In a Mysore class every student works to his/her own time & space, according to his/her experience & understanding of the practice.

•
This is our PELVIC FLOOR..
Probably the most underestimated part of our body, and by all means the most important one.
•
Walking on the yoga path through the last 25 years, it is becoming more & more apparent that our pelvic floor is the center of our body, the center of our energy and the basic axiom through which everything moves & relates to each other, physically, spiritually & emotionally.
•
Moving repetitively through the series of Ashtanga Yoga we slowly start to be able to see, to listen, to understand, to acknowledge and to search deeper for the cause and effect of every action & thought..
•
Ashtanga Yoga is a study of Physics, Mathematcs & Philosophy all in one, altogether, in absolute interrelation..
•
It’s not just a practice.
•
ITS A SCIENTIFIC LIFETIME RESEARCH OF CONNECTING ALL THE SCIENCES & THEORIES TOGETHER UNDER ONE MOVEMENT, UNDER ONE BREATH..
•
A lot was said, and a lot was shown last Saturday, and hopefully it found some space to grow..
•
Keep connected as a lot is on the WAY..
♥️♥️♥️

Weddings are when families come together, filled with laughter, filled with joy, filled with deep emotions for the member of the family that chooses a new mate to plan life ahead, to create new life and cultivate a fertile ground for future generations..
•
My nieces Hlectra’s wedding was a wedding of this kind, a time of coming together with my family from my mothers side, my cousins and my nieces, and above all my aunties, laughing, gossiping and smoking while sat next to each other, and looking alike in all ways and forms..
•
I love my aunties so very very much!
They are cult, they cool, they are so damn authentic!
.
Mom, you are so great!!
♥️⚡️♥️
