“Yoga is the perfect opportunity to be curious about who you are"
Jason Crandell
Yoga by Astrid
Yoga brings you to the present moment, teaches you about your fear, limitations, your strengths and weaknesses, teaches you to acknowledge the ego. Yoga for me is a practice of being yourself, feeling what is, no judgments or expectations.
I started Yoga in 2010 while living in Shanghai. Living in this city was crazy and exhausting, I was looking for a way to stay healthy and also restore energy. I started practicing Yoga at Y+ with a team of fantastic teachers that shared their passion with dedication… I was hooked.
I started with a regular Hot Yoga practice, quickly moving to Vinyassa flow and other practices. For 5 years, I was practicing almost daily and starting to think of sharing my passion for yoga by becoming an instructor.
My style is dynamic, fun and relaxing at the same time anchored in self-compassion as key component of the practice. I like flows that get you out of your head and into feeling, a touch of music and chanting into savasana for a complete release.
