The Yogic Sea, a Yogi experience on a sailboat with Carla Rizzu, 4 days and 3 nights to be in close contact with the wind, sea, land and sail, practicing ANUKALANA Yoga in a more than natural setting, the Natural Park of Porto Conte with its Protected Marine Area of Capo Caccia and Isola Piana, on the beautiful island of Sardinia. The teacher will accompany us in a unique experience in close contact with the nature and elements that surround it, we will be cradled by the sea, protected by the sky, embraced by the earth, and caressed by the wind while the skipper will accompany us safely to discover the most suggestive places of the territory. Anukalana yoga is the approach we will adopt, based on a methodical process of integration that respects Tradition giving space to innovation. ANUKALANA offers the possibility to practice Yoga in a fully natural way, in total respect of one’s physical and mental constitution, born from the research of experienced yogis also in the field of osteopathy, motor sciences, and Eastern traditions. The boat will be our home, our means of transportation, our space to isolate and unplug, we will alternate meditation, yoga practices, navigation, and relaxation with enthusiasm and a desire to relate and get involved.
