About
I am an Oriental Medicine practitioner( Acupuncturist and Herbalist).
My yoga practice is strongly influenced by Buddhist approach, with focus on breath control and visualization, movement in all directions of mobility and space. I am a Buddhist practitioner, Karma Kagyu Tibetan lineage, so does my meditation practice.
I am teaching people to integrate movement, breath, meditation for the purpose of reaching their excellence or regain their state of health balance.
