My name is Virginia Franquesa, I have been a yoga teacher since 2005 and I teach hatha yoga classes in my center in Palma. For me it is a pleasure to share my experience, knowledge in the art and practice of yoga, as well as to be able to learn a little more from my students every day. I encourage you from here to introduce yourself to the world of yoga. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

I trained at the Parmath NiKetan ashram center in Rishikesh in India for two years. Karin O’bannon (Senior Level Certified Teacher of the Iyengar Method), was the person who trained me for a year in Rishikesh. She is a woman full of strength, courage and integrity. He has dedicated his whole life fully to teaching, transmitting with great wisdom the art of yoga. She was the one who guided me throughout my training and taught me everything I know about yoga, how to integrate it into my life and be able to share it with others. I feel enormously grateful to have had her as a teacher and to have given me the great opportunity to collaborate with her in the supervision of the classes. <\/p>

During the time of my training in India, I studied with Usha Devi and Bramacharya Rudra Dev, great masters of yoga, (Certified Senior Level Teachers of the Iyengar Method), which allowed me to deepen many other aspects of this practice and learn other ways of teaching, which enriched my training both professionally and personally. This wonderful experience of working hand in hand with such experienced teachers, with such devotion and generosity towards others, (disciples and messengers of the great guru B.K.S Iyengar), has enabled me to appreciate yoga as an attitude and way of life. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In my classes we work in a precise, intense and dynamic way, looking for perfection of posture and good alignment of the body. I follow a method of deep work, using all kinds of tools and supports to be able to adapt the practice taking into account the needs of each student. <\/p>

This practice allows physiological problems to be treated, adapting the classes individually, in which specific sequences are carried out to guide the student to achieve an overall improvement of their body.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
