ABOUT Soraya
HELLO !
Here is some short note about me and what to expect when joining one of my retreats or yoga sessions.
I will guide you through gentle but strengthening yoga sessions with flowing movements and grounding, meditative elements. Along the way, the breath is our close companion to effortlessly bring our focus inwards and allow us to become calm.
Practicing yoga for me means re-connecting with my essence and discovering the space within and around me. I like the aspects of joy, humour, stillness and gratitude and like to weave these themes into my yoga.
I like to engage with cultures & philosophies from around the world. The more I discover, the less I know,…and the more I discover, even less I know, and.... :-) This inspires me to constantly explore and deepen what is there.
My first contact with Far Eastern philosophies (TCM, Ajurveda, Yoga, Taichi) I experienced as a child. What an enrichment! I remember how I was playfully allowed to join Tai Chi and was impressed by the fans and swords! Then I started playing around with the sun salutation before school.
In 2006 I deepened my yoga practice due to a knee injury in sports (i was passionately playing volleyball). In 2016 I received the yoga teacher certificate in Goa and since then I offer courses and retreats in Switzerland and abroad (e.g. Sardinia, Sri Lanka) with the label SORA. Since 2016 I have continuously attended courses (Bps: Yin Yoga, Hormonal Yoga, Pre- and Postnatal, TCM, Energy Medicine,..), which have refined and complemented my style.
I am particularly inspired by Tara Brach, Grumukh, Paul & Katharina Shepherd, Deepak Chopra and Sadhguru, Alberto Villoldo, Ina Hullmann & Veit Lindau to name a few…. and I am sooo grateful for the many more wise and uplifting people and friends that I am connected with and I can learn from.
SORA means SKY/ HEAVEN in Japanese and stands for clarity, your essence and your infinite potential.
