As far as I can see, the sky stretches blue. The warm gentle wind touches my skin. The sun moves in its own time, a slow graceful dance over the morning sky. Yoga in Skyros is like none other.
The views across the yoga platform stretch out over the Aegean Sea, and beyond. The sun catches the calm blue sea beneath us, sparkling like glistening white diamonds.
On the yoga floor the purple, pink and orange yoga mats are colourfully arranged. One by one, each mat is claimed. The class is filled with people, some new to yoga, and some have been practicing yoga for years.
Today we are doing our morning yoga, "Katrina Yoga" as it has fondly become known. A gentle, stretchy and energising yoga. Opening the body, opening the mind, opening the heart. The focus is on creating connection of the mind, body, and soul to our dreams.
Moving into a space of appreciation, love and gratitude for all that we have, all that we are, all that we dream of....
The yoga runs each day before breakfast and classes. Over 2 weeks, students build strength, inner trust and self confidence in their bodies.
For me, one of the real gifts is to watch as people make powerful break throughs and boldly step forward into their life purpose, creativity and guidance of their heart.
On this magnificent Skyros yoga platform, under the blue sky, and warm summer sun, is a beautiful coloured yoga mat, just waiting for you....
