About Aida
I’m delighted to host this retreat with Aida.
Since young days Aida had deep inner enquiries about the embodiment of this being, eager to know the why and the how how beyond what was taught. Graduating in music and audiovisual arts a strong call for innate connection to mother nature as well as desire to understand the human nature brought her nomadic soul traveling places in India. South East Asia as well as Europe. Away from cites, with the pace of nature she deepened her spiritual practice and studies. Soon after through Thai yoga massage and Shiatsu entered the world of sacred bodywork and until the day Shiatsu practice is one of her significant offerings.It supports the body-mind to return to a natural state of harmonious flow and homeostasis.While living on Crete for a few years she found Pure Self which is since her most heart centred long term project. Aida’s classes are based on classic Hatha yoga which over the years became more flowing, allowing space to naturally unfold during the practice as a metamorphic experience where challenges are approached in a calm, steady and nourishing way. Yin yoga is another of her offerings, these sessions are deeply, grounding often accompanied by poetry and other insightful details.
