Vanda Scaravelli
I often wonder what it would have been like to meet and work with Vanda personally. Her approach informed my teacher training and and my practice and teaching style to this day. What characterises this practice?
Vanda believed in the natural wisdom of the body and in the unraveling release that we can find through careful practice. Three practice 'friends' - Gravity, The Spine & The Breath, make everything possible.
The lower half of the body learns to root down into the ground and to be become anchored and strong. The upper half of the body meanwhile becomes more fluid and free.
