Vinyasa Yoga

Puerto de la Cruz | La Palma

A dynamic practice in which breath and movement become one, creating a fluid, energising and mindful yoga experience.

The term Vinyasa comes from Sanskrit and can be understood as "to place in a special way". In yoga practice it refers to the conscious integration of movement, breath and attention. Although its roots lie in the Hatha Yoga traditions and in ancient teachings from India, Vinyasa as it is practised in the West today developed above all out of different currents of modern yoga, influenced by traditions such as Ashtanga Vinyasa.

At Tushala, every Vinyasa class offers a different sequence with a specific focus. It may be about exploring a family of postures, working on the mobility of a particular area of the body, building strength and stability, or gradually preparing for a more complex posture.

Through flowing sequences, we connect each movement with the breath, creating a continuous rhythm in which the body stays active and the mind finds a point of concentration. The transitions between postures are an essential part of the practice and invite us to move with coordination, presence and body awareness.

The classes offer a space to explore our limits in a gradual and conscious way, developing strength, mobility, balance, coordination and endurance, while cultivating a deeper connection between body, breath and mind.

Continuous movement also turns the practice into a form of moving meditation: as we follow the breath and focus on what is happening in the body, we leave less room for distractions and immerse ourselves fully in the present moment.

At Tushala, Vinyasa is an active and dynamic practice, designed for those who enjoy moving, exploring and feeling present in their body. The sequences can be progressive and challenging, always offering different options so they can be adapted to each person's needs and experience.

Come to move, breathe and explore. Every class is a new sequence, a new opportunity to meet your practice.
