Read moreAtmananda and its community is truly the most spirited, organic, diverse, and genuine yoga studio I have encountered. When first walking into the new space on East 23rd Street, there was a welcoming, peaceful, and sincere atmosphere created by the individuals at the front desk, fellow students, the natural wooden infrastructure, and gentle lighting. Although I have only spent three weeks at the studio taking classes and participating in the 200 hour teacher training certification program, every day has brought new discoveries, increased strength, continual motivation, and inner peace. Classes offered are EXORBITANT in variety and welcoming for all yogis, even if it's your first time! Dance-based yoga, core-centered or cardio yoga, restorative yoga, prenatal yoga, and the traditional, formulated Atmananda sequence are only a few of the many classes offered. In addition, the teacher training program provides an even more in depth study including breath practice, meditation, self-healing, nutrition, philosophy, etc. that truly creates a holistic and comprehensive understanding important to both living and sustaining life, especially though the emphasis on safe anatomical alignment, for oneself and others. Please come experience, embrace, and explore this incredible studio and share in the joy of movement with fellow yogi newbies,...
Read moreI recently had the pleasure of attending a tea ceremony facilitated by Eszter, and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience. From the moment I entered the serene space, I could feel Eszter’s calm energy enveloping the room, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and peace.
What struck me the most about the ceremony was the profound silence that Eszter encouraged throughout. It allowed for a deep sense of introspection and reflection, as we were able to fully immerse ourselves in the present moment. The absence of distractions and external noise truly enhanced the experience, allowing us to connect with the tea and ourselves on a much deeper level.
Eszter’s attention to detail was also commendable. From the precise movements she made while preparing the tea, to the gentle way she poured it into our cups, every step of the ceremony was executed with grace and intention. It was evident that she had a deep understanding and appreciation for the art of tea.
Overall, I cannot recommend Eszter’s tea ceremony enough. It is a truly transformative experience that offers a much-needed respite from the chaos of everyday life. If you’re looking for a moment of stillness and self-reflection, I urge you to give it a try. Eszter’s expertise and calming presence will undoubtedly leave you feeling refreshed and...
