Michelle is the best yoga teacher ever, thanks to her I've learnt so many things about Hatha yoga, how to move and take care of my body (it is a long journey), and how to free my mind from all the noise that everyone of us tends to make (well, that is the real challenge...). The other teachers as well are special people. So, a short story long, I am very grateful that I've found the Centre! And I am happy to invite anyone who is curious to just come and see for...
