Intermediate IYENGAR yoga workshop with Gabriella Giubilaro (I) and Edwin Bryant (US/UK)

Event Description:

We are very happy to welcome Gabriella and Edwin back to Hungary and together for the very first time!

THEME: Samkhyakarika

Gabriella Giubilaro is widely known for her dynamic teaching of Iyengar yoga, her good humour, her attention to individual needs and clarity of her presentation. She believes in communicating the essence of the yoga postures through simple, but meaningful explanations that help her students discover the intelligence of their own bodies, challenging the students so that they can experience their maximum potential.

Gabriella began her yoga practice in 1973 in Florence, Italy. After receiving her Doctorate in physics at the University, Gabriella decided to dedicate her life to yoga in the tradition of B.K.S.Iyengar. She has been studying with the Iyengars yearly since 1983.

She holds a Junior Advanced certificate in this method. Since ’87 she has been teaching at her own Studio in Florence as well as workshops in Europe and the States.

Edwin Bryant received his Ph.D in Indic languages and Cultures from Columbia University. He taught Hinduism at Harvard University for three years, and is presently the professor of Hinduism at Rutgers University. He has received numerous awards and fellowships, published six books and authored a number of articles on Vedic history, yoga, and the Krishna tradition.

As a personal practitioner of yoga for 35 years, a number of them spent in India studying with traditional teachers, where he returns yearly, Edwin strives to combine academic scholarship and rigour with sensitivity towards traditional knowledge systems. In addition to his academic course load, Edwin currently teaches workshops on the Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, and Hindu Philosophy at yoga studios and teacher training courses throughout the country.
