The teacher
Rossella Baroncini was born and lives in Florence where she trained as a
yoga teacher. She has been teaching classes, workshops and private lessons
since 1987. Rossella is a direct long time student of Vanda Scaravelli
(author of Awakening the Spine, 1991). She started to study with her in 1983
at the age of 26 having individual lessons until 1999. Rossella is
continuing to explore the teaching she has received, from many years of
practice and relationship with Vanda, maintaining her simplicity and
freedom.
The workshop
This
workshop is designed for already experienced yoga practitioners (with
at least two years regular practice). Yoga teachers and students that
have already attended previous Rossella’s workshops are welcome
too. There will be 5 hours of yoga every day, 3 hours in the early
morning, and 2 hours before dinner. One afternoon will be kept free to
explore the island.”Breathing and silence are our Arianna’s
thread in this workshop: breathing puts us in that innocent state of
silence in which even a miracle can happen.
We will invite silence to remain with us during the days as a
nourishing ground for creativity, intuition and true communication.
Participants can expect to have two days of full silence during the
week.

everything must have a price, they feel that some forms of learning cannot be
measured solely in money terms. However, in order to continue running
courses in the future in the same spirit, we need to make sure that
participants understand that what is being offered is not just a 'cheap' option.
Except in exceptional circumstances, the donation should be proportionate to
the amount of teaching hours on the course, and related to the normal price
of a yoga class (in
