At the age of 12, I saw a woman posing on a magazine cover. She looked so strong and healthy that I wanted to be like her! I read that her secret was yoga, and I started practicing some postures before school. From then on, I was attracted to everything related to yoga and enjoyed my secret practice in the mornings.

A few years later, I went to India to learn from a teacher. By then, my main practice was a vinyasa series, but alongside vinyasa, ashtanga was also part of my training. After the time spent there, I was happy to return with more knowledge, but I didn't understand why ashtanga was so popular. From the first day, I didn't like having to do the same thing all the time.

At that time, I was studying in Paris and wanted to find a teacher there as well. I gave ashtanga another chance because I arrived on exactly the first day when Gibran Gonzales started the Mysore program at the Jivamukti studio. I immediately liked his traditional strict teaching style. After the first practice, I felt something I hadn't experienced before and curiously followed this new path.

Yin has become part of my practice, I really love the silence and slowing down, while it also helps with my ashtanga challenges.

Visszatértem Budapestre gyógytornát tanulni és annak ellenére, hogy leginkább a magányban való gyakorlást választom, István mindig szívesen fogad és olyan odaadással és tudással tanít, ami napjainkban ritka.
