BACK TO BASICS

When the Ancient Greek discovered the Yogis in India, they didn’t find athletes preoccupied by their look: they found naked people practising a profound and meaningful spirituality. That’s the Yoga we practice at Casa Pantha.

Going back to the essence of things, to the very core that represents the foundations of any school of yoga and spiritual belief, is a profound healing experience. Yoga is not just a physical fitness workout, but a science reaching every aspect of your life, from your physical health to your mental well-being. It’s a path of discovery, of enlightenment, that doesn’t know shortcuts. Therefore, I teach only what I have practised and discovered by research & experience, instead of imposing one particular school or an other (which are mere interpretations of someone else perspectives, sometimes far from the original principles).

When I came across Krishnamurti, it was like discovering the Holy Grail. Do you remember, as a kid in front of a paper full of dots and numbers, the excitement you felt as you connect them to find out what they represent? Reading Krishnamurti gave me the same kind of emotion; It was like finally, someone was speaking the same language, putting into words and intelligible sentences the chaotic dialogues conversing in my head. He gave me structure, universality. But more than that, his teachings confirmed something very important: no matter how many people will tell you their way is The Way, just because they were told “this is The Way”, if you can’t question it, if it’s not universal, applying to everyone, but bound to a system, a culture, or a any kind of dogma, then, this is not the way.

“To define yourself is to limit yourself, which is the opposite of a free mind”

How & what I teach today is the result of this awareness, a holistic approach of life, that is reflected in my daily life. My “role” is to guide you, to give you the tools and support to find your own truth. Therefore, I will never tell you what to think but hopefully help you figuring out who you really are, once conditionings, personal trauma outcomes and other limitations are out of your way. Even a simple yoga class can become part of a powerful healing journey, a tool to reflect, learn, and evolve.

The concept behind Casa Pantha is designed to help you reconnect more deeply with yourself: patio and terrace are home to a lush tropical jungle, intentionally exuberant to slow you down, giving you the opportunity to look around, to relax into the moment, and remember that we are all part of Nature. The aromatic plants, as you brush-pass them, will offer their fragrance, and later, their flavour and medicinal properties. If the weather is too hot or too cool to enjoy the outdoor, the ground floor is a lounge-like area, ideal to relax, practice yoga, receive a massage, meditate, or enjoy a relaxing moment in front of a nature inspired aquarium.

Whether you come just on vacation, for a workshop, a retreat or a therapy treatment, you will be staying in the accommodation is on the first floor, a flat where you have total privacy from the rest of the house.
