Episode Description

There is so much to talk about when it comes to what Yoga is in its essence and how it shapes our being.

An inspiring discussion with Alex in which you get to know about Alex’s journey and calling to start Yoga many years ago as a way to deal with an incident that happened with him on one of his military flights.
Alex has been a military yogi who eventually dedicated his life to teaching and reminding others that Yoga is beyond the postures and performance. He brings his connection with the eastern roots of Yoga into his practice, his daily life and with his attendees.

Yoga is simple”, he says, and this explains a lot!

Recently, Alex has been elected as the president of the Helenic Yoga Association in Athens and with the board members, the whole “old school” team is intending to bring the focus back on the essence of yoga by going back to the roots.
Indian tradition meeting with Greek tradition!
