Empower your Core: a Workshop for Strength and Stability
Sunday 20 july 09:30 - 11:30
Join us for a dynamic and empowering yoga workshop dedicated to building core strength from the inside out. In this focused session, we will explore how the core—not just the abdominals, but the deep muscles of the pelvis, lower back, hips, and trunk—serves as the foundation for balance, stability, and efficient movement in your yoga practice and daily life.
Through mindful movement, breathwork, and intelligently sequenced asanas, you’ll learn how to activate and engage your core in a way that supports your entire body. Expect a mix of targeted strength-building exercises, flowing sequences, and hands-on techniques to deepen your awareness and control.
In this workshop, you will:
- Learn how core strength enhances alignment, balance, and injury prevention.
- Explore asanas that develop strength and stability, from foundational poses to more advanced transitions.
- Experience breath-led movement to connect core engagement with pranayama.
- Leave with tools and sequences to integrate core work into your regular practice
Who is this for?
All levels are welcome—from beginners seeking a stronger foundation to seasoned practitioners wanting to refine their core awareness.
Empower your practice from the center. Your core is more than muscles—it’s your power source. Let’s tap into it together!
Style: Ashtanga-led
Ashtanga vinyasa is a hatha yoga practice transmitted to Pattabhi Jois from the yoga master Krishnamacharya. It is for students seeking an invigorating approach that purifies, stimulates and energizes. It consists of postures practiced in a fluid rhythm with a concentrated breath, steady gaze, and internal contractions to direct vital energy. Due to the dynamic nature of this practice, one feels completely energized and purified in each cell of the body and also in the mind. Go to the Ashtanga-led page.
Teacher: Nathalie Colavitti Blay
Nathalie became interested in yoga through a documentary of a young girl who explained with lucidity and breathtaking calm how yoga helped her recover from a severe childhood trauma. That spark brought Nathalie to Iyengar yoga classes in 2006 before moving on to vinyasa and thereafter Ashtanga vinyasa whose energizing and soothing practices fascinated her. She also included into her personal practice the shat kriyas - purification techniques that are highly effective for digestive problems, stress and insomnia.
In 2016, she graduated La Source’s 300-hour teacher training program. At the request of her colleagues, she gives yoga classes at work. At the same time, she continues her own practice and has attended workshops by senior Ashtanga teachers like Mark Darby, Danny Paradise, Gregor Maehle, Laruga Glaser, Kathy Cooper and Doug Keller.
She wishes to share the knowledge acquired and to continue to explore that vast world called yoga.
