The expert's opinion

No prior yoga experience is required. You simply need to have practiced a little and be willing to explore further.

The sessions are gentle, accessible and adapted to each person's pace.

The hiking level is suitable for people of moderate ability who wish to experience a challenging but quite affordable trek, supported by breath, presence and yoga.
