Tara & Veronika

Veronika and Tara live in the heart of nature in an alternative community in Southern Spain. It is a beautiful 10 minute walk through the forest to reach their homemade yurts. They have a strong connection with the earth, leading a low impact lifestyle, using only solar energy and collecting a lot of their own food. They are both passionate about yoga and rawfood and both live what they teach!

Veronika is a student of naturopathy, specialising in raw food, nutrition and cleansing. She has lived in a raw food community and done support work and raw food education on permaculture courses.

She has extensive experience with cleansing and fasting and is passionate about gourmet raw food preparation!

 

Tara ( also known as Esther) has been studying and exploring many different yoga styles for over 20 years in Europe and India. As a dedicated practitioner of Hatha yoga, she has a wide experience and great accomplishment of the yoga postures. She has been studying with prominent teachers in Ashtanga, Iyengar and Dynamic Yoga styles.

Drawing her inspiration from different schools, her classes are characterized by a fluid combination of profound relaxation together with a dynamic journey through the asanas (postures).

Working with the breath is integral to her practice and teaching and it is the synchronicity of focused breathing with every posture that guides the body to become softer and yet stronger and the mind to become alert and yet quiet.

 

Tara completed her 4-year training in Classical massage, Rebalancing and Shiatsu in 1994. She then furthered her studies in Thailand, learning Thai massage and later trained in Ayurvedic massage in India. Her practice integrates various aspects of these styles with a deep sense of intuition to create a refined treatment that nourishes the body, mind and soul.
