method
PRAKTIKA method is based on the Classical Pilates Mat Series and Vinyasa Yoga.
A solid and well balanced physical training develops flexibility, mobility, strength and balance. While a focus on breathing lends itself to stabilizing the nervous system.
The variations shown for each movement enable everyone to either stay within their comfort zone, or push for more of a challenge. This means that both complete beginners and those with a firm experience will enjoy the benefits.
The classes are given in a small group 4-12 people, which allows a personal approach to every participant.
Regular practice will make you feel energized strong and flexible, allowing to flow freely through daily life. A delicious cocktail of Pilates and Yoga to boost you in every way.
If you are interested in trying classes with PRAKTIKA, please consult the schedule in the classes section of the website.

What is Well-being
This is definitely a complex question...
A notion of being a healthy person is based on FIVE staples: Nutrition, Movement, Sleep, Stress Management and Social Connections. Healthy life is also an exciting journey, not a goal or a static point.
During the coaching process, we establish good eating habits, improve the quality of sleep, balance mental health and integrate more movement to softly transition to a new healthy lifestyle.
