YOGA and PILATES in OKPO, South Korea

Welcome to the the SunPower Yoga and Pilates websie - the only yoga and pilates taught in English in Okpo, South Korea.

 

SUNPOWER YOGA is based on Ashtanga-Vinyasa first, second and third series, combined with Iyengar and Shivananda yoga styles and elements of pilates. SuryaSakti practice aims to train your body and through that educate your heart, mind and soul. We attempt to integrate physical, psychological and spiritual aspects of yoga practices.

ASHTANGA-VINYASA YOGA first and second series
Astanga means 'eight limbs' and is described by the great Indian sage Patanjali in the Yoga Sutras, written 2,300 years ago, as the 8-step path to true yoga (union of body, mind & soul).

The third step, ASANA (postures), is the foundation that purifies body and mind. By practicing correct Vinyasa (breathing movement system), the body produces an intense internal heat and purifying sweat that detoxifies muscles and organs.

The result is improved circulation, a light and strong body and a calm mind. The powerful results have Astanga communities growing in most major cities around the world and is stirring media attention through endorsements from practitioners like Madonna, Sting and Willem DaFoe.

PILATES classes are also offered for strengthening and better coordination of the body. Pilates practice best compliments yoga and is a key element for proper posture and strong and healthy back.
