Yoga Summer 
Festival
August 5th and 6th, 2023

Warming rays of sunshine on the skin, flowing movements in the body - nature, energetic moves, silence and community. On 5 and 6 August 2023, the "Yoga meets Weggis" Summer Festival will take place for the fifth time at Pavillon Weggis. A dreamlike location directly on the shore of Lake Lucerne, inspiring yoga classes and delicious soul food await you.On the first day, you will experience a fusion of dynamics and tranquillity. Discover new things through movement with Nataljia and Lars. Take time to be dynamic and present in the here and now, to listen to yourself in silence, to open up and stretch in body and mind. In the evening, let Bea take you on a shamanic journey as we sit around the fire and the sun sets over Weggis. Sleep under the majestic starry sky and start the new day with Nathalie's refreshing morning lesson. Afterwards, enjoy the delicious Boho brunch with a view over the glittering lake and the impressive mountains. The festival days can be booked as a combined ticket or individually.

Lars

August 05, 2023

11.00 a.m. - 1.00 p.m.

Sometimes when life gets stuck you need to look at things from a different perspective. Yoga & AcroYoga offer a unique opportunity to do exactly that. That’s one of many reasons why I am so passionate about teaching. My style of teaching is fluid and fun. Over the years I practiced many different styles of yoga and all have have influenced my teaching. Like with Eastern spirituality I try and integrate the different bits and pieces that have worked for me and leave what does not.

Movement & Connection Lars will guide you through a 2h yoga session. This workshop will take you through different parts of your body and through the room, the class will happen on the mat and off the mat. The class will include pranayama, meditation and asana for different levels. Stay curious for some surprises.

The lessons will be held in English.

Natalia

August 05, 2023

3:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.

Natalija's classes are nourishing, strong, precise, and accessible. She combines the benefits of powerful yoga, anatomical precision and mindfulness to help you feel strong, energized, balanced and grounded. Each session brings depth and clarity by incorporating Yin & Yang elements to create a safe and calm environment. Although the practice might be physically demanding, the aim of each lesson is to move beyond the asana practice and to connect a little bit deeper with your own essence, to find true harmony deep within. Her passion for yoga and consistent daily yoga practice since 2007 make her a humble and thoroughly authentic yoga practitioner and instructor. More info here www.nat.yoga

A Healing Journey - with Pranayama, Yin & Yang Join me on a powerful healing journey that combines Pranayama, Yin and Yang asanas, and a deeply relaxing and meditative Yoga Nidra. This 2-hour class is suitable for all levels, welcoming experienced students and beginners on a deep inner journey, to the heart of yoga through breath and mindfulness, for deep inner peace. What to expect: oBreathing exercises to ground ourselves: Experience breath as the underlying practice of everything else to come. oA yang practice based on classical Hatha Yoga oA carefully selected Yin Yoga sequence with deep myofascial meridian stretches that target the deep connective tissue and, through that, heal our emotions and organs, which are interconnected. oWe will conclude with a nourishing and healing Yoga Nidra practice that facilitates the healing process of our organs and promotes relaxation, inviting harmony and peace into our lives. This class is for anyone interested in finding mental, spiritual, and physical healing through a practice that teaches us how to create and cultivate resilience, so that we are prepared and centered, even when life is challenging. Whether you're an explorer or an enjoyer, all are welcome.

The lessons will be held in English.

Beatrice

August 05, 2023

8:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.

Bea is a yoga teacher, yoga therapist, trainer, breath coach, awakener and simply a human being, with everything that makes up being human. Yoga is her home. She owes a lot to it, as it feels, not only in this life. She allows herself more and more to live what is inside her: nature spirituality and shamanism are also strongly rooted in her. This most original form of holistic healing is getting more and more space in her way of working. The longer she works, the more she lets go of learned concepts and trusts her intuition more and more. This is reflected in her way of teaching and working with yoga. Intuitive, free and authentic. Sometimes very gentle, sometimes very wild, sometimes very calm and then again completely exuberant and sometimes - all together. After 15 years of teaching yoga, her focus is now changing to "circle work" and in 2023 completely new offers around yoga and spirituality living with Bea will emerge.

Fire Ceremony - Gratitude Bea leads us through a powerful fire ceremony. We celebrate gratitude and celebrate summer and abundance together. The time of the reaper is dawning and teaches us the great laws of giving and taking, letting go and accepting, abundance, fertility and gratitude. Let yourself be surprised.

The lessons will be held in German.

09.00 - 11.00 a.m.

Nathalie is an eRYT-500 yoga teacher & sense fluencer. As a former ballet dancer, she knows what it means to be disciplined - but she only discovered unconditional love for herself in the course of her now 10-year yoga practice. On her travels she has been inspiring & teaching people from all over the world for years, leading yoga teacher trainings & retreats in Europe and India. In addition to a clear focus on anatomical foundations, she places great emphasis on intelligent sequencing when creating her classes. Whether it's a fiery vinyasa class, creative brain drill flows or soul-soothing yin sessions, her classes are guaranteed to leave you feeling good. Her heartfelt mission is for you to realise how wonderful you already are. It's not about worse or better - you are you for a reason and with her yoga sessions she wants to awaken the burning passion for yourself within you. Close your eyes, open your heart. Be there and take the leap into the unknown. You are only one yoga session away from feeling how wonderful you are!

Pure Yoy - Feel good Vinyasa Flow No matter how you started the day - this flow brings good mood, laughter and love of life. Move and feel your whole body consciously from head to toe. Get ready for creative flows around the mat, pure joy and a wonderfully good body feeling. This yoga session is for anyone who wants to consciously experience the moment and grow beyond themselves. Yogis of any practice level are welcome.
