YOGA SYNERGY DVD - Earth Sequence

Yoga Synergy DVD series is a set of 5 dynamic yoga sequences (Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether) created by Sydney based Yoga Masters: Simon Borg Olivier and Bianca Machliss of Yoga Synergy. All 5 sequences are designed so that the practice is both grounding and energising for the body whilst calming the mind. Each of the different elements (earth, water, fire, air and ether) balance each other to make a complete practice for the whole year round.

Over the last 15 years, Simon and Bianca have dedicated their time to studying both the traditional styles of yoga, and modern medical science. Both Simon and Bianca are qualified physiotherapists who through experimentation and practical experience of teaching thousands of students, have linked their two passions to create what they feel to be the most appropriate yoga practice for the Western body and mind. Synergy-style yoga contains the key elements and main themes of the teachings of Sri B.K.S. Iyengar, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and T. K. V. Desikachar.

Yoga Synergy DVDs are a practical tool for those who cannot make it to a class, presented in an educational manner, through intelligent and logical demonstrations. Each Yoga Synergy DVD contains over 3 hours of material including:
-An instructed Beginner Level sequence of exercises, which has both simple and complex versions of postures with Bianca and Simon.
-A led Intermediate Level sequence, which has both simple and complex versions of postures with Bianca and Simon and options for music.
-A spectacular display of the Advanced Level sequence of exercises with Simon
-A slide show of the sequence so that you can practice at your own speed.
-A set of Safety Instructions and Precautions that explain important aspects of any yoga practice and which are a valuable resource for both teachers and students.
-Bianca and Simon have developed a practice that is safe for the western body across all levels of fitness. It is suitable for those who have not previously exercised or have injuries, but is also challenging for professional dancers, elite athletes and advanced yoga practitioners. The Yoga Synergy style is a safe and meditative flowing practice, linking postures with the breath while maintaining an awareness of anatomical and physiological alignment.

Synergy-style yoga promotes increased strength, flexibility, cardiovascular fitness, reduced stress, increased relaxation of the body and mind, weight loss, better quality of sleep, reduced back/neck pain, and increased range of joint movement. The Yoga Synergy style sequences are an intelligent blend of the different styles of yoga - the end result being a flowing dance-like form of yoga, that through movement and awareness in the practice, generates energy, vitality and peace in the body and mind of the practitioner.

With Yoga Synergy, we aim to teach our students to work intelligently with their bodies, and to use the practice of yoga to enhance their lives, to bring energy and vitality, and to work at the level appropriate to their needs on each particular day, developing a responsive rather than an automated practice. In it's full advanced form the practice synergy-style yoga is as challenging and dynamic as any of the traditional yoga styles can get and in it's simplest and easiest form, it is as gentle and soft as one may need or desire – it is up to the individual how hard one works in a Yoga Synergy style class. The aim of every practice at Yoga Synergy is to enhance one's life by nurturing and generating the internal fire and life force that keeps us alive.

Yoga Synergy's Earth Sequence is available through Creative Vibes
