Morning Hatha Vinyasa Flows
Floripa Yoga, Sicily, 2024
An energizing morning practices blending Hatha and Vinyasa yoga. We begin slowly, waking the body with breath-led movement, and gradually build into a flowing sequence that leaves you centered, refreshed, and ready for the day.
In the golden light of the Sicilian autumn, I had the joy of guiding morning Vinyasa Hatha flows at Floripa Yoga & Retreat Center. Each day began with the sound of the sea in the distance, the air fresh and kissed by the sun, inviting everyone to rise slowly and meet the day with presence.
Our practice opened with grounding breathwork, inviting clarity and focus. From there, we moved through a steady, energizing flow — blending the structure and alignment of Hatha with the graceful rhythm of Vinyasa. Asanas unfolded like a dance: strong standing poses to awaken vitality, gentle backbends to open the heart, and balancing shapes to root us into the earth.
Every session ended in stillness, with the warm Sicilian sun on our skin and the soft sound of waves nearby, allowing the practice to settle deeply within.
These mornings were more than just movement — they were rituals of connection: to breath, to body, and to the simple beauty of autumn in Sicily.
