Ashtanga Yoga: Dany Sa Interview

December 25, 2019

While I was in Greece recently, I had great fun interviewing Brasilian Ashtanga Yoga teacher Dany Sa. We talk about her journey into yoga, mental challenges, how she approaches her own practice and deals with times of low energy or stress. We have tremendous pleasure in being able to offer an Ashtanga Course with Dany Sa and Sofia Xirotyri on the Loveyogaanatomy Website. You can try out a free lesson and find out more about the course here: https://www.loveyogaanatomy.com/courses/ashtanga-with-dany-and-sofia/
