PORTRAITS
Flavio, benevolent guidance!
We're delighted to announce the launch of a brand new feature in our newsletter: "Portrait of the Month". Our aim is to highlight and celebrate the exceptional people who make Harmony such a unique and thriving place, and each month we'll share with you a detailed portrait of one of our dedicated contributors, highlighting their journey, their achievements and what makes them unique. We firmly believe that behind every success there is an inspiring person, and we look forward to introducing you to the faces that help make our company shine. We begin this series with Flavio, a yoga teacher who has made an outstanding contribution to our team for many years.
Hi everyone, my name is Flavio, I'm originally from the canton of Ticino, Lugano and Barcelona in Spain.
I've been living the yoga experience for several years now. In particular, I discovered India and its traditions at the age of 10.
It was after a skiing accident, which prevented me from continuing to practice my favorite sport, running, that I turned assiduously to yoga...and haven't let go since.
This discipline enabled me to understand that I could reach a state of total calm, where the mind is freed from all the frenzy of thoughts and you can enter a meditative state of open awareness.
What's my background?
Yoga teacher with many years' experience of teaching this discipline
Numerous training courses between Geneva and Barcelona, all certified by Yoga Alliance, notably in Ashtanga, Atha, Iyengar, Yin, Vinyasa, Prana Yama.
Active in the field of yoga and co-founder of a community of over a hundred yoga teachers, mainly based in Spain, Flavio promotes exchanges, events and volunteer work to raise funds for charity.
