Gastón Dan
Certified Yoga Teacher
In 1999 I had my first approach to Yoga.
My first yoga classes took place with my mum. She taught yoga to the older people of my home town.
Since 2014 I study and practise yoga daily
That year I had my spiritual awakening during my first trip to India. I could find answers to a lot of questions I had. The answers were about the sense and purpose of life.
Since 2015 I am Certified Yoga Teacher
I studied in Yog Peeth, a traditional Hatha Yoga School in Rishikesh, India. There, I got my degree in TTC 200hs (teacher trainning certification) according to the Yoga Alliance of United States.
Since 2016 I have been studying Iyengar yoga
Searchinf for a solution to my chronical pain in my back, I found Iyengar Yoga. Since that moment, I decided to learn as the old method. It´s implied, to surrender myself to a guru guidance and teachings. That meant no certification or degree involved.
Since 2021 I teach yoga in Menorca
In this beautiful island I found my home. Because of the quietness and beauty of the island, I believe it is a perfect place for practising yoga.
