Ashtanga Yoga Tree

Experiência fantástica: A Lisbona per le vacanze Natalizie con una grande voglia di praticare Ashtanga….dopo svariate ricerche abbiamo finalmente trovato aperta la Shala di Gonçalo, della Shala yoga tree, che dire esperienza meravigliosa, Gonçalo ci ha accolti alle 7 del mattino in un ambiente spirituale con una energia bellissima, la pratica è stata seguita con aggiustamenti ricchi di sapienza, con una conoscenza profonda della disciplina. Gonçalo non solo ha avuto un occhio vigile durante tutta la pratica ma è stato utile nei preziosi suggerimenti. Mi sono sentita accolta e a mio agio. Sicuramente, dovessi ritrovarmi nei paraggi, mi piacerebbe ripetere la esperienza! Lo consiglio vivamente Debora e Michele

Experiência fantástica: Gonçalo is a wonderful Ashtanga teacher. He’s very patient and gentle, and he works with students of all levels. Also his space is so beautiful and clean, filled with natural light. His classes fill but the studio is spacious, totaling three levels. I’m a yoga teacher from the US, and I was so happy to find an Authorized teacher during my time in Lisbon.

Experiência fantástica: Sou aluna no Ashtanga Yoga Tree há 1 ano. Sinto que a minha prática evoluí todos os dias com as orientações do Gonçalo. O Gonçalo é autorizado level 2. É um professor muito atento, muito acessível e de fácil comunicação, que ensina a prática, assente na integridade do asana, observando cada corpo e adaptando individualmente. Valorizo particularmente: O respeito pela tradição e a generosidade na forma como o Gonçalo nos passa o seu vasto conhecimento de 20 anos de prática. O Shala é um espaço de bastante bom gosto, muito espaçoso e com muita luz natural. Recomendo muito!

Experiência fantástica: Gonçalo has been my yoga teacher since 3 years ago and I can't imagine going anywhere else in Lisbon. He is gentle, patient and very knowledgeable in Ashtanga and physio health. Most importantly Gonçalo has genuine concerns for students' growth and wellbeing. Many times he adjusted my yoga poses while I was recovering from physical injuries. I also appreciate the flexibility of this true Mysore style Ashtanga yoga school, where both self-paced and group-led practices are offered to suit individual preferences.

Experiência fantástica: Ashtanga Yoga Tree is shala at it's finest. Wide space for yoga practice with lots of natural light, beautifully, traditionally decorated. I enjoyed joining AYT group as a drop-in student during our 2-weeks stay in Lisbon. The energy of the shala and it's comunity is inviting, immersed, calm, the group is open both for begginers and long term - advanced practicioners. Gonçalo is Mysore-authorised teacher with over 20 years of experience in ashtanga yoga. He shares his knowledge in theory and practice of yoga, both with his great insight in physiology and nerves system - in such a subtle way, with ease, uncommon kindness and humbleness. Gonçalo made me aware of some aspects of my asana practice, that none of great teachers I had been happy to meet so far paid ever attention to. His adjustments and advices I took back home have had a great, opening and healing effect on my practice. Can't wait to visit AYT again

Experiência fantástica: Comecei a praticar no Ashtanga Yoga Tree em 2017, sem ter qualquer experiência de yoga, em péssima forma física … e com 45 anos. Nada disto foi um problema. O Gonçalo guiou-me pelas várias etapas e ajudou-me a ultrapassar os desafios físicos das posturas, mas também a desenvolver a espiritualidade própria do yoga. É um professor de grande sensibilidade, que tenta compreender os nossos bloqueios e nos incentiva a sermos autónomos.

Experiência fantástica: Finding Gonçalo in Lisbon has been a gift. He is one of the deepest teachers I have come across on the path of yoga. He has a command of both mechanical and yogic anatomy that allows him to offer precise and comprehensive explanations for every aspect of every pose. He is generous in his time and provides a constant gentle prod taking you deeper into your practice. He empowers his students in both mind and body. A superb and humble instructor. Thank you Gonçalo.

Experiência fantástica: Apesar de já ser praticamente há muitos anos, começar a praticar com o Gonçalo deu-me uma nova perspectiva da minha prática, mais profunda e intensa. Reaprendi muitas posturas e também evolui na prática como nunca tinha evoluido antes. O Ashtanga Yoga Tree é o espaço ideal para os amantes do Ashtanga yoga.

Experiência fantástica: I practiced at Asthanga Yoga Tree as a drop-in student several times during my last stay in Lisbon. Gonçalo is an amazing, very experienced teacher. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the practice (both physical and spiritual) and quickly identified patterns in my body that required some work. His adjustments helped me to tap into the essence of the postures. I left each class with a greater insight about the practice and my body. The shala is beautifully decorated and Gonçalo holds a safe space where you are free to experiment with your practice. I highly recommend this place, will certainly be back! Obrigada Gonçalo :)

Experiência fantástica: Great experience practising with Gonçalo at ashtanga yoga tree! If you are in Lisbon and want to practice ashtanga I recommend coming here. Gonçalo has been very inspirational to me and is a great teacher! Thank you for the experience

Experiência fantástica: A great Shala to learn the traditional Method of Ashtanga Yoga with a very experienced and knowledgeable teacher. I can highly recommend it!

Experiência fantástica: Gonçalo is an attentive and knowledgeable teacher. I joined for one class during my short visit and learned so much about recurring challenges with my body. I wish I stayed in Lisbon longer so I could continue to work with Gonçalo on this, but I'll definitely come back. For now I have incorporated learnings from him in my self-practice, and it has helped me become more aware of patterns in my body and mind.

Experiência fantástica: It was a great experience to practice at the Ashtanga Yoga Tree Shala as a drop in student. Gonçalo’s calm and warm presence made me feel welcomed immediately. He shared so much of his knowledge even during this one session that left me truly grateful and humbled. I would wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful shala to Ashtanga practitioners at any levels. Thank you

Experiência fantástica: Ashtanga Yoga Tree es la shala que necesitas si eres practicante de Ashtanga Yoga según el método tradicional. Y si quieres adentrarte en este estilo, Gonçalo es el guía adecuado. Compartirá contigo su amplio conocimiento y adecuará la práctica a tus necesidades personales. Me llevo grandes consejos para mí práctica personal! Practicar allí ha sido una muy grata experiencia.

Experiência fantástica: The place to go to deepen your Ashtanga practice. Goncalo provides very thorough, in-depth guidance. Receive guidance from someone who is a certified Intermediate Series teacher. Fantastic opportunity for committed practitioners.

Experiência fantástica: Best Ashtanga teacher in Lisbon! Gonçalo is super experienced in traditional ashtanga and provides guidance with kindness! The Shala is also very spacious and beautiful. Great environment, with high energy!

Experiência fantástica: This is Lynne from North Carolina USA. Every year I travel around world looking for authorized teachers to practice with. Last winter, I studied under Goncalo for three months, I have to say that from all things considered, he is the best teacher among the six I learned with. He is knowledgeable, patient, always willing to help with a selfless warm heart. If you practice Mysore, if you are in Lisbon, I highly recommend you to try his classes, you’ll be glad that you made good decision.

Experiência fantástica: I’ve been practicing Ashtanga Yoga for 13 years and practiced with Goncalo for the last 3. I’ve never learned and evolved so much, all due to him being such a dedicated and outstanding expert. Gonçalo knows about yogic anatomy and adjusts like no one I’ve ever practiced with. I am very grateful to have Gonçalo as my teacher

Experiência fantástica: A experiência do Gonçalo faz muita diferença no acompanhamento da prática. Para quem quer mergulhar de forma saudável e consciente do corpo, no ashtanga yoga e retirar os seus benefícios.

Experiência fantástica: The shala truly authentic ashtanga environment. Gonçalo provides an in-depth knowledge of anatomy and alignment within the ashtanga practice. Highly recommended.

Experiência fantástica: Me ha gustado mucho practicar con Gonzalo durante mi corta estadía en Lisboa, me quedo con una buena sensación. Espero regresar pronto

Experiência fantástica: Una scuola che frequento dal 2015 e che mi ha fatto scoprire e amare la pratica di ashtanga yoga. Consiglio vivamente a tutti gli amanti di questo genere di pratica e a chi vuole iniziare a seguire questo cammino meraviglioso! L'accompagnamento personalizzato e la passione degli istruttori oltre che alla professionalità e preparazione fanno si che ogni lezione sia una nuova scoperta.

Experiência fantástica: Um professor muito atento e dedicado aos alunos mais e menos experientes . As aulas decorrem num ambiente luminoso e saudável onde os ensinamentos da pratica são transmitidos ao " ritmo da respiração " A escola de Ashtanga Yoga de Lisboa.

Experiência fantástica: Ambiente super acolhedor e ajustes essenciais para minha evolução no Ashtanga. Espero voltar em breve! Muito obrigada Gonçalo
