Why practice yoga
The practice of yoga serves as a backdrop for the transformation of the body, mind and personality. Through various techniques, we create a space for observing mental processes and this is the door to transcending not only the roles to which we often attribute our true identity, but also to establishing values that will serve as a guide for our day-to-day life off the mat. In this understanding and through consistent practice, our relationship with ourselves and others is transformed and transmuted.
Booking classes
I offer fixed timetables, as well as private lessons that can be arranged according to the student's availability. Haṭha Yoga classes last 90 minutes and are adapted according to the student's practice experience. Classes are online or in person if you live in the Algarve and can travel to the practice space.
Inês Ritto
I began my journey into yoga in 2005.
In 2007, I started taking classes with Cátia Manuel and in 2008 with Miguel Homem, a teacher with whom I also began studying Vedānta.
In 2010 I finished the first training module with Pedro Kupfer, and I started teaching Yoga regularly in 2011 in Slovenia, where I lived for around 4 years.
After returning to Portugal, this time to the Algarve where I currently live, I continued studying Vedānta and taking classes in traditional Indian prayers and, later, Vedic chanting with Professor Paulo Abreu Vieira, also completing module II of Yoga instructor training with Pedro Kupfer in 2019.
I regularly teach private yoga classes and traditional Indian prayers in person and online, and I collaborate with the Arshavidya Center with online classes for the Center’s students and also on retreats.
I consider continuous study to be important, as well as being in contact with and learning from Teachers within the Vedic tradition.
In this sense, I am grateful for everything that the teachers and masters I have had the opportunity to learn from have taught me.
I continue the regular study of Vedic chanting and Vedānta with Professor Paulo Vieira, who has been a continuous inspiration in the development of my path.
Yoga, ancient indian prayers and Vedic chanting
In addition to Haṭha Yoga classes, there are also classes in Vedic chanting and traditional Indian prayers.
