Practice develops through continuity. Study changes the way we observe, understand and experience what we do. Yet questions inevitably emerge. At times, we need to examine a specific difficulty, reconsider an established approach or explore how general principles may apply to our own practice and teaching.

Guided Journey includes the complete Practice + Theory Membership, together with regular opportunities for direct exchange with Chiara in a small and committed group.

PRACTICE

• Access to two weekly live-streamed Iyengar® Yoga classes—Intermediate Grounding and In-Depth Advanced—according to the calendar of the Iyengar Yoga Institute Milano.
• Access to the complete growing on-demand Recordings Library, for as long as your Membership remains active—including classes recorded before you joined.
• Access to the complete Thematic Practice Library.
• New Practice content as it is released.

THEORY

• All Yoga Unfolded Video Series
• All Yoga UnfoldedPodcasts
• All Yoga Unfolded Papers and illustrated practice sequences
• New Theory content exploring Yoga philosophy, Sanskrit, Yoga Studies, physiology, neuroscience and movement anatomy

GUIDED JOURNEY

Weekly interactive live sessions (+ replay) with Chiara lasting approximately 60–90 minutes and dedicated to questions arising from personal practice and teaching, according to the calendar of the Iyengar Yoga Institute Milano (minimum 30 sessions from the start of the Guided Journey program).

The sessions follow four recurring topics:

• Personal Practice: Getting Unstuck
• Props in Practice: Where, When, How—and Why?
• Anatomy in Practice: Understanding the Body
• Yoga Sūtra: Chanting & Study

Members are invited to submit their questions in advance, allowing each meeting to develop around the concrete interests and needs of the group. More topics may be included to meet the needs of the group. The duration of each meeting may vary according to its format and the questions submitted.

Guided Journey is limited to a small group of no more than 20 members.

VISITING PRACTICE WEEK

After six consecutive months of Guided Journey Membership, you will have the opportunity to spend one week practising in person at the Iyengar Yoga Institute Milano.

Depending on the Institute’s calendar, you may join selected regular classes appropriate to your level or participate in a dedicated Visiting Week programme. The experience also includes an individual meeting with Chiara to reflect on your practice, teaching or questions.

The Visiting Week is available once every twelve months, by advance booking and subject to availability. Travel, accommodation, meals, workshops and special events are not included.

Guided Journey is for experienced practitioners and teachers who wish to bring Practice+Theory into an ongoing interactive guided process of observation, questioning and shared investigation.

Places are limited. Membership is subject to availability.
