“I was able to appreciate his preparation, his positive energy, and above all his great humility and empathy”

I met Daniele during a workshop in Catania. I liked that experience so much that I invited it to be repeated for my students, colleagues, and friends. And so twice I was able to appreciate his preparation, his positive energy, and above all his great humility and empathy.

“…he expertly guided us into a state of deep relaxation, a truly fantastic and restorative experience”

I attended a workshop by Daniele at the Isvara Yoga studio in Bologna.
He held a very interesting lesson on yogic anatomy in which he was able to explain complex concepts promptly, making them accessible even to those like me who are just entering the vast world of yogic tradition. Afterward, we practiced yoga nidra and he expertly guided us into a state of deep relaxation, a truly fantastic and restorative experience.

“a practice tailored to needs/wants”

Fantastic yoga instructor! He was able to recognise strengths and weaknesses and create a practice tailored to needs/wants within our class. I really feel like I improved a lot. We were very lucky to have him as our instructor for almost a year and were very sad when we had to do our last class (as we were moving…)

“between physical practice, theoretical talks, relaxation, breathing, meditation, sounds… it was a real surprise!!”

I participated in the two-day workshop that Daniele Giannotta held in Catania last weekend. Honestly, I approached out of curiosity even if I was a little skeptical about some aspects…what can I say, I was very impressed by Daniele’s freshness and contagious positive energy, which made the time fly by. Lots of stuff to explore together, new paths… Between physical practice, theoretical talks, relaxation, breathing, meditation, sounds… it was a real surprise!! It contains all the energy that Daniele cultivates while traveling the world on his two wheels…  There are infinite possibilities of feeling good and infinite things that we can be lucky enough to encounter and taste! Don’t miss the opportunity to give yourself time, time for yourself 🙏 heartfelt thanks to Daniele…

I practiced with Daniele during a two-day workshop and it was a very formative, humanly unique experience from which I derived considerable physical and mental benefits. The teacher is very clear in his presentation and is a person with a positive and overwhelming energy. Highly recommended ❤

What is Yoga Nidra:

Yoga nidra is a form of meditation performed while lying supine in savasana. Deep relaxation, conscious sleep, withdrawal of the senses, experience of opposites, exploration of the subconscious, union with bliss… Yoga Nidra is all this and much more. The best way to understand is to try it!

What is Kundalini tantra:

Yoga means union, and union is the ultimate goal of yoga. Union between the self and the universe, between the masculine and the feminine, between kundalini Shakti and Shiva in the crown chakra.

Kundalini is a concept found in many ancestral cultures, the universal feminine energy dormant within us, coiled near the tailbone.

Kundalini tantra, also known as Kriya yoga, is the oldest form of yoga, described in the Vedas and Upanishads, and transmitted orally to the present day by Himalayan mystics.

A mix of dynamic physical practices, breathing, mantra, mudra and meditation, combined together in sequences known as kriyas. It is an intense form of yoga that works on a deep level, towards higher states of consciousness.
