Fuerteventura, my new home?

Fuerteventura, and the good energy

I am starting my blog with this experience I'm having now in Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands. It's three months that I'm here. I love this place. Amazing vibes and good and happy people. Surf, sun, sailing, good food and a lot of yoga and meditation. I needed that after I was living in Milan for the past 3 years. It is completely different.  I started my "CITY DETOX" here, not just eating a lot of organic veggies and fruits, but mental detox. And really I feel that I changed, something inside changed, and I can see it also in my yoga practice, I'm doing a lot of poses that I could not do before. Even simple ones, like headstand (I am really strong, so for me, it should be an easy one :). Before I couldn't even stay in headstand for a second cause I felt dizzy, and now it feels so comfortable. 

So let's start with some review about classes of yoga on the island. If you are on the island for a vacation you can come to try each of these classes. It is not easy to find information on the web, so that's why I am here for.

Joan Iyengar, Corralejo

For all the Iyengar yoga lovers... this one is a great place, Joan is an amazing teacher, really careful about the positions. U can try a class for free, it on the last floor of a nice building close to the harbor. nice view. Nice studio with wood floor. Joan explains everything in Spanish, so if u never tried its better to go to a place where they speak English during the class. There are not many people usually,

u should call before to see if there is a place. There is all the equipment.

I loved it!!! recommended

It's yoga (English), Corralejo

Nice studio, but could be much better. The style is Ashtanga and vinyasa. They call it Rocket. The possibility of trying is to buy 3 classes which cost 20 euro. They have classes every day in the morning and in the evening, and also a free class in the beach on Wednesday, when u can come and join but its a silence class.

I've been in 2 class, one was OK but it was just one hour and didn't like so much the teacher, The second on Sunday morning was ashtanga primary series which I love, but the studio is too small so the teacher didn't have a place for her and couldn't show all the positions (u can forget some and a lot of the people don't know all of them). The teacher also doesn't correct so much, but again too many people. The studio is nice but without a view. the bathroom inside the yoga space :/... they offered some snacks and tea in a small living area. The class in English :)

There is also teacher training and a nice yoga outfits to buy in the studio.

Papagayo Fitness Center (spanish)

The best class I tried on the island. The teacher really good and u have a few types of yoga. Hatha, Ying, Vinyasa. A lot of options during the day. You can check the schedual in the fb page. The class is in spanish and there are a lot of cute surfers guys. More men the women. The teacher always the same and she is really nice,  she corrects a lot. The studio is not nice, and u have spinning bicycle all around. Outside to the place u have the gym and supermarket. U can come to try for free and for a month it is only 35 euro.
