Michal Havkin discovered yoga after more than 30 years of dancing professionally and teaching Modern Dance in Israel and abroad. Her yoga practice consists of slow, gentle movements, connected to the breath and the space around us, and integrated with her extensive study of Buddhism and Feldenkrais technique. Michal has been studying and co-teaching with Sandra Sabatini for more than 18 years. "My yoga practice" says Michal, "is about undoing, letting go, releasing, opening and softening with the wish to be quiet, to listen."
