Happy birthday Shakti! 19 years ago we opened our humble studio to spread Iyengar yoga in Athens! 17 years later we moved to Rhodes, to spread BKS Iyengar's wisdom! Grateful to Guruji, his lineage and his inspiring teachers all over the world who keep the flame in our hearts! And last but not least, eternally grateful to our amazing students who keep teaching us every day! Many many happy returns!🙏🎈♥️

🌿 The body is our temple.
Yoga teaches us to listen, to find balance, and to return to ourselves.

📍 At ArtParkRhodes, we create a space where breath flows into movement, and the mind finds stillness. Iyengar Yoga with Haris Lyroni helps strengthen the body, align posture, and recharge every cell with energy.

Here there is no rush — only deep self-work and the inspiration of yoga, nature, and art.

✨ Join us on this journey.

Finding stillness in motion.
The world fades, the breath deepens, and the body remembers its natural rhythm.
This is where practice becomes presence — surrounded by nature, art, and the quiet beauty of Rhodes.
A moment, a breath, a lifetime in between. 🌿✨

Strength, Stillness & Precision 🧘‍♀️
Iyengar Yoga isn’t just a practice — it’s a profound journey into the alignment of body, breath, and awareness!

Using props like chairs, blocks, bricks, belts and blankets we learn to enter each pose with integrity and to stay longer, in order to attain the benefits and deeper effects of each asana.

This isn’t about performance.!

It’s about being present!

It’s about creating space in the body and clarity in the mind!

It’s about restoring balance — and remembering who you are beneath the “noise”...

✨ If you’ve been craving grounding, strength, and a deeper connection to your practice, stay tuned. Our upcoming retreat will bring these teachings to life in the most beautiful, nurturing setting. 🌿

Your body exists in the past and your mind exists in the future. In yoga, they come together in the present

🍂 Autumn Iyengar Yoga Retreat in Rhodes
October 25–28, 2025 | The Art Park

Dear friends,
I’m so happy to invite you to pause with me this October — to move, breathe, and reconnect in the heart of nature.

We’ll gather once again in the magical Art Park, surrounded by forest, sculptures, sunlight, and stillness. Four days of Iyengar yoga, inspiration, and deep rest — in the golden rhythm of autumn.

If this resonates with you, reach out. The early bird flies away August 15, and spaces are limited.

With love and light,
🙏
Haris

🧘‍♀️ Rooted in strength, lifted by breath.

At Shakti Yoga Studio we believe balance isn’t something you just find — it’s something you remember.

Every inversion is a gentle rebellion: a reminder that perspective is everything, and your body is wiser than you think.

Come turn your world upside down with an innovative yoga practice at the Art Park Rhodes. 🌿✨

📍 Book your class and come back to your centre.

🍁 Autumn is calling
A gentle reminder that the early bird for my Autumn Yoga Retreat at the magical Art Park flies away on August 15.
If your heart longs for presence, stillness, and golden light, this is your sign to join us.

A Sirsasana variation for the hot summer days! Try it against the wall with a chair to help create space between each vertebra prior to getting into the asana. Maintain the vertebral extension by working the arms and legs and lifting against gravity.

Summer Solstice, a sacred pause in the turning of the earth! When the sun lingers at its highest point, the longest day of the year, a celebration of light. It is no coincidence that this radiant moment in nature is also the International Day of Yoga.

For yoga too is a journey toward the light, not only the outer sun, but the steady flame within. A discipline of clarity, awareness, and balance that helps us align with both the rhythms of the cosmos and the depths of our own being.

In the Iyengar tradition, we honour this day not with spectacle, but with precision, presence, and quiet reverence. Each posture becomes an offering. Each breath, a thread of light.

Tonight at 18:00 we are joining a workshop with the wonderful Randy Just all the way from the US to honour the light above, and the light within.

May we root deep, rise tall,
and carry the light with tenderness!
