Mindful Practice
Welcome! I’m delighted to have you here.
My studio in Sarzana is the only IYENGAR® Yoga studio in the Province of La Spezia and the surrounding areas dedicated exclusively to the authentic Iyengar Yoga method.
I have been practicing yoga since 2010, and it has profoundly transformed my life. Today, as a certified Iyengar Yoga teacher, I help others improve their health, find greater happiness, and cultivate self-awareness.
The Iyengar Method is often described as “intelligent yoga.” Its emphasis on precision, alignment, and attention to detail allows every student—from complete beginners to experienced practitioners—to practice safely, effectively, and with confidence.
The Studio Is Open All Year Round
- Studio Classes (Sarzana)
Regular group and private classes are available throughout the year (with a reduced schedule during the summer), along with workshops and themed seminars.
The studio is fully equipped with authentic Iyengar Yoga props—including bolsters, belts, chairs, and wooden blocks—allowing every posture to be adapted to your body’s unique anatomy, making the practice both accessible and safe.
- Summer Season: Exclusive Private Yoga Programs on the Coast of Versilia & Liguria.
During the summer months, you can book exclusive private sessions at your location throughout Versilia and Liguria.
I offer personalised programs at your villa/seaside residence in Forte dei Marmi, Pietrasanta o Lerici or even aboard your yacht at Porto Mirabello.
Each program is carefully tailored to your individual needs, whether you wish to:
- release muscular and fascial tension,
- recover after sailing, air travel, or intense tennis training,
- counterbalance the effects of a sedentary lifestyle,
- improve posture,
- gently decompress and lengthen the spine,
- strengthen the musculoskeletal system,
- healthy-aging and energy restore.
The Philosophy of the Method
Iyengar Yoga is suitable for everyone, regardless of age or physical condition.
You may choose to practice once or twice a week to improve your wellbeing, posture, flexibility, and reduce stress, or gradually discover yoga as a profound path of personal growth, self-awareness and mindfulness.
See You on the mat!
Roman Amelchenko
Certified IYENGAR® Yoga Teacher
I have been doing yoga for a long time, then there was an injury, so the classes had to be suspended for several years. The body needed to be revived. Roma very carefully and delicately, with accurate knowledge of both theory and practice, helped me to love yoga even more and "revive the memory of the body." I have no doubt that studying with Roma will bring you balance and flexibility.
I have been practicing yoga for almost a year. I can say that my body, my mood has definitely improved. If I do not practice for several days, I feel a lack of practice. Roman is the teacher I recommend to everyone, try it yourself to believe it.
Long live yoga!
