About this activity

Yoga and Ayurveda share the same view of the human being: we are not all alike, and therefore the same practice does not necessarily have the same effect on everyone. In this workshop, we will explore āsana practice from the perspective of the three doṣa — Vāta, Pitta and Kapha — and see how the qualities of each constitution can guide us when choosing, adapting and sequencing the practice. We will work both theoretically and practically to understand how the rhythm, intensity, duration, breathing and attitude with which we perform an āsana can profoundly alter its effects. The aim is not to create “a Yoga practice for each doṣa”, but to learn to observe and use the practice with greater discernment. A way to bring Yoga and Ayurveda together through a practical, conscious approach that respects each person’s individuality.

Marta Bort Matas

I’m Marta Bort, a teacher and transmitter of the Yoga and Ayurveda tradition. For many years, my path has been connected to the practice, study and teaching of Yoga, understood not only as a physical practice, but as a profound tradition that invites us to know ourselves and live with greater attention and awareness.

I teach Hatha Yoga from a perspective rooted in the tradition and philosophy of Yoga, and I also support teacher-training processes. In my work, I integrate meditation, prāṇāyāma, Yoga Nidra and the knowledge of Ayurveda, always seeking to bring these teachings into everyday life in a rigorous, simple and accessible way.

For many years, alongside classes and training, I have organised retreats, gatherings and trips to India for small groups. These are spaces that allow participants to deepen their practice and connect with the tradition through experience, because I understand Yoga above all as something to be lived.
