Passion for Yoga | Our Story
Namaste
With yoga, something sparkles inside and starts the desire to step on the mat. Whatever takes us to yoga, we are there. Whether it is a journey for life or an experimental moment in time, if yoga is discovered at the ‘right’ time of life, that first encounter can create a practice lifelong and life-reaffirming practice
And so it has happened with GreenYoga, something sparkles and a desire to create is launched: one step is taken and we start …
The first steps of GreenYoga were taken in 2006, when our Co-founder Maria was teaching yoga in yogaDarshan based in Madrid and whose passion for yoga has led her to choose a lifestyle more in line with her values, and she discovered that it was a great challenge for everyone to find both comfortable and pretty yoga clothes as well as good yoga accessories. She took the initiative to sell yoga clothes, accessories and books in her studio to hes students after yoga and in her Yoga Studio website https://yogadarshan.es
Maria is a positive, active and enterprising person, vegetarian for almost 30 years, a seasoned traveller always interested in other countries and cultures, and the proud mother of two adopted dogs: an american staffordhire named Kali & a bullterrier named Shiva.
In December 2019, we decided to start a new adventure and create Green Yoga. The desire is for Green Yoga to always inspire and our motto is: “Attitude is everything.” Above all, there is a commitment to offer the best range of yoga and wellness products: we simply do what we love and that makes a difference!
Our latest news is the exciting launch of our brand and our website in 2020, replacing the former shop at yogadarshan. Our clients’ closeness and satisfaction are very important to us.
