SALUTING THE SUNSET
“Based on the hatha yoga (vinyasa breathing) system of Ashtanga, Sunset Vinyasa will be taught at a beginning level, but modifications to intensify the asanas will be given.” If the above makes sense to you, jump into your yoga garb and head up to Castle Panigirakis, a listed, post-industrial monument overlooking Chora, at around 19:00. Up there, overlooking the town, Ukrainian-born Victoria Omelchuk holds the most enjoyable yoga sessions that are timed to get the most out of the sunset view, with support from Delos in the distance, emanating its magical energy.
