Yoga with Christian Pisano in Wrocław,
We invite all advanced yogis and yoga teachers to a unique, 3-day yoga workshop with Christian Pisano. After the last workshop in Wrocław in 2020, there was an incredible interest of yogis from Poland and abroad. Christian accepted Marek Bednarski’s invitation and will again conduct his workshop at Fabryka Energii! We invite everyone who would like to experience 3 days of practice with this amazing yoga teache
"Christian Pisano is not a yoga teacher, he is a real yogi. You can feel it not only while his teaching, but also in direct contact with him. His message contains such a deep essence that it cannot be compared to anything else. It is a deep philosophy combined with a clear instruction. It does not focus on the academic approach to performing asanas, which may be revolutionary for us in Poland. It gives something that cannot be experienced anywhere else. As a recognized teacher, apart from Nice, he conducts workshops only at the invitation of yoga associations. It is not without significance that he received the title of senior senior from Guruji Iyengar himself as one of the three teachers in the world. We are therefore very lucky to host such an amazing teacher in Poland as Christian Pisano. I myself feel deeply moved after meeting him together, and I hope you will experience his presence similarly."
Christian Pisano
Christian Pisano is one of the most exceptional Iyengar Yoga teachers in the world.
As one of the very few students in history, he received the Advanced Senior certificate directly from B.K.S. Iyengar himself — the highest distinction in this tradition. This places him among the absolute forefront of global Iyengar practitioners and teachers, alongside the most direct carriers of the Iyengar lineage.
Christian has been practicing and teaching yoga for over three decades. His journey began in India, where he travelled to study under B.K.S. Iyengar and his family. Since then, he has continuously deepened his understanding not only of asana technique, but also of philosophy, Sanskrit, and the non-dual traditions that permeate his teaching.
He is the co-founder and director of the Iyengar Yoga Institute of Nice in France, one of the most respected Iyengar Yoga schools in Europe.
His teaching style blends the precision of the Iyengar method with a profound, contemplative insight. Christian guides practitioners toward experiencing the asana as an act of awareness rather than merely a physical shape. His workshops are known for their exceptional intensity, clarity of transmission, and unique ability to lead students beyond habitual patterns into a more alive, authentic practice.
He is also the author of several acclaimed works, including The Hero’s Contemplation, in which he weaves the teachings of B.K.S. Iyengar together with Kashmiri Śaivism, creating a unique bridge between structure and freedom in the practice of yoga.
Today, Christian is regarded as one of the most perceptive and inspiring teachers of his generation. His presence at a workshop offers a rare opportunity to study with someone who carries both the direct lineage of Iyengar and an uncommon capacity to guide practitioners into a deeper experience of presence.

Christian Pisano and his one of a kind book on yoga
Christian Pisano is the author of „The Heroe’s Contemplation. Yoga In The Light Of The Teachings Of B.K.S.Iyengar And Non-Dual Kashmir Shavism„. Christian’s book is just like „The Light of Yoga” by B.K.S. Iyengar. This is a comprehensive and extraordinary account of the teachings inspired by Guruji himself (who wrote the introduction) and Kashmiri Savinism. The book places the postural practice of Yoga in a broader theme. It is an extensive and remarkable compilation of the teachings, often unknown legends, and hidden symbolism behind the named asanas, along with insightful quotes and wonderful illustrations and photos. Pisano’s book is an excellent introduction to and preparation for the workshop in Wrocław.
"I have often noticed that the techniques that we use are not understood, we use them on an organism that is not ready. We impose techniques as if we want to colonise the body without understanding its culture, its customs, its language and its internal semantics. This always has a tendency to create a body of tension where the emphasis is on the doer. I feel it’s therefore very important to prepare the body with certain preliminaries in such a way that the ‘bodily clothing’ becomes very large. Thus the asana can deploy itself by itself, almost spontaneously, without too much effort."

„EXPLORING THE FIELD OF CONSCIOUSNESS”
TOPIC OF THE WORKSHOP „EXPLORING THE FIELD OF CONSCIOUSNESS”
„I always practice the three reminders. They are like 3 lakes that cleanse the heart. First I always remember that I am a form of infinite Consciousness. Then I always observe the glorious phenomenon of this universe as the expression of my own Consciousness.
Most of all I keep the awareness that all the different states of Consciousness are my own self. »Lalla
To intuit the spatiality of the body through certain rituals of fullness. These rituals are there to make us recognize our infinite ability to enlighten our process, whatever it may be. So there is reconciliation with what we call practice, which is the movement of reality itself. The means used point to spontaneous instruction at the heart of each asana as well as the recognition of a living technique and pedagogy that is innate to us, but that we have often forgotten.” – Christian Pisano

""Friend, forget your doubts about the practice that would only eliminate the symptoms of the agitation, not the cause of the anxiety. Isolation is a practice. Anxiety is practice. Feeling helpless is a practice. Panic is a practice. Boredom is a practice. Fear is a practice of the highest order."
