The first format of YOGA that I learnt was Hatha Yoga in the Greater Himalayas, Uttarkashi and Patrizia was my batch mate.
Throughout the entire course we never had a chance to speak to each other instead had only exchanged a few warm smiles.
The smile that I saw on her face always reflected her inner beauty and the shine that she carried so graciously always.
That created an unsaid, unspoken connection. After the course was completed we did not have a chance to say bye bye to each other probably because we were destined to meet again.
During the training program it was just once that we spoke , when patty came to me and softly said that I saw you in my dreams yesterday. I was amazed to hear this and convinced myself that it was just a dream and one can dream of anything.
A couple of years passed by and Patty came back to India and was traveling to Rajasthan.
Incidentally even I was traveling to Rajasthan as well with Pooja and the kids. Destiny made us meet at Udaipur and later Patty joined us for the remaining part of our trip. During the trip i discovered what an amazing person Patrizia is and an even extraordinary healer and Yoga Teacher.
I still remember , we were staying at a hotel in Kumbhalgarh and decided to practice Yoga together. Until then i never knew anything about Viniyasa Yoga.
We had a 60 minutes powerful Viniyasa Yoga session and while the outside temperature was 5°C in about 60 minutes I was sweating profusely and kept feeling energised with every passing Yoga pose.
The class was like a strom outside that helped me to calm the storm inside of me.
The veerbhadrasana sequence, the pegion sequence and many more made feel lot of positive energy that stayed with me throughout the day and I felt the internal happiness.
At the end, all that I can say is I was destined to practice Yoga with Patrizia (Patty) and she came all the way from Italy to teach and enlighten the flame of Viniyasa Yoga and inspire me to teach this beautiful flow. One of the most humble , inspiring , honest and spiritually aligned Yoga teacher that I have come accross.
All the best !!
Keep shining and keep brightening. 🙏🙏
