Francisco ( Xico) Rodrigues

My Name is Francisco, most people call me Xico Rodrigues.
Yoga as been my companion since i am twelve years old. I found it through my Mother who obligated me to do it.
I dint really like it at first, I mean, yoga was calm and boring, but i noticed how every thing around me got better.
Now after more than 20 years, yoga is one of the most fun things i do.
After having practiced Ashtanga yoga as it is traditional in Mysore for more than 10 years i came to realize that if i wanted to continue practicing i had to learn more about the body and mind, about me and the environment .
I have developed many different ways to learn, and practice yoga depending on each persons needs. Most importantly, is to recognize that learning is the force that requires clarity and focus but it also requires that we are detached, enjoying our time, doing things with love and having faith in us and the world around us.
In order to fully understand yoga and reach our unlimited potential, we should acknowledge every teacher that is around us, breaking through stereotypes, boxes and labels.
Besides being authorized level 2 by the SKPJ Ashtanga Yoga Institute , Msore India, I am continuously seek diferente forms of movement and meditation to learn.
I lived in India for a long time and i was blessed to have learned Yoga from the best teachers in the world who i dedicate my teachings every day.
