Trekking and Mountaineering

At six hundred kilometres north from New Delhi, behind the plains of Punjab, the Dhauladhar range is the first Himalayan barrier.

Mcleodganj, the small Indian city where the XIV Dalai Lama and the Tibetan government are living in exile, is a gateway to mountains which are not like the others.

PROGRAM

Day 1: We will trek through agricultural villages where banana trees grow below snow capped mountains. Then they go within a dense and luxuriant forest with huge rhododendrons: this is the kingdom of the monkeys.

Camping close to the shepherds, at the height of 3300 meters.

Day 2: We will use the longest and steepest stair of Himachal Pradesh, several kilometres long, to reach a pass, a 4400 meters. There is no technical difficulty, but this is a special experience. From the pass, there is a wonderful view on seven holly lakes surrounded by snow. There is a yearly Hindu pilgrimage in summer.

Day 3 to 6: We will enjoy trekking in the morning, with crampons and ice axes, when the snow is hard, and stretching and relaxing with Yoga and Massage by afternoon.

Tibetan Yoga activates the global energy and Tibetan Massage relaxes.

Day 7: We will reach another pass, at 4350 meters of height. Munpeak, 4650 meters is very close. It is not difficult. We will scale it.

Day 8 and 9: Way down to Mcleodganj, 1650 meters.

Day 10: Celebration of this journey and my birthday (58).

Tibetan Yoga and Laughing Yoga

There are many yoga teachers in Mcleodganj, but none of them is teaching Tibetan Yoga and Laughing Yoga.

Tibetan Yoga activates immediately our general energy through dynamic exercises. The Laughing Yoga generate good mood.

In March 2007, I have demonstrated the efficiency of Tibetan Yoga on snow, with 30 trainees of the Regional Mountaineering Institute of Dharamsala-Mcleodganj.
In November 2007 I have taught basics to Tibetan children, in two schools.
From 1 to 10 March 2008, I will teach again Tibetan students at Mcleodganj.

...
COURSE
You will practice Tibetan Yoga early morning on a sunny terrace, then sharing lessons with Tibetan children, in a school. A unique experience.

The Laughing Yoga is a perfect complement to any other yoga training because it brings different information to increase our good mood. It will be taugh with the tibetan Yoga.
