Soulful Yoga: 90 Minutes of Blissful Guidance
Step onto the mat for a 90-minute yoga experience crafted with care. I begin each class with a warm introduction, ensuring everyone feels at ease on their mat. I guide you verbally throughout the session while demonstrating asanas, allowing you to hear, see, and seamlessly integrate movement.
After the practice, we reflect on the shared journey, fostering community and self-awareness. Join me for a transformative blend of guidance, demonstration, and reflection on your yoga path. Namaste.
Schedule for Winter 2024 / 25
General
We practice barefoot in comfortable clothing that allows for the full range of movement (including going upside down i.e. downward facing dog pose).
Please bring a towel or your own yoga mat (hygienic reasons).
For Yin Yoga classes bring some clothes who keep you warm and comfortable.
It is not advised to eat anything heavy before Yoga practice as we will be doing twists and inversions, but light snacks such as fruit, dried fruit and nuts, smoothies or yoghurt are fine.
Please bring their own mats, props and any other accessories needed during the practice.
Let your home become your personal yoga studio. Join the classes ONLINE if you cant be with us life.
Yoga Classes for Everybody
(young, older, stiff, flexible, bigger or smaller.... )
Tribal Yoga is basically about being body positiv, enjoying and knowing your body just as it is.
Each class will begin with a short introduction and welcome followed by a group tuning in using the Mantra AUM what is a part of the Breathwork we integrate in every class. We then activate our organs and prepare our bodies and our mind for the asana practice through some sets of Sun Salutations and breathing exercises where we internalize our focus and come home to our body.
Firstly we provide a safe environment for everybody to experience a yoga asana practise and build a deeper connection with our bodies.
In everything we do we are driven by the desire to share the life-enriching teachings of Yoga.
Testimonials
Practicing consistently with Gaby has been an incredibly transformative journey for me. Not only have I experienced remarkable progress, with my body feeling notably stronger and more resilient, but I've also witnessed a significant reduction in the stress I carry from work as soon as I step onto my mat. Gaby's classes strike the perfect balance - they're robust yet gentle, offering moments to exert, relax, and deeply stretch. Missing these sessions is something I'd regret, and I wholeheartedly recommend everyone to join in and experience the incredible benefits. - Giulia C.
The study of asana is not about mastering posture. It's about using posture to understand and transform yourself.
- B.K.S. Iyengar

t was one of the most amazing experience in my life! Gaby is a perfect guide of desert energy. I enjoyed her yoga, which is soft, but powerful. Thank you so much for this wonderful morning - Julia D.
A bit out in the desert you get out of the car and start to walk into the desert. We passed Bedouin camps and eventually got to the spot where we did our yoga. Very nice and peaceful. At the way back we walked in silence and felt the nature and mind. - Patrick L.
I spent 3 days with Gaby experiencing yoga, meditation and gaining a deeper understanding of practice. Yoga in the desert was a wonderful experience and one that will stay with me for some time. Gaby has a thorough understanding of her practice and is extremely insightful. - Helen J.
I was so glad to visit Gaby and do yoga with her. We were in Sharm for a week and we visited Omkara twice. Gaby is a very warm, friendly and approachable lady with great knowledge of what she is teaching. My husband, who had not done yoga before came with me, and he enjoyed it very much too. The school is in a beautiful location, right on the sea, so you can go for a nice dip after!! We had some fresh juice next door which was delicious.. go for mango;)!! We are planning to go back to Egypt next year and will be definitely visiting Omkara again. - Nafia H.
I didnt have a routine in my practice. I discovered that being conscious about my own well-being and daily routine helps a lot with how i perform in business. I love the mind power tools and practice them every day. I feel and live my greatness and i released more of my past traumas. I feel so much more alive. - Sarah B.
Tribal Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Mysore Style
Welcome to our dynamic yoga class designed for students seeking a strong physical workout with holistic benefits. Divided into two parts, this class seamlessly blends traditional yoga wisdom with therapeutic elements.
In the initial half-hour, we focus on a warm-up regimen featuring Mysore-style Sun Salutations A and B, setting the foundation for a revitalizing practice. The second segment encompasses a comprehensive body workout through a sequence of carefully curated positions.
From energizing standing asanas to grounding sitting postures, invigorating backbends, and empowering inversions, each part of the class is thoughtfully crafted to engage and strengthen the entire body. Our session concludes with a soothing relaxation period and a touch of chanting, offering a holistic experience that rejuvenates both the body and the mind.
Give yourself some ME time!
Tribal Hatha Yoga Sivananda Style
This class is suitable for beginners through advanced students. It offers maximum traditional knowledge and integrates therapeutic values. This class consists of 3 parts. The first part of the class is considered to be the yogic warm-up and synchronization of breath and movement to increase stamina. This is achieved by numerous repetitions of traditional Sun- and Moon Salutations.
The second part aims to increase flexibility through stretching and aid in muscle toning and development. This is accomplished through a series of arm and leg raises, movements involving twisting, chest and shoulder opening movements, pelvic opening stretches and finally exercises to increase flexibility of the spine.
The third part of the class consists of the Sivananda series of positions to achieve maximum benefit of the yoga asanas.
The class ends with relaxation and chanting.
A Hatha Yoga practice can be the invitation to refresh our souls and connect our physical lives with breath, mind and body.
Breathwork Yin Yoga
Yin yoga comes from the Taoist tradition and focuses on passive, seated postures that target the connective tissues in the hips, pelvis and lower spine and it's also suitable for folks who want to loosen up and melt with their bodies.
Integrating a breathwork rhythm intensifies the practice and leaves you with the feeling of maximum connection.
We start the class with slow stretches of the spine and go on with gentle stretches in seated and lying positions.
While we hold the poses for anywhere between one and three minutes we follow a breathwork rhythm. The aim is to increase flexibility and encourage a feeling of release, letting go and connecting to our selfs and the universe. It is a wonderful way to learn the basics of meditation and stilling the mind. As such, it is ideal for athletic types who need to release tension in overworked joints and also for those who need to relax.
The class ends with relaxation and chanting.
Kundalini Kriya Yoga
Kundalini Kriya Yoga offers a transformative practice that combines mantra work and repetitive movements, akin to the traditional Kundalini practice. While similar in essence, Kundalini Kriya Yoga introduces unique kriyas that create a dynamic moving meditation experience.
Unlike traditional meditation practices that may require hours of daily commitment, Kundalini Kriya Yoga unlocks profound insights and self-discovery within just three to five minutes. Through these brief yet potent sessions, practitioners delve deep into their consciousness, uncovering hidden truths about themselves and their inner world.
This practice serves as a catalyst for energetic shifts and mental clarity, aligning our state of mind with the intention of the kriya. As we engage in these transformative movements, any unresolved emotions or blockages are gently brought to the surface, facilitating a beautiful healing process.
Embark on this journey of self-exploration and healing with Kundalini Kriya Yoga, and experience the profound shifts in energy and consciousness that await.
Breath Inspired Yoga
The breath is the foundation for our practice as well as our life. When we coordinate our movement to our breath and allow the breath to inspire movement we have the ability to become present and still inside.
We start the class with a Breath Awareness Practice and discover its way in and out of our Body through different breathing techniques. In different poses we hold and breath and feel the changes through the air flowing in and out.
The aim is to increase awareness for your breath and encourage a feeling of release and letting go. It is a wonderful way to learn the basics of functional breathing and experiencing the NOW moment. It is ideal for people who suffer from anxiety, stress, insomnia...
Together we flow, breathe, sweat, focus, learn, evolve and enjoy the NOW moment. Are you in?
YOGA is when every cell in your body sings the song of your soul.

Create a union between body, breath and mind and connet to your inner self..
