Making it Click: Yoga & Photography Immersion August 26-28, 2011


Join internationally recognized, professional photographer and teacher, Bruno Chalifour, and well-known yoga teacher and life coach, Carla Giambrone, for a weekend that will transform your yoga practice, the way you see and experience photography, and possibly your life.

Beyond physical poses (asanas) the yoga workshop focuses on cultivating and defining authenticity - on the mat and off. The progression of classes will greet you where you are, and take you further than you thought possible. We will modify or intensify to meet individual needs. Ideal for all levels - beginners will feel very comfortable and seasoned yogis will be challenged.

Experience an athletic, invigorating, and empowering vinyasa yoga practice that incorporates breath, flow and focus, and is designed to create a deep sense of stillness and presence. Feel stronger, more open-hearted, connected, and at peace after each session.

Beyond technical questions, the photography workshop focuses on what transforms the making and the viewing of a good photograph into a revelatory experience. To the trained eye and mind, photographs become small epiphanies. They disclose some of the wonders and mysteries of the world as well as reveal layers of their makers' attention, intuition and intentions.

The focus will be on content and how multi-layered images can be created and shared thanks to the understanding of what defines the essence of photography: the use of light, the frame, composition, vantage point, the decisive moment, contemplation, relationship with the subject, connection with one's inner world.

To photograph is to put on the same axis, in the same breath, the eye, the mind and the heart. (inspired by Henri Cartier-Bresson)

Through visual exercises, assignments and group feed-back on produced images, Bruno Chalifour invites you beyond the frame and surface of photographs.

Space is limited to give each participant individual and real attention. Register soon to reserve your spot.
