Cecilia Arditto Delsoglio
I started practicing Bikram yoga in Amsterdam in 2006, immediately falling in love with the practice. Every time life is presenting a new challenge I think: how lucky I am to have this yoga.
I completed the 100-day challenge and participated in the Bikram competition in the Netherlands in 2011. In 2012, I became a certified Bikram teacher in Los Angeles. Since then, I have practiced various yoga styles, including Ashtanga, Iyengar, and Hot Pilates. Despite continuous learning and exploration of different styles, I have always felt a strong connection to the Bikram yoga sequence. The warm room, as a physical but mainly a spiritual and emotional space became my favorite place on earth: a place to breath, to heal, to cry and to find myself.
I am also a modern music composer, having graduated cum laude from the Conservatory of Amsterdam in 2002. I balance my music career with yoga practice and teaching. Since 2006, I have been practicing and teaching worldwide alongside my music projects. I am living in Amsterdam since 2002.
Concentration, repetition, and discipline are key aspects of both music and yoga. The flow of the series and the performative aspect of the practice, reflected in the mirrors, makes the Bikram yoga experience immersive, much like a concert. As a teacher, facing a full class shares similarities with rehearsing a full symphony orchestra, with both learning from one another.
