Sonrisa –

We spent two weeks on vacation in Denia and attended Alexi’s beach yoga sessions three times. It was absolutely fantastic! Alexi leads the classes in a very professional yet relaxed manner. I highly recommend taking a yoga class with him. He is a very friendly and pleasant person, and you immediately feel comfortable with him.

We where on family vacation in Javea. After a very pleasant contact via mobile and Whatsapp Alexi came to our house to give a yoga session to hour family. Our age range went from 11 to 75! Alexi improvised a program which suited us all. Alexi is a very pleasant and open person. Next to this he is a professional! It felt like I already knew him for some years : ).

I have just returned from a Sonrisa Retreat after five days of bliss. I had been up and down with serious health issues for almost three years, especially suffering from sciatica, and arthritis which was spreading to other parts of my body, along with nerve damage in my neck and both shoulders, even although I had a back operation, I still had major back problems probably caused from working long hours on drilling rigs. The catalyst from my changing my whole lifestyle was when I suffered a severe kidney stones episode, which was misdiagnosed after having scans at the hospital. Having no relief from the meds they prescribed, I decided to explore alternative routes, such as: Religiously doing the cold water therapy along with breathwork and binaural beats/sound therapy. At the same time going back to the gym, taking regular saunas and doing the occasional yoga classes and qi-gong from Youtube tutorials. I feel that this basically saved my life as my last scan showed a 75% improvement. The doctor even said that most people with the conditions that had, could hardly get out of bad. She said that it was only because I had forced myself to do breath work and cold water therapy I am now feeling fit enough to return to my career as opposed to just able to do the odd job here and there. A friend recommended that I should go to www.sonrisa.com.es and join their retreat at the venue @karmavidaspain. I therefore contacted Kat and Alexi who did nothing but reassure me, and were very generous the time they took to accommodate my specific needs. When I arrived it was breathtaking, paradise! I felt so at ease from the moment I walked in due to the warm welcome I recieved from ALL the staff. Everyone, including the residents were very friendly. A wide range of age, experience and nationality making for very interesting company. This all added to the overall comradery. The food was outstanding, albeit vegetarian and vegan, which I certainly am not lol … however, it was trully amazing with each plant based meal being amazing, cooked by the wonderful chef Angela @chefangelasgourmet Alexi the yoga teacher was very helpful, no matter what level you are at and he made everyone feel comfortable. Within five days my pain and flexibility has improved no end! All due to his unique teaching style, energy and ability to put people at ease. After saying all this, there are no words to explain the heavenly feel to this experience… I will definitely be back, and can’t wait!

Great experience. The perfect combination of relaxation, nature, breathing and hard work. Will do it again with no doubt. Very recommended

What a unique beautiful day that was! I booked this day retreat with a friend of mine. The setting was stunning. Our day was filled with wonderful experiences and possibilities ranging from Yoga flow, meditation, delicious lunch, poses workshop, sound bath… We were a fairly small group of absolutely lovely people. Kat & Alexi who hosted the event are so nice, professional and friendly. It was a perfect balance of yoga with strength and relaxing moments and calm. They made everything flow so easily. The day was pure joy. I can not wait for another of their glorious retreat. A true treat!!!

I’ve been having lessons with Alexi for a year now in the studio and on the beach. His classes are excellent with great variation, it amazes me how many new positions he brings in to the classes. The one day retreat in November was absolutely amazing. Such a beautiful place, great food, lovely people and wonderful workshops and sound bath. I highly recommend both the classes and the retreats, I can’t wait for the next one.

Excellent yoga classes with Alexi in Dénia. Venue is beautiful and all equipment is provided. Sounds are peaceful and spot on. And Alexi is an absolutely brilliant yoga teacher. I leave every session feeling positive and energised!

Alexi es un encanto y hace clases adaptadas. Siempre pendiente y ayudando a las alumnas. Lo recomiendo totalmente!

Great yoga classes for all levels of practice. Alexi is in tune with each of his students needs and comfort levels. He offers a variety of classes from yin to vinyasa flow, which is greatly appreciated. I breathe deeper, act kinder and smile more after one of Alexi’s classes.

Excellent yoga classes, Alexi is a superb teacher, classes are friendly and great value i highly recommend.

Alexi is the best kind of yoga teacher. Funny, relatable and wise. I leave every class feeling content, energized and with a smile on my face:)

As a beginner I felt very supported by Alexi. I now regularly attend 2-3 times a week, all the lessons are different and interesting. I always look forward to my yoga classes with Alexi. Genuine recommendation

Very knowledgeable instructor with a very pleasant personality. Yin class very enjoyable along with choice of music. Very relaxing.

Beach yoga with Alexi is sublime. The sand, sun and sea only enhance the already seamless flow of his yoga class. Expertly directed, I always feel safe and well cared for as I move through the asanas. Highly recommend!
