Please let me know what would be more appropriate (type of yoga) for someone that doesn't know it and the price of classes.

I actually logged onto Glocals today to post something on tai chi and saw your forum post on yoga. Sivananda is a good style of hatha yoga. "Hatha" is used differently by different people, but generally refers to the posture (physical) aspect of yoga - the postures are usually called asanas.
Iyengar yoga is another style of yoga, slow and exceeding detail to posture alignment, etc.
Ashtanga is yet another approach to yoga with emphasis on creating a flow (vinayasa). It tends to build up more heat, strength, and is more cardio.
I personally think that regardless of the style, the teacher and the way they set up the classs makes all the difference. Hence, best to visit and try out a class. A good studio ought to let you try classes, and often the first class for free, but being Switzerland I would not count on that. Here is a link to some different schools that I found for Geneva:

If you and some friends have a space and would like to get together sometime with mats for a yoga session, let me know. My schedule is crazy with travels lately, but it would be a good excuse to get out and play some yoga.

Hi, I am looking for yoga which is in English and oriented on your meditation and breathing, not only on physical effort. It's funny to read that if you don't speak french it's not a problem. Do you know that yoga is only 10% of action and 90% of inner mental and spiritual work?;) How can you enjoy it if you don't understandd a teacher...which should be your spiritual leader?
Anyway, I am looking for a spiritual teacher...and...it shouldn't be something trandy or superexpensive...
Thanks a lot in advance
