Federico Insabato, owner and director of Yog Ayur Roma.
A Yoga Alliance-certified yoga and meditation teacher, YogAyurvedic massage therapist, and relationship counselor, after a career as a sailor and a degree in International Cooperation, he decided to dedicate himself fully to his lifelong interest in inner exploration and the investigation of the causes of human well-being.
In 2013, he founded YogAyur, a Rome-based association that runs a Yoga studio and retreats center in Umbria and organises spiritual journeys in Italy and abroad.
Along his journey, in addition to yoga, he studied the Sacred Movements and Dances handed down by G.I. Gurdjieff and the Sema of the Sufi tradition, and he trained in Ayurvedic yoga massage with Shakti Martinez, a direct student of the Indian master Kusum Modak.
YogAyur Roma is a cozy studio in the vibrant Ostiense quarter, a few metro stops from the ancient heart of the eternal city of Rome.
