Airports

London is well served by 4 main airports: Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted and Luton. There are low cost operators from all these airports.

The best place to exchange money is in your home country. Avoid exchanging money at the airports. You can check exchange rates at: www.oanda.com

Banks often offer good exchange rates, thus using your credit cards or debit cards makes a lot of sense. Do not come without money; some cards may not work and you could be stranded without means.

DeRose

The one who developed the most expressive work

DeROSE with his works. More than a million books sold.

Who is DeROSE

He’s an educator, a writer, a common man who dedicates himself to writing about several subjects: behaviour, fiction, good manners, short stories, cooking, biography, philosophy, etc. He has written more than 20 books, which were published in several countries, selling more than a million copies. He’s almost retired from his other occupations.

The Rediscovered Culture

DeRose re-educates his readers in order to become better human beings, politer, more travelled, more refined, more civilized, more cultivated, so that they can improve even their language and their good manners. He suggests a behavioural revolution with their families, their partners, their friends, with their subordinates and towards strangers. He also recommends that latent conflicts be solved politely, without further confrontation. All in one, he teaches breathing re-education, postural re-education, nutritious re-education, etc, hence providing the cultural and social background.

In 1960, the youngest Yôga teacher in Brazil appeared. It was DeRose, then at the age of sixteen, who had started to teach in a well-know philosophical society. In 1964, he founded the Brazilian Institute of Yôga.

In 1969, he published the first book (“Prontuário de Yôga Antigo”), which was praised by Ravi Shankar himself, by Mistress Chiang Sing, and by other authorities on Yôga.

In 1975, already recognized as a sincere Prof., he gained support to found the União Nacional de Yôga (the National Union of Yôga), the first entity to congregate instructors and schools of all modalities of Yôga without discrimination. It was the União Nacional de Yôga that unleashed the movement for union, ethics, and mutual respect among the professionals in this area of teaching. Since then, the União has grown substantially and today is made up of hundreds of schools throughout virtually the entire country of Brazil as well as in other countries of Latin America and Europe.

In 1978, DeRose led the campaign for creating and disseminating the first legislative act for regulating the profession of Yôga, which resulted in an intense mobilization of individuals and in serious debates throughout the country. In the 1970´s, he also introduced the University Extension Courses for the Formal Education of Yôga Instructors in virtually every State, Federal, and Catholic University in Brazil. Later, in 1980, he began to give courses in India and to teach Yôga instructors in Europe.

Two years later, in 1982, he organized the First Brazilian Congress of Yôga and published the first book written specifically for the guidance of Yôga instructors, the “Guia do Instrutor de Yôga” (“Guide for the Yôga Instructor”) as well as the first Brazilian translation of the “Yôga Sútra of Pátañjali”, the most important book of Classic Yôga. Unfortunately, the more he stood out, the more he became target of a ruthless persecution promoted by less honest competitors who felt harmed by the clarification campaign promoted by Prof. DeRose, a campaign that made more difficult the cons of the conmen.

In 1994, after 20 years of trips to India, he founded the “Primeira Universidade de Yôga do Brasil” (“First Brazilian University of Yôga”) and the “Universidade Internacional de Yôga” (“International Yôga University”), with schools in Portugal and Argentina. In 1997, Prof. DeRose launched the foundations of the “Conselho Federal de Yôga” (“Federal Yôga Council”) and the “Sindicato Nacional de Yôga” (“National Yôga Professors Union”). Celebrating forty years as a teacher in the year 2000, he received, in both 2001 and 2002, the recognition and title of “Mestre em Yôga” (“Prof. in Yôga”) (non-academic) and “Notório Saber em Yôga” (“Notorious Knowledge in Yôga”) from FATEA – Faculdades Integradas Teresa d´Ávila (São Paulo), from the Universidade do Porto (Portugal), from the Universidade de Cruz Alta (Rio Grande do Sul), Universidade Estácio de Sá (Minas Gerais), from the Municipal Assembly of Curitiba (Paraná), and from the Sociedade Brasileira de Cultura e Integração (“Brazilian Culture and Integration Society”), which also granted him a “Comenda”.

In 2003, he received the title of "Comendador" from Academia Brasileira de Arte, Cultura e História (“Brazilian Academy of Art, Culture and History”). By law, in the States of Paraná and São Paulo, Prof. DeRose´s birthday has been decreed as Yôga Day
