Yoga teacher in Toulouse
It was in Southern California, where I lived for a few years, that I decided to take the leap and move from a practitioner to a yoga teacher. I trained in 200hr Yoga alliance yoga instruction in San Diego, CA (USA).
My teacher was trained by Bhava Ram, founder of Deep Yoga. I had the opportunity to meet him, to practice with him and to discover his partner, Laura Plumb, who is specialized in Ayurveda. On the West Coast of the United States, yoga is a real art of daily living and I had the chance to soak up this atmosphere and to explore yoga, in its different styles (hot yoga, kundalini, flow, vinyasa ..) and to live unforgettable experiences of gong meditation.
Back in France, settled in the Toulouse region, I remained attached to the dynamic spirit of yoga and I continued to teach it in this energy.
After a few years, I wanted to deepen my knowledge and my practice by following a 300hr Yoga alliance training. I am fortunate to be connected with wonderful instructors from all over the world, such as:
- Janaina Mendez (Brazil), for Yin and Vinyasa.
- Cody Gavin Pizer (Thailand), for Vinyasa and meditation.
- Doctor Kalpana Karia (India), for philosophy.
- Salomé Heinicke (Bali), for the Ashtanga.
- Manjeet Mathur (India), for philosophy and meditation.
These wonderful instructors, their knowledge and our exchanges inspire and enrich me for my personal practice and my teaching.
Curious, I therefore continue to explore different styles of yoga, from Vinyasa to Yin, including Ashtanga. I am very touched by the depth of Indian culture, at the origin of the philosophy of Yoga.
