In this workshop we will look at relaxation, because the mind plays a very important role in the development of vision disorders; on posture, emphasizing key areas, such as the neck; and on the breath. I will suggest simple eye exercises that can be performed anywhere and have a formidable degree of efficiency to rest his eyes from fatigue (screens, lights, driving), to tone the eye muscles and to boost visual attention.

Sound yoga: private, group lessons, discovery workshop
The Yoga of sound… what is it? It can be defined as the set of practices using the vibrations of his voice or of instruments ... mainly allowing to calm the mind. We then experience thoughtless states of consciousness. It can therefore be the support for meditation. The yoga of sound is different from singing because no vocal skills are required. Thanks to sound vibrations, you can also explore your own body. With regular practice, you develop a sensitivity to the vibrations of your voice that propagate in your body. You can then make certain parts of your body vibrate, such as your toes! This can therefore be a way to become more aware of your body, of yourself, of your well-being. In a pictorial way, we can then consider that the body is a musical instrument which resonates, vibrates, breathes, ... and which will interpret music using for example the singing of vowels, certain songs or mantras, harmonic singing ... Goals : • contact a state of physical, mental, emotional relaxation, in order to calm the mind and be more in tune with oneself and to reach inner peace, joy and even fullness. • discover practices that allow you to become aware of your body, your voice, to be freer and more confident with your voice. • learn different breathing techniques. • learn to physically feel the vibrations of his voice in his body. • learn the techniques to propagate the vibrations of his voice in his body. • carry out the sound massage yourself of all the organs of the body, the entire bone structure, etc. • become aware of its various tensions and resolve them. • strengthen their mental capacities for concentration, memorization, and consolidation of learning capacities. Who is the Yoga of sound for? Musician or not… all people who want, thanks to their own voice, to learn how to better become aware of their body, their tensions, their well-being, and who like to sing. It is not necessary to know how to sing to practice the yoga of sound. How does a typical session take place? After awakening the body thanks to the Tandava dance (Indian dance), we approach different practices in order to learn how to methodically develop the sensations of vibrations of his voice in his body. The approaches are presented in a practical way allowing autonomy. Important note: this yoga is not postural, it can be practiced sitting on a chair or on the floor on mats and cushions. It is therefore accessible to any person and any age. It is not necessary to know how to sing to practice the yoga of sound, it is about making vibrate and modulate the sounds in oneself by using one's voice.

Online Pilates classes private or in small groups in your place.
Pilates is a method of exercise and physical movement designed to stretch, strengthen, and balance the body. With systematic practice of specific exercises coupled with focused breathing patterns, Pilates has proven itself invaluable not only as a fitness endeavor, but also as an important adjunct to professional sports training and physical rehabilitation of all kinds.

Cathy
Private Yoga classes (Iyengar, Vinyasa, Sivananda, Ashtanga) at home
Having 20+ years of experience, I am interested in sharing my knowledge of yoga and the benefits of Reiki (energy harmonization) with everyone. I was trained in India where I lived for several years (Iyengar, Sivananda). Iyengar's individual approach allows you to work the postures accurately using the breath, without hurting yourself, learning to listen to him. I currently practice dynamic yoga based on a series of postures by consciously breathing that allows the mind to gradually let go. Private lessons allow you to establish a personal practice program. After a first interview, during which your motivations and needs are studied, you will leave with a personalized session to practice at home autonomously. I establish and guide a practice that will be reevaluated and intensified gradually by integrating reflexology and Reiki (energy harmonization) during each course. Private lessons can be done at the teacher's home or in English or in French. Enjoy a moment of well-being!

Megan
Personalized Yoga Sessions (taught in English). Online and In-Person
Having a physical and mental outlet- such as a regular home yoga practice- is so important. During the first confinement in France, I turned my in-person yoga classes into online sessions. The virtual classes I teach have proven effective for my beginner, intermediate, and advanced students. I have also resumed teaching in-person yoga sessions and classes in Paris. Yoga aligns your physical movement with your breath and increases physical strength and flexibility. Practicing yoga with a private teacher enables you to have the proper alignment for the postures, which ensures the most benefits. Yoga is great for people of all ages, shapes, and physical capabilities. Just a few of the many benefits of yoga include relaxation, relief of back discomfort, muscle tension, and stress. The private lessons that I teach are tailored to your goals and physical abilities. Yoga sessions will be given in the comfort of your home, or outside as weather permits. I am happy to answer any further questions you have, or set up a session with you at your convenience. Please take note that different fees will apply for groups, or corporate classes (depending on location and number of students). Thank you!

David
Online Class of Meditation/Yoga/QiGong/Kung-Fu/Fitness for everyone
After 20 years of practice in a broad variety of sports, my daily practice now encompasses all these styles for a holistic approach to fitness and inner peace. It is applicable to any level, from beginners who want to discover the potential of their bodies to already sportive people who want to increase performance. During the practice, I emphasize mindfulness and sensations for students to learn how to listen to their bodies. If you want to focus on one style more than the others, don’t hesitate to tell me! I try as much as possible to work without any equipment, although a yoga mat would be useful. However, if you already have weights, ropes, or anything else, let’s make good use of them.

Tim
Hatha Yoga and Vinyasa flow classes (Teacher certified by the Yoga Alliance)
My classes suits well for beginners and intermediate levels. The rythm is energetic and dynamic. I'm specialized in one-to-one or two person classes, even though I can handle bigger groups. I preferably move to your place, and I got mats for you. My classes are challenging but accessible, and you will learn to create a deep connexion between your mind and body through breathing exercices and a complete hatha yoga practice.

Camila
Private yoga classes in English, French or Spanish
With private yoga lessons, you will receive personalized instruction based on your body type. I will carefully prepare a class that meets your personal needs. Private yoga instruction can help you improve the basics and expand your yoga practice. People of all ages are welcome to practice yoga, with no need for previous experience. Classes can take place at your home or at mine in Leuven. Group classes are possible (5 € extra per person). In the first class, we can talk about your intention, background, and experience in yoga. From this, we can adopt a series of sessions that suit your personal needs and your preferred yoga styled. ABOUT CAMILA I started yoga when I was a teenager. My mom suggested me to go with her to help me cope with stress. Since I went to my first vinyasa class (a dynamic yoga class), in 2007, I was completely hooked. After a few years, I also started Ashtanga classes, the modern form of Indian classical yoga. In 2018, I decided to take the opportunity to become a teacher and obtained my 200h vinyasa training . In 2019 I moved to Belgium, and apart from my daily work, I would like to share my yoga experience and learn from the students.
