Certified English Speaking Vinyasa Yoga Private/Group Instructor specializing in Asanas & Pranayama

I am a professional dancer who has completed the 200 Yoga Teacher Training at Samyak Yoga in Mysore, India. My training is focused on the physical & mental state within yoga as well as breathing techniques called Pranayama to assist the practice and improve overall well-being. All of my private and group classes focus on making the yoga practice accessible for all practitioners from absolute beginners to advanced students.

I believe Yoga is a shared experience that requires equal commitment from the teacher as well as the student. I make sure that students have a solid understanding of the postures, their benefits as well as the transitions between then to create a strong practice on and off the mat. I am always prepared to challenge the student as well as adapt to their needs.

About Me

There is never a dull moment in class! Each specific class and lesson plan are catered to specific age groups from Pre-K to adults. They consist of engaging movement activities, warm-up, and complex movement combinations in all styles includig ballet, jazz, hip hop, stepping, modern, contemporary and social dance. I am an energetic and patient teacher who seriously takes into account the needs and skill level of the student in preparing the lesson plans and material.

My use of dance vocabulary and physical demonstrations allow me to teach the material accurately and effectively. My positive attitude and constant words of encouragement keep students motivated and engaged in the lesson. Students will increase their knowledge and physical vocabulary of the movement style and leave each lesson a better dancer, performer and person.

I encourage students to bring writing materials to each lesson to take notes for any learned vocabulary and each lesson will follow with a recorded video of the movement for the students to refer to until the next lesson.

Spiritual mind and body yoga from the beginner to the advanced level
Many individuals tend to associate yoga solely with its physical aspects, involving stretches and poses aimed at enhancing flexibility and posture. However, yoga encompasses more than just the physical. It possesses a profound influence on one's life by fostering transformative shifts in the mind through three distinctive pathways: * Spiritual Awakening * Mental Focus and Clarity * Self-Discipline and Control

Tim
Hatha Yoga and Vinyasa flow classes (Teacher certified by the Yoga Alliance)
My lessons are flexible and I adapt to your needs I feel the abilities and needs of my students, and I adapt my sequences accordingly. Generally, my classes are dynamic and invigorating. I work with the breath, and the student will find that a strong connection between their body and mind is accessible with sustained and conscientious practice. I would also do an inventory after a few sessions which will stimulate you to progress smoothly. My classes will focus on toning your body. Sustained practice will allow you to relieve and prevent chronic pain such as back pain, joint pain, while also using breathing and relaxation techniques. In doing so, you will be able in particular to straighten your posture (spine), you could refine your silhouette, soften your hips, etc. After a few regular classes, you will be fit, enthusiastic, open and positive. Yoga promotes moderation and wisdom. My goal is to meet your expectations and offer you a pleasant time at home, or in a group (as in a company). I gave daily classes every weeks for the last five years. The diversity of bodies and needs I was lucky enough to encounter allow me to adapt to your needs, and we will find together solutions for whatever are your willing and needs in 2024. Teaching is for me a vocation, and I will be delighted to walk by your side for a part of your yoga journey, for a consistent and safe yoga practice. Since 2023, i’m also delivering Sports Massage (ITEC Certified Level 3 Sports Massage Therapy from the Pro Active school of London). (this text is translated from english)

Yoga - Vinyasa Flow and Forrest Yoga, breath work, body awareness
My classes will introduce you to the beauty of flowing sequences and how to connect you breath with your movements. I will focus on energizing your body through core strenghth and dynamic flows or more grounding standing series. Explore your body through movement in a light and playful way and improve your flexibility while learning how to use your breath in a healing way. I'm offering private yoga sessions suitable for one person or small groups. Prices for small groups can be discussed. What I like about teaching: I'm interested in encouraging people to use their breath in an empowering and healing way. Further to that I like the combination of flowing movements and the cultivation of groundedness both with deep Ujjayi Breath. Through hands-on assists I like to support my students to get a deeper sensation of the pose and experience the borders of their bodies. In my classes I like to hold space for my students to experiment, discover their strength and to overcome fears.

Emma
Vinyasa Flow yoga classes all levels at home. A fluid, relaxing and catchy practice.
I took inspiration from the anatomy lessons of my teachers in India and Canada to create fluid, tonic and complementary Asanas, my aim being to guide a progressive, captivating and controlled practice. My teaching is accompanied by theoretical references to assist the student in understanding the relationship between body and mind. My classes are also fun and with a touch of humor because yoga is also wanting to do good and keep smiling! We can choose together themes according to your abilities, need and desire so that I can guide you in the practice that is best for you.

Bryan
Experienced personal trainer. yoga teacher, meditation holder, giving adapted and personalized movement classes.
The practice i teach is called primal movement and combines different techniques to keep the body in shape, well balanced, and functional. This practice can benefit anyone as it taps into the body's natural power to heal itself. Primal movement is a holistic approach to fitness that blends animal flow, locomotions, calisthenics, somatic movement, and yoga postures. It is aimed to restore the body's natural flexibility to fascia and muscles. It helps bring a balanced daily practice to the body, ensuring that it moves efficiently and effectively. Primal movement is a unique combination of different practices that enhances the body's functionality. Thanks to my extensive experience in conducting various sport sessions, I have developed the ability to adapt to the unique needs and preferences of different clients. I recognize that every individual has different goals, fitness levels, and schedules which require a tailored approach to their training. I always strive to communicate effectively with each client to understand their specific needs, and utilize my experience to create a personalized program that is conducive to achieving their goals. Furthermore, my adaptability and flexibility in my training methods ensure that my clients receive the maximum benefit from every session, while feeling motivated and challenged to push themselves harder. The guided meditations i give are more like inner journeys to help people dive deeper within themselves and get to better inner intimacy. Diving within to have a better understanding of who you are and create a more harmonious being, in adequacy with him or herself. Want to get in touch and book a private or group session ?

Agata
Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga classes. Primary and Half primary series
I’m a professional musician - a classically educated pianist who has completed the 200h Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Training in Mexico and became a certified yoga teacher this year. My teaching is focused on helping students to develop their physical & mental well-being. That in ashtanga yoga tradition can be achieved through the connection between asanas ( physical postures) with proper breathing. I believe Yoga is a shared experience that requires equal commitment from the teacher as well as the student. I make sure that students have a solid understanding of the postures and their benefits. I adapt the Asthanga sequence to students' needs but I’m always ready to challenge them if I feel like it’s the right time. I hope to see you on the mat :)
