Who is the class for?
Hélène guides you with her creativity through a gentle Vinyasa flow. You may think that yoga is not for you? You need to let off steam. You may be neither slim nor flexible, or no longer young. You may not like wearing leggings. You may be unable to do the postures you see on the social networks. You may think you will feel ridiculous, etc. A lot of received ideas and limiting beliefs prevents us to try yoga! Testing it, is adopting it… Yoga is for you and for everyone else! You can wear whatever outfit in which you feel at ease. You work on your mobility and flexibility respecting your own body and its limits there and then. You breathe deeply, can surpass yourself without injury and relax your body and mind… Hélène's classes are accessible to all, beginners as well as those who have already practiced yoga before! One class will be in French and one class in English. All nationalities are welcome!
What can you expect?
We move our bodies in a sequence of postures on our breath. We link each movement and posture with our breathing. Our moves are fluent like the flowing water. Our flow may be soft or livelier depending on the intention of the practice. The series of yoga poses we realize progressively prepares us to enter a specific posture in the flow. Then counter poses stretch our body in the other way for balance. Finally, the relaxation loosen up our body and brings peace of mind. Hélène truly believes that breathing is a magnificent treasure of all humankind to let go and focus on what we are doing here and now. She provides guidance for tuning your respiratory instrument, synchronizing your inhales and exhales on your movements. This continuous exercise helps us to give our best on the mat but also in life while listening to our body.
Vinyasa yoga with
Hélène
Yoga does not leave me since I discovered its benefits on my body and mind in 2018. With a body drained of its energy and a restless mind after a long day of work as an engineer, this practice has been liberating. I released tensions and emotions of the day. I then felt full of energy and at peace with myself, embracing the present. I have been amazed by the result!
​
After a number of classes, my personal yoga practice started. A kind of morning routine enabling me to gently waken my body, calm my mind and approach my day with trust and enthusiasm! I immediately wanted to share this incredible experience. I first exchanged on this transformation with others. And very soon, I wanted to understand why yoga made this change to myself.
​
This is how I followed a Vinyasa yoga teacher training in 2020 in order to deepen my knowledge and practice of yoga but also of myself. During this training, I rapidly realized that I also wished to transmit the power of yoga. Today, I would like to provide a caring and thoughtful guidance so that you live your own yoga experience. I want to offer you an invigorating yoga combining gentleness, breathing and intensity.
