One-to-one, couple or small group classes at the Yoga Studio, at your home or online
If you are in Ariege, in the areas of Mirepoix, Lavelanet, Tarascon, Ax-Le-Therme, Foix, Pamiers, we can meet in person to plan your discovery journey of Yoga
YOGA, UNDERSTOOD AS A PHILOSOPHY AND SPIRITUAL PRACTICE, HAS ALWAYS BEEN TAUGHT INDIVIDUALLY. THE TEACHER “TAKES CHARGE” OF THE STUDENT, GUIDING HIM OR HER, ACCORDING TO THEIR NEEDS, ALONG A PATH OF PSYCHOPHYSICAL WELL-BEING.
One-to-one lessons are therefore not just a variation of group lessons, but a journey towards the student’s wellbeing.
The class is developed precisely on the basis of individual characteristics and needs, who will benefit on several levels, (physical, emotional and psychological), the regenerating action that Yoga is able to exert on each;
The teacher’s focus is on the student, in a context that allows the best intervention on the body and postural level, favoring the dissolution of blocks and tensions;
Dialogue and confrontation with the teacher can be developed freely and openly, in ways that are not compatible with a group context, in which no one can be the centre of attention, as happens during a one-to-one session;
The teacher takes care of your wellbeing, gradually developing practices that you can carry out independently as well;
The time and days of One-to-One Yoga lessons are agreed on a case-by-case basis according to your needs.
The classes can be done in person (at the Yoga Studio or at your home)* and online. The on line modality gives you the opportunity to practice in the comfort of your home or chosen place. *If you are in Ariège (09) in the region of Mirepoix, Pamiers, Lavelanet, Tarascon, Ax-Le- Therme, Foix, Carcassonne
One-to-One Yoga classes allows you to integrate the founding principles of the Yogic Tradition with psychological approaches and techniques such as counseling or coaching.
“Each of us is a unique and unrepeatable thread in the intricate web of life and is here to make a contribution.”

Yoga for seniors is an activity that restores vigor, flexibility, mobility and above all helps to improve the quality of life for the over 60s and 70s. Yoga for seniors is developed around breath control and a mix of gentle and graduated movements. Contrary to common thinking, a simple and slow discipline like yoga is perfect for seniors, who need to keep moving ( even if only for a few hours a week), and it is also a great time for cohesion and socialization.
Yoga for seniors is a valuable aid for chronic pain related to arthritis, osteoporosis, and the progressive stiffness and deformation of the spine. It helps cardiovascular activity, posture, muscle and joint flexibility. In addition, the relaxing functions of yoga helps freeing the mind and removing the everyday stress, anxiety and depression.
Yoga for seniors is a perfect discipline to cheer up heart and mind: through a series of slow exercises and controlled breathing the heart rate is kept low; mood and sleep improve. The student starts a journey towards the self-discovery of his/body as well as its potential, regaining self-esteem and self-confidence.
All classes can be organized both at the Yoga Studio, at your home* and on line.

What is ‘Yoga Therapy’ or ‘Yoga Cikitsā’?
ONE SPEAKS OF ‘YOGA THERAPY’ OR ‘YOGA CIKITSĀ’ WHEN THE PRACTICE OF YOGA AIMS TO PROMOTE THE PROCESS OF INDIVIDUAL GROWTH AND EMANCIPATION BY YOGA-RELATED TEACHINGS AND PRACTICES, WHICH GO BEYOND ASANAS (OR PHYSICAL POSITIONS).
According to the philosophy of yoga, the human being is a system made of different dimensions (body, breath, mind, intellect and emotions) in constant interaction with each other.
When all dimensions are harmoniously integrated and balanced, the individual is in a ‘State of Yoga’. Yoga therapy is therefore the process of enabling individuals to progress towards greater health and well-being through the use of yoga.
Yoga has been included in the ‘mind-body techniques’ and is now considered a therapeutic technique that complements, but does not replace, medical-pharmacological therapies.
