More about me...
I have been a yoga therapist since 2007, when I started to work primarily with people having life threatening illnesses. I began to work in San Francisco through specialized organisations and hospitals. I continued my practice in a physical therapy office in Hawaii for a year before working more closely with horses.
I received an education in science in France, then I trained in psychology and body therapy in Canada and California. I graduated from the Iyengar Yoga Institute of San Francisco and received additional training in therapeutic yoga from Cheri Clampett. I also has certifications in Physical Therapy (PTAide), Ayurvedic massage and Marmas therapy.
My approach is based on love, respect and compassion. My motivation is to help people to get in touch with themselves, to get in touch with their strength, beauty and the life within.
