To join a yoga class ? Oh no, I wasn’t interested at all ! Until my friend Jivan invited me to participate online, during the lockdown. Since then, I love it ! It’s a time to take care of myself without leaving the house. The calm atmosphere, the breathwork that helps me to be calmer, the therapeutic approach, the variety of postures and the personalized suggestions… Icing on the cake : the laughter yoga, the sharing of stories during the relaxation and the good jokes

After having practiced yoga for several years (with A. Van Lysbeth) and stopped for a long time, I needed and wanted to live again with yoga. I was looking for a teacher and I met Ivan by chance. I found in him the person who met my expectations, namely a solid personal, practical and spiritual training, an attentive and precise guidance of the sessions, proposals of varied postures adapted to my level and the desire to transmit. And with a smile too !
