It is an opportunity to organize thoughts and focus on the here and now. In addition, yoga strengthens the body and improves mood. It has a positive effect on the flexibility and balance of our body.
What are the benefits of this practice? First of all, it helps to strengthen the human body, build endurance and willpower. This yoga helps to relax and improves the ability to cope with stress. It has a positive effect on blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Due to the diversity of this practice, it improves muscle flexibility. Also, this practice fills the body with energy, boosts immunity and improves your posture.
This practice is suitable for both women and men of all ages. The practice is a bit more complicated than hatha yoga, but it is also suitable for beginners. It is possible to move further in terms of complexity, using more dynamics and increasing the complexity of asanas.

Meditation Sessions to Relax, Eliminate Stress and HealThe meditation sessions I share are perfect for anyone who is dealing with a lot of stress and anxiety, willing to slow down and reconnect with the space of inner peace. These sessions are designed especially for you to best suit your unique needs. We always add some breathing exercises at the beginning of the practice. Conscious breathing is one of the best tools to relax, let go of worry, stress and anger and really get into a beautiful, peaceful state of mind. We start with a short chat to get to know each other better and see what you would like to work on and then I guide you through a grounding breathing exercise to release any tension, clear the body and mind and then we move into a gentle guided meditation. This session is perfect for anyone who is dealing with too much stress, but also for those looking to deepen their regular meditation practice. We also focus on releasing any negative emotions stuck in your mind and body. This session will nourish your soul and leave you feeling amazing ;)

At the same time that you strengthen your physical body, you also increase your capacity for conscious response to life's challenges.
I am trained in different styles of yoga: Kundalini Yoga, Hatha, Vinyasa, Restorative, Yin Yoga. I can guide you in any of them according to your goals.
In the classes you will learn to breathe better, connect or reconnect with your body, learn how it works, how to bend in a way that prevents injuries, how your back works and how to lengthen and stretch it. Maybe things you had never told yourself, but you will notice an enormous physical, mental and spiritual benefit.

Science , Chemistry, Biology ,Public Health and Health BasicsOnce upon a time, I found science, math and health courses a bit tricky, just like you might. But guess what? I didn't let that stop me. Instead, I turned the tough parts into stepping stones for success.
I figured out a way to understand science and math by breaking them into smaller, easier parts. It wasn't always easy, but I didn't give up. Those challenges became the basis for my journey to success.
Now, imagine this: I'm not just a tutor; I'm someone who conquered the subjects that once seemed really hard. Science, math, and health-related courses became my friends in life, leading me to a place where I want to help you succeed.
I know what it's like, and I know we can do this together. Let's make your learning journey a story of success

Dance & Therapy session | Transcendental EmbodimentAre you seeking for a creative and uplifting way to consciously reconnect with yourself ? Transcendental Embodiment is a dance practice that will guide you to embrace your emotions and help you to reach your true authentic self. Through meditative dances, guided imageries, and energy healing modalities.
I am here to support and guide you in your process of discovering your inner power through:
- chakras alignment, guided meditation, breathing exercises
- self-expression & subjective experience through dance
- expanding your heart space, emotional awareness, and healing in movement and dance
- release of stress, judgment, and trapped emotions
- grounding, self-care, resilience
- and more...
The sessions are tailored to the specific needs and capabilities of each individual.
*Dance can be a practice of introspection, transformation, and transcendence of one’s subjective experiences into a worldwide journey.
*
As a professional dancer, teacher, and performance maker I am introspectively processing each working day in consciousness, listening to my upcoming emotions, triggers, or anxiety when it comes to be physically and mentally performative in a team, or as a freelance artist.
Instead of suppressing these emotions and creating energetical and mental blockages (that can end up into somatic pains or burn-out): we should pay more attention to these inner warning messages and strengthen our emotional intelligence to be able to cope with the infinitesimal external stimulus and daily-stress of our very fast lives.
It can be challenging to sense with clarity what is the origin of some feelings of frustration, unsatisfaction, discomfort, or grief, and it can be intimidating or discouraging to walk alone on that path.
This class helps you to commit to your better-being, presence to oneself countering wellness procrastination.
* What do you need to feel lighter, brighter, or happier in your everyday life? *
* What is your self-achievement potentiality? *
- For who? : For anyone who enjoys movement and dance, and desires a better connection and understanding with their moving bodies. / One-to-one or group sessions.
- Where? : Online via SKYPE or at the student's location.
Values: Integrity, Transparency, Respect, Cooperation
* About TE :
Transcendental Embodiment (TE) is the result of three years of research and development. Merging from a movement philosophy research entitled Behind & Beyond, to its phenomenological understanding. The metaphysical unity of the tangible and intangible bodies expounds on the undeniable relationships between those in the physical realm. The tangible body (the material vehicle), the intangibles bodies (psychological, emotional, energetical, and spiritual). As a dance healing practice, guiding the practitioner to conscious corporeality, and subjective emotional understanding, this methodology can also be a useful tool to improve artistry and technical skills on a deeper level, widening mindful creativity, awareness, empathy, and sensitivity.
(TE) movement and dance methodology combines a meditative approach in stillness and through movement, awakening the mind, spreading the awareness into different body parts; putting a specific emphasis on improvisation skills, and musicality, following energy impulses and intuitive movement and increasing the flow of energy. Inviting the practitioners to practice resilience, non-self definition, non-judgment, self-care and self-love, integrity, and acceptance to overcome technical, physical, and mental limits holding the practitioner from his self-achievement potentiality. This approach builds itself crescendo on subjective movement reflexivity and introspective journey through the following process:
* The four steps:
Being | Investigation | Exploration | Dedication
Unconscious - Subconscious - Conscious - Transcendental Consciousness
