Bachelor's degree in contemporary dance; she devoted herself professionally for more than ten years and it is quite naturally that she reoriented herself in yoga, fascinated and interested in this search for balance between muscular strength and flexibility, but especially in the centrality of breathing.

From her experience in yoga and meditation, she teaches the six perfections of yoga: discipline, devotion, letting go, absorption, self-realization, as well as the impermanence of all things. She is aware of giving her students a space where they feel safe to experience breath synchronization, body awareness and meditation.

By supervising her students in a private class, she gives the opportunity to listen and feel her body to regain a sense of belonging and well-being.

By teaching tools such as yoga positions, body alignment and breathing, the student in his private lessons will gradually understand his deep connection with his body and mind and find a naturalness in his practice.
