I grew up in France within two cultures, my mum is French and my dad – Vietnamese. Since childhood, I have always been interested in spirituality, meditation and everything related to it. My curiosity brought me to my first yoga class at 12 years old…But decided at that time that I wasn’t ready for it. Before getting back into yoga, I practiced diverse activities such as dancing, singing, Taekwondo and acting classes.When I was 16, I turned to Reiki to heal my recurrent stomach pain and had my initiation Level 1. From that moment, I got convinced that energy was all around us, in all beings everywhere. In 2015, I decided to study NLP to understand what is really happening inside our minds. Since then, I have developed a real passion for the mind/body connection. From 2011, I started to practice yoga regularly in London and got more and more into it. It is in 2018 that I accomplished my 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Dubai. I decided to start teaching straight away and was thrilled to start the collaboration with Zen Yoga – one of the first and highly rated yoga studios in Dubai. Within a month I grew the number of classes that I covered from a couple of sessions a week to permanent teacher Hatha/Vinyasa Yoga, Hatha Beginners & private classes. In December 2019, I decided to go to India to follow 100 hours of Ashtanga Yoga Teacher Training with the yoga school Shree Hari Yoga in Gokarna.
In 2020, I moved to Barcelona for a job opportunity in Sales, in the hotel industry… and Covid 19 decided to take me to a totally different path. As I couldn’t work anymore, I decided to go back to study yoga philosophy and asanas from home. I spent the next couple of months reading, studying, teaching online yoga and it became clearer and clearer than I was done with the corporate world. I felt the need to nourish my soul, body and spirit, a calling that I have been ignoring for long. In August 2020, I came to Canary Island for 3 weeks of holiday… And I am still here, teaching in different yoga schools, mainly Hatha, Vinyasa and Yin Yoga.
I am currently getting my 300 YTT in Holistic Yoga, studying TCM yoga (Traditional Chinese Medicine), Ayuryoga and Yoga Miofascial with Helena Chacon Munoz, co-director of Yoga Kula Spain. Besides this, I have been working in hospitality sales in different cities in France and the UK and then Dubai and Barcelona.
I believe yoga is much more than a physical practice, it is a process of self-observation, self-regulation and transcendence.
