September 26-28, 2025, Chaumont-sur-Loire Weekend Yoga Retreat September 26-28, 2025, Chaumont-sur-Loire How does a yoga retreat in the Loire Valley sound?  We'll have five 2-hour sessions of yoga, beginning Friday morning and concluding on Sunday after lunch. This is a small group retreat (maximum 8). We'll be practicing yoga in a small art gallery that is beautifully situated along the river, just below the Chaumont castle.  The Chateau  will be in the midst of its annual Garden Festival, and there is a bike trail along the river with a place nearby to rent bikes, if that sounds interesting to any of us. There are local restaurants as well as a small grocery, so we can combine eating out and eating in as we wish.  Yoga program:  200€ per person Housing, food, transportation and any additional activities are not included.  Bienvenue!

Fall 2025 Dates coming soon!  PranaStretch is profound, subtle, breath-focused work that keeps us moving throughout the class, gently but intensely, harnessing the mind rigorously to the breath as it moves through the body. Largely based on the floor, PranaStretch is the practice that has served as the foundation of all my work in dance, yoga and the martial arts.  Based on the teaching of Eric Beeler and combining elements from yoga, the martial arts, pilates, Niklaus and Alexander techniques, PranaStretch has been for me a source of deep core strength, refined articulation, easeful extension, powerful projection, and a sense of wholeness, peace of mind and joy in life.  This is an in-person 2-hour workshop in Paris near Porte Maillot. Space is limited for this small group practice. This workshop is possible to attend online if you have participated at least once in an in-person class or workshop with me.  40€ (with a discounted rate of 30€ for those with limited in...

Welcome! These videos are accessible by anyone.  Make sure to listen to your body and modify or reject any proposition you need to. In this work, we are always seeking stability combined with ease, rather than pain or stress. If you feel pain or strain in the joints, light-headed or dizzy, these are clear signs from your body that you must modify, ease up, slow down, or outright reject the practice.  If you are or have been dealing with any injury, illness or disease (including high blood pressure, glaucoma, joint issues, severe migraines, or any recent interventions like dental work), check with your doctor to make sure it is okay for you to practice yoga or do physical exercise.  If you would like to share these exercises, ideas or principles with others, great! All we ask is that, when you do, you acknowledge who you received this transmission from. In many instances, this will be me (Ann Moradian), but in other instances it will be someone else who is acknowledged in ...

January 24-26, 2024, in the Petite Camargue, Provence Come gather in a charming retreat centre just outside Aigues-Morte, a medieval town dating back to the 13 th  century. With roots going as far back as 102 BC during the Roman period, Aigues-Mortes is rich in history, raw natural beauty and vibrant wildlife.  We'll practice yoga 2 hours in the mornings, and 2 hours in the evenings, suspending time to replenish and resource, tending our inner light to help carry us through this deepest part of our northern winter. Our practice is gentle, deep and fortifying. We'll take the opportunity to explore and experience 'balance,' and ponder what this might mean when we come at it upside-down, inside-out and sideways.                                                               ...
