Bienvenue et welcome !  ( Version anglais en dessous) Être présent à chaque instant de notre vie est une célébration de la vie. Cela peut être un défi, car la vie (comme nous le savons) est pleine de toutes sortes de défis. Il faut du courage et de la fermeté pour faire face à tout ce que nous ressentons. Il faut de l’honnêteté et de la compassion pour trouver un équilibre. Être présent dans nos vies nécessite une volonté de se transformer en permanence. La vie n'est jamais tranquille. La vie bouge. La vie nous bouge.  Être présent à chaque instant alors que nous bougeons et sommes émus dans notre vie est la seule chose qui vaut vraiment la peine d'être faite. Être présent tout au long de notre vie augmente notre conscience de la dynamique toujours en jeu entre nous et les autres. Être présent dans nos vies est le fondement de l’amour et de la sagesse. C'est pourquoi j'enseigne le yoga.  Le yoga est fondé sur ces mêmes qualités de courage et de fermeté, d’honnêteté et...

Integral Hatha Yoga  – Aimed toward managing the mind through meditative practice of  asana  (physical postures),  pranayama  (breathing practices), dharana (concentration),  pratyahara  (quieting of the senses) and dhyana (meditation), it may also include  mantra  (chanting) and  netyavyamam  (eye exercises). Hatha Yoga balances both the generative and receptive energies of the body-mind, and encourages stability and ease in all that we do.  Hatha Flow  – Embracing all aspects of Hatha Yoga, Hatha Flow  moves through traditional yoga postures fluidly from one position to the next, incorporating breath into a moving practice. This dynamic approach can be excellent for balancing strength, stability and ease, while improving joint health and agility. While  Hatha Flow  tends to be gentler than  Vinyasa  styles (which tend toward the athletic), it remains dynamic and toning.  PranaStretch ...

Yoga is “the stilling of the whirling of the mind.” The word yoga comes from the root word, yuj (Sanskrit), meaning union , or to yoke . Yoga is often defined as union, and in a physical practice, we begin by uniting the attention and the breath in the body. Georg Feuerstein’s Wheel of Yoga (from The Yoga Tradition ) illustrates the many paths of yoga (the spokes), with the shared outer hub of the yamas and niyamas (the ethical practices), and the common aim depicted by the inner wheels of samadhi (enstasy) and transcendence of the "egotropic" consciousness to realise the Self. The Wheel of Yoga, from Georg Feuerstein's The Yoga Tradition . All physical yoga practices, most popular in the west, fall under the category of Hatha Yoga . Common names for yoga (like Integral Yoga , Vinyasa Yoga , Iyengar Yoga , Kundalini , Bikram , ShinGaia Yoga , etc.) are different schools or approaches to yoga within the larger genre of Hatha Yoga.

From the whole, the whole becomes manifest. From the whole, if the whole is negated, what remains is again the whole. Cela est infini. Ceci est infini De l'infini est apparu l'infini. En prenant l'infini de l'infini,  il demeure comme le seul infini. Il demeure le même,  même si l'infini est apparu à parti de lui.

Ann Moradian:  "How do you bring the sacred space of your being with you everywhere you go, so that no matter where you are in your life that’s always with you, and that just becomes ordinary...  exquisitely, deeply, humanly, beautifully ordinary – wholeness . I think my aim is the wholeness, more than anything that would necessarily be visible..."
