My Journey
Originally from Malaysia, I have been moving around the globe with my wonderful French husband and 4 boys for the past 22 years. I started my traveling adventures in the United States, France, Dubai and recently back to France in the west suburbs of Paris.
My entrepreneurship, international HR and psychology background brought me to create various companies related people-support. Having a big family made me a more conscious to lead a healthy and active lifestyle. I practiced everything I could from stand-up paddle (SUP), surf, SUP-surf, scuba-dive, fitness classes and yoga.
My own yoga practice is inspired by exploring movements to create challenging flows and nourishing Yin. It is all about finding a balanced practice with intention and attention, on and off the mat. I enjoy inspiring the others to improve their long-term wellness and fitness goals.

Practice
Yoga is accessible to everyone regardless of flexibility, age, or fitness level. A regular yoga practice will help build strength, flexibility, and reduce stress. Thus you will benefit from an enhanced healthy and balanced lifestyle physically, mentally, and spiritually.
Slow Vinyasa
A slow paced, alignment-based class with breathing exercises to get comfortable on the mat. Synchronization of the breath with a creatively designed flow will leave your mind and body feeling centered, focused, calm and refreshed.
Beginners to all levels.
- 60 min class
Vinyasa
Faster paced, dynamic, and fun class to challenge your mind and body. Adapted to the student's level, the synchronization of the breath with a creatively designed flow will leave you feeling strong, energized and renewed. Be prepared to sweat a little.
All levels.
- 75 min class
Yin Yoga
A still, deep and profound meditative practice. It involves mindful stretching on the floor with poses held from 2 to 10 minutes. Poses usually target the hips, legs, spine, and sometimes upper body. Good complement to improve any dynamic yoga practice or sports. Students will ultimately know themselves better through sensations, feelings and emotions.
Some benefits:
- May reduce stress,
- Good alternative for meditation,
- May maintain or improve flexibility and everyday movements,
- May help to deeply relax,
- May help boost the flow of energy,
- May improve mind and body balance,
- May be an alternative if you have injuries that prevent you from practicing sports or dynamic yoga,

BEFORE CLASS
-
Wear form-fitting but comfortable outfits made from very stretchable and breathable materials. Slow vinyasa and vinyasa classes require breath coordination with lots of movements like twisting, bending, and possibly inversions.
-
If you wear leggings, do a mirror check to make sure they are not see through / not transparent.
-
If you are coming to an early morning class, you may eat a light breakfast at least 1.5 hours before class. For other classes, 2 hours before.
-
Arrive 5 - 10 minutes before class starts to settle onto your mat. Perhaps take a few moments to calm your mind and meditate to bring awareness and presence to your whole self.
-
Arrange your belongings in the lockers, including your footwear and cell phone. On cold days, you may keep your socks until you get on the mat.
-
YIN Yoga students should wear comfortable and warm outfits as it is a "still practice": warm sweaters, leg warmers, extra thick socks, and scarves !
-
Be mindful with other yogis and avoid loud conversations in the practice studio.
-
Do make a trip to the loo before class as a full bowel would make certain poses uncomfortable to do.
-
You could drink a little before class. Avoid drinking large amounts of water before and during practice as this might make you feel uncomfortable.
-
Remember that yoga is non-competitive and you should not feel pain during practice. Keep an open mind, listen to your body, and let the energy flow.
-
Let me know if you have any questions at all !
