Go further in your yoga practice thanks to various events presented by the studio’s teachers. Our workshops and series, respectively conducted over one or more sessions, cover specific topics and allow you to gain a better understanding of them.
Our annual retreat is the perfect opportunity to get away from it all and reconnect with your senses.
A moment for yourself aimed at clearing and relaxing the face, especially the neck, jaws and forehead, through simple and gentle techniques from Fasciatherapy and lymphatic drainage. Manual maneuvers combined with the Gua Sha approach (which means scraping or dislodging stagnant Qi energy) will also be proposed in order to clear, relax, tone and enhance the face and neck. The self-massage session will be followed by a rejuvenating and soothing therapeutic and restorative practice that also promotes relaxation of the neck and release of the upper body.
*You will preferably need a Gua Sha tool for the workshop, but a simple tablespoon can do. Example of Gua Sha

Inversions refer to postures in which the hips are higher than the heart. They result in a generous supply of blood to the head, which revitalizes the entire body. Using the support of the wall and other props, we will explore the principles of alignment necessary to safely perform handstand postures. In doing so, we will pay particular attention to the playfulness of these postures, which are sources of energy, strength and joy.
*For this workshop, it’s preferable, safer, to privilege a studio presence over live broadcast.
**To follow the workshop at home, you must already have an established practice of inverted postures.

This workshop begins with some basic anatomical notions about breathing. Then separate work will be offered for passive breathing and for active breathing. Thus, the first part of the workshop will be dedicated to the deepening of our passive breathing, that is to say abdominal, using especially imaging and deep relaxation. Then, in the second part, you’ll be introduced to different approaches to active breathing, which is used for movement and during physical activity. In short, this workshop will present breathing as a powerful tool for relaxation and as an undisputed guide to movement.

Join Marie-Daphné for her favorite type of workshops with you: long sessions of deep rest and well-deserved loving-kindness. We will slow down and settle in postures, in order to access inner places of presence, tranquility and surrender.
Also called “supported” yoga, restorative yoga uses props in order to remain comfortable in yoga postures and to allow the effects to be felt deeply, especially in the organs and the nervous system.
