Prerequisites

No yoga experience required! This first level is made especially for beginners.

You will need a yoga mat or a rectangular towel, a blanket and a pillow.

LEVEL ONE

My mission is to make yoga accessible to everyone! When I saw that the resources for the blind and visually impaired community was limited, I had to take action.

This program will teach you everything you need to know to feel confident enough to take any yoga class anywhere! This is the first level of two. This first level speaks about all the foundations of yoga and introduces the flow between postures.

In yoga, there's a type of practice that yogis do that is called "withdrawal of the senses". This practice allows for a much deeper spiritual experience, it is used usually by sighted people by putting blindfolds over their eyes. This is what I'll be leading you into, a profound connection with yourself. I can't wait for you to discover your unique spirituality and strengths!

In this first level, the recordings are shortened to build up your concentration gradually. You are always welcomed to listen to your own unique needs as well. Once you have completed these 7hrs of content, you'll be ready for Level Two.

LEVEL TWO

In Level Two we will be exploring longer classes, more sequencing, more tools to deal with anxiety and we will top it all off with a unique Bhakti Yoga experience! Level Two is where you gain the confidence and the skill to move through a yoga class ease-fully. You'll also start to experience the magic of yoga! I'm so excited that you've found this resource and I am dedicated to supporting you along the way. I can't wait to start this journey with you! Are you ready? Join me and let’s embrace our radiant selves!

About Your Instructor

I discovered the magic of yoga during my rehabilitation after having experienced a traumatic accident.

It was in solitude and when I was unable to move that I realized how sublime life is. Things I had taken for granted suddenly turned into miracles.

With this ultimate appreciation for life, I drastically changed my life course. Now, every day, I become what my intuition guides me to become.

In my yoga classes, you can expect an experience filled with reflections that will allow you to feel supported in your practice, but also in your life. For me, yoga has nothing to do with postures, but rather with the connection we create with ourselves. Know that you will be welcomed with love no matter what state you arrive in my classes. Looking forward to meeting you soon.
