Notre Philosophie

La capacité de simplifier signifie d’éliminer l'inutile afin que le nécessaire puisse parler.
~Hans Hofmann

Yoga est l’art d’expérimenter, de pratiquer et de ressentir. L’esprit se repose et la sagesse du corps est libérée pour se révéler. La guérison vient de la synthèse du corps et de l’esprit dans un espace sûr.
Nombreuses écoles et philosophies, au-delà du dogme et des idées préconçues, nous apportent les enseignements à la simplicité en fonction de la personne avec laquelle nous travaillons.

Notre Education

Nous avons été très chanceux de pouvoir étudier pendant des nombreuses années avec les plus importants maîtres yogiques du monde. Nous croyons qu’un bon enseignant est quelqu’un qui a de l’expérience, de l’éducation, de l’ouverture d’esprit et une profonde attention ; quelqu’un qui puisse aider l’élève à tirer profit des techniques (asanas, méditation, pranayama, visualisation) de le ramener vers la conscience, de créer et d’entretenir une pratique personnelle avec de la contemplation et de la curiosité.

"La sagesse du coeur peut être trouvé dans n'importe quelle circonstance, sur toute la planète, ronde ou carrée. Ca ne vient pas de la connaissance et des images de perfection, ni par comparaison ou jugement. Mais en voyant avec des yeux rempli de sagesse et d'attention du coeur, en touchant avec compassion tout ce qui existe dans notre monde."- Jack Kornfield

Biography

Careen Cassir

Yoga, Qigong & Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner
For over 20 years, I have taught yoga to adults and children, moving through many styles and never losing the curiosity to keep learning. Somewhere along the path, one question became central to my work: how do our emotions and mental states shape our pain, our aging, our disease, our sense of wellbeing?
I found my answer in the ancient science of meridians - Traditional Chinese Medicine - combined with Hatha and Yin Yoga. Learning from my friend and teacher Nathalie Keusseoglou, and further on I developed my own approach to opening and healing, one that meets every body and every level where it is. I’m dedicated to understanding the physical and emotional weight of modern life, and to sharing that understanding - in the classes I teach, the individuals I work with, and the institutions I partner with. 
Today, my work takes four forms:
* Collective classes, blending movement, breath, and TCM principles
* Private one-to-one sessions: Qigong, Tuina, acupressure, and clinical TCM protocols
* Institutional partnerships, bringing this work into organisations and communities
* On-line program YoQi

Certified yoga teacher: Hatha Yoga, Mini Me Yoga, Y.O.G.A for YOUTH, Academy of Mindfulness Teaching (AMT), teacher trainings with Sarah Powers - Yin Yoga, Kendreka: Certified Practitioner of Acupressure and Qigong Tuina, practitioner of Psychotherapy Globalist
My approach is intuitive, precise, and rooted in tradition. I work with the body’s own meridians and rhythms, meeting each person exactly where their life and their energy stand today. I believe healing is not one-size fits all - it is a language each body speaks differently, and my role is to help translate it. 

Nathalie Keusseoglou

Somatic and Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner

I am a yoga and psychology practitioner with a long standing professional background in trauma-informed work, somatic practices and mindfulness.
My work supports individuals navigating stress, trauma, and life transitions, integrating psychological understanding with body based approaches. I bring both depth of human insight and real world professional experience, shaped by years of practice and earlier work in corporate environments.

Professional background

My professional path bridges psychology, yoga, and trauma informed practice. Over many years, I have worked with individuals and groups in a variety of settings, supporting emotional regulation, resilience and embodied awareness.

I have worked with individuals and groups affected by trauma, including those with lived experience of abuse and marginalisation. My work emphasises safety, dignity and autonomy, integrating psychological understanding with body based and mindfulness practices.

Earlier in my career, I worked in corporate environments which gives me a grounded understanding of workplace pressures, performance demands, and organisational culture. This experience continues to inform my work, particularly with professionals experiencing stress, burnout and major life transitions
