Yoga - Vinyasa Flow and Forrest Yoga, breath work, body awareness

From 77.71 £ /h

My classes will introduce you to the beauty of flowing sequences and how to connect you breath with your movements. I will focus on energizing your body through core strenghth and dynamic flows or more grounding standing series. Explore your body through movement in a light and playful way and improve your flexibility while learning how to use your breath in a healing way.

I'm offering private yoga sessions suitable for one person or small groups.

Prices for small groups can be discussed.

What I like about teaching:
I'm interested in encouraging people to use their breath in an empowering and healing way. Further to that I like the combination of flowing movements and the cultivation of groundedness both with deep Ujjayi Breath. Through hands-on assists I like to support my
students to get a deeper sensation of the pose and experience the borders of their bodies. In my classes I like to hold space for my students to experiment, discover their strength and to overcome fears.

Our body is our voice - The benefits of Voice Coaching

Why is voice coaching important?
To facilitate better communication and create better working outcomes we need to use the voice appropriately to engage, unite and lead. The human voice reflects the entire well-being and has a direct impact on your audience, employees and clients. Understanding how the voice is used can be useful to Human Resources for training and recruitment. How to make the most of your voice and the influence it can expedite?
Learn different vocal techniques and engage a full-body voice support to find an authentic voice. Speaking in a tone or manner that is situation-appropriate is important to get the best from your staff, colleagues, stakeholders and suppliers.

What is the approach of a holistic voice work?
Holistic voice coaching uses the entire body to support a confident and strong voice. Breathing techniques improve concentration and focus and help to control emotions that can harm our presentation. Strengthening physical exercises and soothing vocalizations help to deepen body awareness and relaxation. SoundBody offers a complete method to strengthen and connect the entire instrument body to find an effortless voice production for a meaningful performance.

Testimonials
How did this work help you in your realms of work/life?

„Being a coach, facilitator and trainer I wanted to give my voice more power and control. My lessons with Laura really helped me with that. The combination of her expertise in voice control and yoga breathing made wonder for my voice. I can control the tone the depth and the sound my voice has in all moments.“
Roberta Manoni, Coach, Facilitator and Trainer (Brussels, Belgium)

„I took voice/ vocal coaching classes with Laura in early 2019, to prepare my candidature for the German Liberal party's election list for the European Parliament elections 2019, as I was the lead candidate of the liberal party in my home region Rhineland-Palatinate. The voice/ vocal coaching classes with Laura very much helped me to improve my speaking technique, to take better care of and to develop my voice, and to better understand the functioning of my voice – and my body in a broader sense.
Laura also taught me useful breathing/ respiration and relaxation techniques, which contributed to making me feel more at ease and comfortable when speaking in public, and also to manage the related stress in such situations. Laura's rich experience both as a singer and musician, vocal coach and yoga teacher, her very empathetic and sensitive nature, and her strong understanding of my specific needs in this situation, have been crucial to making these coaching classes extremely beneficial, insightful and useful for me. I can highly recommend Laura as a vocal coach to anyone interested in improving his/ her vocal and speaking techniques.“

I am a professional dancer who has completed the 200 Yoga Teacher Training at Samyak Yoga in Mysore, India. My training is focused on the physical & mental state within yoga as well as breathing techniques called Pranayama to assist the practice and improve overall well-being. All of my private and group classes focus on making the yoga practice accessible for all practitioners from absolute beginners to advanced students.

I believe Yoga is a shared experience that requires equal commitment from the teacher as well as the student. I make sure that students have a solid understanding of the postures, their benefits as well as the transitions between then to create a strong practice on and off the mat. I am always prepared to challenge the student as well as adapt to their needs.

Many individuals tend to associate yoga solely with its physical aspects, involving stretches and poses aimed at enhancing flexibility and posture. However, yoga encompasses more than just the physical. It possesses a profound influence on one's life by fostering transformative shifts in the mind through three distinctive pathways:
* Spiritual Awakening
* Mental Focus and Clarity
* Self-Discipline and Control

I was introduced to yoga at the age of 12/13 and ever since the practice has been in my life. I do have extensive knowledge on life style, nutrition (food is your medicine) and work out techniques in order to become better friends with yourself.

I was really passionate about what I have discovered in my journey and how it changed my life so i simply wanted to share this knowledge with people who are interested.

Therefore, I obtained my Ashtanga Vinyasa teacher training and Pranayama Breathing Techniques certificate in November 2019 in India.
Carried on with my practice in teaching and taking additional workshop classes in Sri Lanka and Bali.

I am able to teach all levels of Ashtanga, Vinyasa classes and I also do enjoy adding a bit of a yoga workout classes to keep a nice balance of strengthening of your body.

I enjoy one on one lessons ideally in order to truly grasp what you need so that i can develop tailor made classes for you. If you request a group session with your friends it will be max of 4 people per class, so that i can maintain the equal quality of attention I give to all the students attending the class.

It has truly been a blessing journey and I would love to share my experience with you!

Methodology

How is it going?

During our first interview, you will tell me about your history and your goals. If you wish, we can define your goals together. We can then agree on a first session during which we will make a simple assessment of your different physical qualities.

Thanks to this different information, I will build a tailor-made training program, which will allow you to reach your goal in a progressive and adapted way, avoiding any risk of injury.

We will then agree on the best times to suit your schedule. The sessions can take place in Brussels at home, in the gym, or outside (weather permitting).

course

My name is Valentine, I am a certified sports coach in fitness, specializing in fitness and well-being. I give individual fitness classes in Brussels.

My experience in several types of sports such as boxing, yoga, Crossfit (or Functional Training), weightlifting, fitness and HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) gave me the opportunity to fully explore and to push my physical and mental limits, and I want to use this experience for the benefit of my clients.

For me, sport values the importance of balance in life: the body (Body) and the mind (Mind) work together and should be seen as a whole. Bodymind.

If you are interested in trying to understand yourself better physically, to be ahead physiologically, and perhaps more emotionally stable, just contact me. We will define your goals together and I will help you achieve them.

I am fluent in French, English, Dutch and Italian, and am able to conduct sports coaching sessions in these languages.

A Yin yoga class usually consists of a series of long-held, passive floor poses that mainly work the lower part of the body – the hips, pelvis, inner thighs, lower spine. These areas are especially rich in connective tissues.Connective tissue responds best to a slow, steady load. If you gently stretch connective tissue by holding a yin pose for a long time, the body will respond by making them a little longer and stronger – which is exactly what you want.
Remember the principle of the exercise is to stress the tissue so the body will respond by strengthening it.

BENEFITS OF A REGULAR PRACTICE
Increases circulation and improves flexibility
Calms and balances the mind and body
Reduces stress and anxiety
Releases fascia
Encourages deeper relaxation
Improves joint mobility
Brings balance to the organs through meridian stimulation

FOUR MAIN PRINCIPLES TO REMEMBER WHEN PRACTICING YIN YOGA
Find an appropriate edge: Move slowly and gently into the pose, and look for an appropriate amount of intensity, never stretch so far as to cause pain.
Stillness: consciously try to release into the pose, and to remain still, without shifting position.
Hold the position: begin by holding for 1-3 minutes gradually progressing to 5 minutes or more.
Come out of the pose gently and slowly.

Hello to everyone!

I'm Sophie, a yoga teacher who recently graduated from the Yoga Room Academy in Brussels (200 hours including tax). I am starting to teach formally, but my passion for yoga has been with me for many years, and I have been fortunate to share my teaching with friends, family and in groups. Starting my teaching practice, I am very grateful to be able to share these moments and learn with each new student!

My classes and teachings cover Hatha, Vinyasa and Yin yoga - I like to incorporate a little something for everyone. Each style brings its own special touch, but for me the main thing is to create a space where you can move, breathe and just be.

With me, yoga will be more than physical postures; we will also delve into meditation, breathing and mindfulness. No need for perfect postures or Instagram-worthy flexibility here, or being the yoga studio stereotype. It is important to me that the courses will reflect you, embracing your unique background, your needs and aspirations. Whether you are a seasoned yogi or a total beginner, you are welcomed with open arms, and I will make sure to create an experience tailored to where you are coming from.

I emphasize a good relationship with my students, guiding them to connect with their body, rather than doing an exercise class. At the end of each class, I hope that you will have found a moment of well-being, relaxation and relaxation!
