About Me

I have always been interested in languages and different cultures.
Ever since I am a teenager, I try to get chances to live and experience in different countries with different cultures. I have lived in South East Asian for half a year, then New Zealand for 6 years, Australia for 3 years, and right now I am in France. The journey does not end here!
Because of my own experience, I very well understand the struggles with languages or being an expat in a different country. I took as my mission in life, as well as helping people who are similar-minded to achieve similar goals.
I also love sports - yoga, rock climbing, alpinism, and trail running.
I have developed a range of cross-training programmes for people who would like to discover new things or actually using a language to learn something else.

Ashtanga Yoga in Group or Individual in English or in Chinese

22 £ /h

Ashtanga Vinyasa Primary Series (also known as the First Series or Yoga Chikitsa) means yoga therapy. When practiced regularly, heals all sickness and purifies your body in preparation for more profound Yogic practice - both physical and meditative.

Ashtanga Yoga is a definite sequence of various Hatha Yoga Asanas or poses coupled with a particular set of breathing techniques called ‘Ujjayi Pranayama.’ This sequence was developed by the famous Hatha Yoga Master of the 20th century - Yogi K Pattabhi Jois. Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series is an ancient Hatha yoga text known as ‘Yoga Korunta.’ This ancient yoga series is practiced with synchronized breathing techniques (Vinyasa) that promote ‘flow of breathe’ in the asana or pose practice. Together, this is called Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Style.

During the course, you will receive a workshop focused on alignment and adjustment techniques for the main postures of the Ashtanga Yoga primary series and a few other more advanced postures if you wish. It will be focusing on the Asana (the physical aspects of poses). 🌸🌳🌹
I'll also try to cover as much of Pranayama (breathing) and Dristhi (where to look at) as possible.

I passionately believe in the significance of discovery and experience on the development of your unique personal voice.

Yoga for Inner Serenity: Soothe Anxiety and Regain Balance

40 £ /h

Yoga is often recommended as a beneficial practice for relieving anxiety and stress. It combines gentle physical exercises, breathing techniques and meditation, which can help calm the mind and relax the body. Here are some reasons why yoga might benefit you:

Stress management: Yoga encourages increased awareness of your breathing and body, which can help reduce stress levels and promote relaxation.

Improved breathing: Yoga emphasizes deep, mindful breathing techniques, which can help regulate your nervous system and reduce anxiety.

Body Strengthening: Yoga postures (asanas) can improve strength, flexibility and balance, which contributes to better overall physical health.

Mental focus: Practicing yoga requires concentration and presence of mind, which can help you detach yourself from anxious thoughts and refocus on the present moment.

Community and support: Joining a yoga class can connect you with others who share similar concerns and provide additional social support.

It is important to note that everyone is different and methods of relieving anxiety may vary. If you are considering starting yoga, I recommend consulting with a healthcare professional, such as a doctor or therapist, to discuss your specific situation and get advice tailored to your needs.

Why is pelvic mobility important?
🔆Pelvic mobility is essential to meet the simplest daily functional needs such as walking or climbing stairs. The pelvis is the center of gravity and the largest bone complex in the human body. It is an insertion point for strong muscles: they form the muscular chains that have the pelvis as an anchor point.
The shortening or overtraining of some of them, due to sports postures or gestures, can generate an imbalance in the tensegrity system of the pelvic girdle and many local and adjacent problems, from muscle decompensations, pain, health problems at a visceral level and many others. aspects that are not taken into account 🧐
✅You have to ensure that your pelvis is in a neutral position, aligned at all times and in any activity you do so that your body does not adopt wrong postures by default and avoid having problems with its mobility and consequently other derived dysfunctions, such as hernias, lower back pain. , pelvic floor problems, etc.
📌The program aims to strengthen, stretch and put into tension the muscle chains and the analytical work of the abductor, adductor, extensor and pelvitrochanter complex. All of these myofascial elements determine the pelvic position and, in doing so, create or limit the freedom of the pelvis, having repercussions on the lower and upper limbs.
🤗 Of course we are not going to leave aside the rest of the body❗️❗️😅
The training approach will be individualized, after a general and analytical body evaluation.
Enough of so many aches and pains, release the superficial and deep fascia and revitalize your energy center. 🥰

Yoga Nidra is a sacred practice of conscious rest, where the body sleeps while awareness remains awake. Rooted in the ancient yogic tradition, this guided journey gently draws attention inward, allowing the nervous system to settle and the mind to enter a deeply receptive state.

The practice begins with breath awareness and body sensing, followed by the setting of a Sankalpa—a heartfelt intention planted in the fertile ground between waking and sleep. Gentle mantra vibrations and guided imagery support the release of physical, mental, and emotional layers, leading toward a sense of wholeness and inner stillness.

In this liminal state, the fluctuations of the mind soften, echoing the yogic understanding that true rest arises not from sleep alone, but from presence. Yoga Nidra nourishes clarity, emotional balance, creativity, and deep renewal.

Suitable for all levels, this practice invites you to rest, realign, and reconnect with your inner wisdom.

My yoga journey is rooted in helping people navigate the interconnected challenges of metabolic health, stress, and body image. Living with conditions like PCOS, struggling with mental health, or navigating weight management can often make standard exercise feel overwhelming or burn-out inducing. I created my practice to offer a different way forward.
I offer a balanced, body-honoring approach that focuses on regulating the nervous system, building functional strength, and supporting hormonal and metabolic health without force or shame.

🌿 Can we cultivate curiosity, compassion, and non-judgment through meditation? Can this way of seeing help us better understand our experience and act with greater clarity?

🌀 It's a question that's been with me for eight years of practice. Eight years that have also included doubts, frustrations, and moments when I haven't felt like practicing.

🌱 What I'm discovering is that paying attention isn't just a mental process. It's a process accompanied by a bodily wisdom that deepens as we continue our practice. Paying attention and understanding are things we can train and enjoy.

🎭 If you are interested in Buddhist philosophy and teaching methods that integrate bodily wisdom through conscious movement, expressive arts and the foundations of ritual theater, I invite you to explore this proposal with me.

✨ A space to explore questions like:

💭 What do I do with the thoughts that pop into my mind? What do I do when a thought won't go away? What do I do when my body feels one thing and my mind another? How can I learn to listen to what my body needs? How do I let go of something that hurts me?

🤍 This is a space where you can feel comfortable exploring, practicing, and discovering your own answers.

Personalized one-on-one sessions tailored to your own interests and explorations in three stages

Landing: we learn to reach the body and pause
Explore: we learn a mindfulness foundation per class through anchors and contemplative teaching methods
Integration: we integrate what has been explored through deep relaxation and loving speech.

🌿 I invite you to explore it with me. ✨

9 Practices ( 4 sessions) :

Nadi shodhana and bhramari. Alternate-nostril breathing, then a long humming exhale. You feel it in the skull.

Trinetra and netra kumbhaka. The rare breath practice which is held gently while the gaze rests on one point. You see what the mind does when it has nowhere to go.

Kechari. The word means “moving in space.” Attention is taught to rest there.

Ashwini and shambhavi kriya. A rhythmic pulse in the lower body.

Somatic release. A method to let go of tension held in the jaw, shoulders and belly.

Shikantaza. The Zen practice of sitting with no technique at all. We end here, in silence.

This is not a relaxation class. It is practice: precise, quiet, a little demanding. Beginners are welcome. You only need to be willing to stay.

Develop a Yoga practice that fits your experience, your body and your everyday life, with personal guidance rather than simply following a video.

I’m Abhay, a trained Haṭha Yoga teacher and doctoral researcher studying breathing and heart–brain interactions. My teaching combines respect for traditional Yoga with attentive, practical guidance.

These live, one-to-one online classes give you space to ask questions, revisit a movement and understand how to practise. I adapt the pace and offer variations, with individual feedback throughout.

Depending on your experience and interests, we can explore:
- Yoga postures, mobility and body awareness.
- Coordinating movement with comfortable breathing.
- Breath awareness, stillness and relaxation.
- Refining familiar postures and developing a consistent personal practice.
You are welcome if you are beginning, returning after a break or looking for more individual attention alongside an existing practice. We begin with a short conversation about your experience and what you would like to explore. The balance of movement, breathing and rest is shaped around you rather than a fixed routine.

Sessions are taught in English, with German support available. If you choose to continue, future sessions can build on what we have already explored.
