When I moved from France to New York in 2009, I started a fast-paced, career-focused life. I had the job title and all the perks but I felt like I was missing a deeper sense of fulfillment.

I started practicing yoga to address lower back pain, and slowly fell in love with the practice.

As I practiced and learned to teach yoga for the next 12+ years, I dove into all the lesser-known aspects... mantras, meditation, chanting, yogic philosophy, and the breath techniques that helped me so much.

Yoga is so much more multi-dimensional than I ever expected!

Hey, I'm Hélène

Western yoga practice often reduces this rich tradition to a workout in a hot room. With my 5-pillar approach to teaching yoga, you'll experience a more holistic and multifaceted approach that connects your spirit with your mind and body.

The stuff not everyone knows…

  • An Aryuvedic convert, I learned to cook dhal and kichari from the source… my mother-in-law (I hope she approves my adding of ginger to her original recipe)
  • I’m a raised French café girl, in love with oat milk cappuccino and street-style Indian chai (in India)
  • I’m me, with my ups and downs, little successes and life challenges… open to meet you wherever you are in your journey.
