What the Paris - Yoga!

Yoga - Namaste!

- I have been loving the time spent on my Yoga classes. I haven't been to Yoga in years, the return has been life changing. I go to two studios and am a frequent flyer :)

Ashtanga Paris: http://www.ashtangayogaparis.fr/ - This is a family run Yoga studio above their home. The studio is intimate, fits no more than 13 people, and has a Japanese flair. The 2 kids are adorable. Gerard is French but speaks English well enough. Because of the language barrier it's a little harder to get in to each position with 100% accuracy, so he will do some serious hands on manipulation. I prefer Hatha...

Centre de Yoga du Marais: http://www.yogamarais.com/dex.html - Michelle runs this small studio, fits no more than 17. Her and Chantal are expats from the US. They both are well versed in Yoga and are been patient with teaching. They will judge the class and decide whether to teach mainly in English or French. I love this place!
