OUR AMAZING AND EXPERIENCED YOGA INSTRUCTOR
Céline was born and raised in Switzerland.
After living and working for almost 30 years in Switzerland she decided to continue her journey up north and moved to Oslo, Norway where she currently lives.
Her yoga journey started shortly after her first yoga classes in Switzerland.
She started to feel that yoga is not only an exercise of the different asanas, but goes way beyond that.
The silence of the mind, the sense of being grounded while at the same time, flowing. The healing power of each movement leads one through everything. Focus and breath.
Céline completed her first vinyasa teacher training with Laughing Lotus in New York.
She also completed a more alignment based teacher training with Adam Hussler from London.
In May, 2019 Céline completed her Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy Certification from the University of Ayurveda in California where she was able to
deepen her understanding of the connection between Ayurveda and Yoga.
Céline is also a certified holistic ayurvedic nutritionist. Since the beginning of 2020 she is also a certified yin yoga teacher.
You can expect powerful, challenging, playful classes with a strong focus on alignment.

OUR YOGA SESSIONS DAY BY DAY
Kristin Folsland Olsen/visitnorway.com
Our experience will start like this
Grounding practice (30 - 45 min)
Our first practice together will be a very grounding session, to connect to yourself and the nature around us.
By gentle and slow movements connected to your breath you will be able to let go of your daily life and be able to dive into the
adventure ahead.
This practice will be followed by a water meditation.
Water Meditation (15 - 20 min)
After a short asana practice wit will start to connect with the stillness and silence within.
This evening meditation is based on the element of water. Water meditations can enhance the powerful benefits of mindfulness.
Water as a symbol of the infinite flow that moves through our bodies, through blockages and unlocks inner peace and healing.
With this meditation we can calm the overactive mind and encourage a feeling of non-attachment and weightlessness.
Allowing ourselves to be fully present creates space for every day stress to fade away into the background and get yourself ready for the upcoming days.

Stretch flow (45 – 60 min)
This deep stretch flow is the all-natural mind-body relaxation you need.

Earth Meditation (15 - 20 min)
With this meditation based on the element of earth we create a sense of calmness and we will ground our energy.
Earth’s qualities are that of structure, foundation, consistency,
and stability.
By directing your own energy to connect with the earth element, it helps you to anchor into the qualities and
characteristics of that element within you.
Grounding your energy is one of the quickest, simplest, and most effective ways of bringing yourself back into
a calm, centred, and balanced state.
