About Anne
My friends call me “Le Pigeon Voyageur," the Homing Pigeon – bird who travels around the world, but always comes back to its home.
I discovered Yoga in Australia in my early twenties when a colleague brought me to a Hatha Iyengar style class. It was straight away a hit. I enjoyed the focus , the discipline of the practice, and the feeling of growing.
Ireland, France, Germany followed and I continued my path of practice while working in the automotive industry as an engineer. I discovered other styles of yoga, other teachers, from different cultures, from different schools, and every time I was never bored, I wanted more.
​
It was in my last journey, in Hong Kong, that I finally took the step to acknowledge my passion and dedicated time to train myself to become a certified teacher.
My Yoga Teacher Training Journey
My training was under the supervision of the leading yoga teacher and tutor, Patrick Creelman, Director of Instruction at Pure Yoga Hong Kong.
Patrick taught me a solid foundation in teaching a class with intelligent alignment combined with spiritual knowledge.
I have also received training from the experienced teacher Wendy Wyvill with whom I deepened my knowledge on Pranayama and Breathwork practice. The topic Breathing really changed my general health and, in order to help others to benefit from this, I graduated as an Oxygen Advantage® Functional Breathing Instructor, with Patrick McKeow.
As time went on I felt the need to be supported by a community to help me go through the menopausal transition. I decided to educate myself on this topic with the international renowned program from Petra Coveney and became a Menopause Yoga Teacher under her supervision.
I am grateful for all these encounters and respect all my teachers who guide me today immensely.
My Values
Authenticity, Connection, Equanimity while challenging oneself to do the best we can are the values that drive my practice and are embedded in the Yoga Philosophy.
Stay True to Yourself
Authenticity is a key value that I have carried throughout my life. Being true to myself, accepting who I am and doing the best I can to give a better version of myself has been a constant path of discovery.
Creating Community
Connecting with people and being part of a Community bring me happiness and growth.
Stay Enthusiastic
I am an Enthusiastic person looking for challenges with a strong need of sharing the fun with others.
