Louise Chardon’s approach to Yoga (Iyengar tradition) is global and progressive: an invitation to journey into the many layers of presence and reveal the transformative potential within ourself. Through this sentient approach we improve our physical condition by softening the joints, toning the muscles and balancing the bodily systems, so that we enhance our self-confidence and vitality.

Following the practice of physical postures (Asanas), Louise will guide us into the practice of breath regulation (Pranayama) and meditation (Dhyana). Through these three modalities of Yoga, we cultivate in ourself the continuum of body-mind and generate a gentle sense of peace and serenity through our day/existence.

Louise’s wish is to move beyond a performative approach to Yoga and touch the subtle body through the vibrancy of presence, and convey that life is embedded in Yoga and Yoga is embedded into life.

After a long and intense career as a dancer, Louise Chardon develops further herself into the field of somatic practices, based on spiritual growth and self-inquiry. For more than 30 years she dedicates her life to the study of the self in motion. Specialised in the profound sensitive abilities of the being and how its subconscious manifests through embodiment and patterns, she mainly applies her researches to her visual and performative art and shares it through her pedagogic and therapeutic approaches which she defines as Embodied Philosophy
