Who is the Yoga Dance Air teacher training Module D intended for
Who is this module intended for?
As I believe in interdisciplinary dialogue, Module D is designed to be more "artistic" and choreographic. The idea is to create an interdisciplinary, inter-level encounter and to co-create in an intensive format, as if we were as a company for a week. This will give you tools for group creation, the opportunity to see group dynamics, and to put your creative abilities into practice. Ultimately, the goal is to create dynamic, inspiring classes. If the module takes place online, we will learn to forge these bonds from a distance.

TESTIMONIALS
Mosana, Switzerland
I really enjoyed Module 1 of Yoga Dance Air !
In addition to learning and acquiring many technical tools and teaching resources, I discovered a new perspective on yoga (one that respects tradition) and its harmonious fusion with dance!
A comprehensive, well-rounded, and groundbreaking training program that I highly recommend to anyone who is curious, motivated, and ready to commit wholeheartedly to this journey with Anasma!
Karen, Drôme
"For some time now, I've been looking for a workshop where dance and yoga coexist—without creating a discipline that is neither one nor the other—and where the instructor is skilled in both fields.
Anasma has exceeded my expectations! She excels in these two subjects.
What's more, she's knowledgeable, cheerful, and always ready to listen.
This intensive course was a magical interlude, a true immersion that left me with wonderful memories of bonds formed and kindness shared, friendships forged, gentle self-improvement, games, laughter, and daring...
"I'm also left with this little taste of 'coming back'!"
Laure, Lyon
I took part in the Yoga Danse / Yog'art intensive week organized by Anasma in 2018. It was a revelation for me, a yogi of just under a year, athletic but having not danced for a very long time. The least I can say is that these few days allowed me to unleash my creativity, forge connections between different styles of yoga and dance, bring more fluidity and elasticity to my movements, dare to push the boundaries of these practices, and invite my body to express itself before my mind. I didn’t think I’d be able to improvise solo and duo movements in such a short time, or even lead the group! Anasma put us at ease right from the start, creating a wonderful energy, and we experienced some intense moments, rich in emotion and sometimes even tears of happiness! What a pleasure to be able to move, dance, meditate, express oneself, and share every day in beautiful, caring company. Anasma is a multipotential artist with infinite resources! I have fond memories and wonderful friendships. Thank you, Anasma 🙏
Mathieu, Toulouse
"The yogart course I took with Anasma was an incredible personal journey for me!"
I recently started taking dance and yoga classes, both of which I find incredibly interesting, so I thought, "Why not?" But I'm a total beginner and felt like a complete novice, so it was a real challenge for me! But what a surprise it was to find such incredibly supportive guidance! Not only was I able to make progress and push myself, but above all, I had a truly memorable experience that I'll never forget!
Anasma has the ability to gently guide you, with joy and simplicity, to explore new horizons I never imagined! It was a real eye-opener for me! I didn't think I was capable of all that!
And above all, it was the driving force that kept me going!
The combination of dance and yoga is such a blessing for the body and mind that it motivated me to keep practicing so I could improve and come back for more!
Whether you're a beginner or an expert, don't hesitate to come and experience an incredible adventure!
Prisca, Paris
Anasma, I really wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge and passing it on. Your teaching style is exceptional.
You know how to put your students "in charge of their learning." I didn't even notice the time passing—everything was so well organized. I was really dreading this session because of my health issues, but you worked your magic. Thanks for all your tips. I feel completely re-energized.
Thank you very much 🩷
Lise, Paris
"A great workshop with Anasma! As a dancer, I was able to discover yoga during this workshop and I really enjoyed the fusion of these two disciplines. Anasma is a passionate artist and a great teacher who shares her art with great kindness. We were a small group, and bonds formed very quickly among the participants. The program was diverse, rich, and well-structured, while still leaving plenty of room for creativity and fun. During this workshop, I had fun while developing my technique and deepening my understanding of my body through dance movement."
