CHARLOTTE DE BUSSY

LEVEL 1 CERTIFIED TEACHER (BASE 2)

Charlotte de Bussy Larbi learned and practiced Iyengar yoga from her mother, Christine de Bussy, a senior teacher who runs the centre in Clermont Ferrand. She started in a family setting as a child, and then began taking classes more regularly as a teenager to correct a bad posture caused by scoliosis.

At the age of 25, she went to work in Algeria, and felt the need to return to a regular yoga practice in a place where Iyengar yoga was not known. She then decided to train as a teacher in Clermont Ferrand, while living in Algiers. She was certified base II in September 2012, and then opened Iyengar yoga classes in Algiers where she taught until 2017.

She is fortunate to have been able to stay in Pune, at the RAMAMANI IYENGAR MEMORIAL YOGA INSTITUTE, while B.K.S. was still there.

Back in France in the summer of 2017, she took classes with Stéphane Lalo.

With a background in political science and international humanitarian law, she also works in the field of access to health for migrants in Marseille.

CÉDRIC MUNIER

LEVEL 1 CERTIFIED TEACHER (BASE 2)

Cédric started yoga in 2008, by chance, trained by friends. Despite a good dose of prejudice and a certain scepticism towards this practice, he discovered an activity that aroused his interest. He noticed benefits and a certain well-being from the very first classes. An avid climber at the time, yoga became an ideal preparation for the body and mind.

He then discovered the BKS Iyengar method in 2010. The precision of the instructions, the description of the body and the alignment open up a huge field of exploration! Driven by curiosity and a favourable intuition, the practice intensifies and with it comes a growing interest in the human body, anatomy and the desire to share this learning.

As part of a professional reconversion, Cédric joined the school of masseur-kinésithérapeute in Marseille, from which he graduated in 2019. In parallel, he joined the teacher training at the Iyengar yoga centre in Marseille in 2018. He has been certified by the French Iyengar Yoga Association. in March 2021.
