Hi Dragonfly friends!
This time we visited Paris again. We love
Paris! Who doesn’t? :-) There was held a French Championship and also seminar
with Emmy Cleaves on 22nd and 23rd March.
We went by our van – we absolutely love
travelling this way! Takes long but you can see different things, countries and
you can stop anywhere you want. We crossed Germany borders in the evening and
went overnight across Germany, Luxembourg and Belgium. We got some rest on
highway at night.
We came to Paris around noon, had some snack,
put our stuff in a hotel room and we rushed to Yoga Bikram Rive Gauche studio. We
met the studio owner Michelle Leonard, took a class and had a great time in a beautiful
and spacious studio. We liked the garden in the middle, reception was large and
very comfy, hot room and teacher were very pleasant. We would recommend this
studio to visit if you are a yoga fan and travel to Paris – definitely worthy!
Nicely tired we took a walk through the night in Paris centre. How beautiful!
Saturday was a big day – French Championship
and class with Emmy Cleaves. Bring it on! :-) The event was held in L’Espace
Bikram Paris at Hélène’s Fournier studio. What an amazing place, you must see it when you are in Paris! Gorgeous studio,
sweet people, perfect class with Emmy and nice atmosphere. Especially we loved the therapy pre-heat room. Even if the class
was hard we felt relaxed after. The class was full, we saw familiar faces and
friends. There was a break after the class and then the championship began.
There were competitors from Bikram studios Paris, Bordeaux and Marseille. Here

1. Dana Vasilescu (L'Espace Bikram

We again had some time to spare so we went
shopping! ;-)
The last day in Paris was Sunday – there was
Emmy’s seminar in L’Espace Bikram Paris but we attended one recently in Copenhagen
so instead of that we visited the last studio and the oldest one – Yoga Bikram
Marais, Marine's Ochin studio. We already knew this studio but this time it was renovated, nice, calm
even if it is in the heart of Paris. Absolutely amazing! We took Jeanne’s Pesle
class who we already knew and enjoyed it very much! :-) You need to visit this one!
The weather was changing but we spent some time
in the city anyway. Paris is beautiful in any weather and season! ;-) In the
evening we went to L’Espace Bikram Paris to say bye to everybody after Emmy’s
seminar and finally we set on a way back home.
Bye, Paris, hopefully see you soon! :-)
Love, Petra
