About myself: I’ve been practicing professional sports since the age of 4, which gave me a deep and intuitive connection to the body. This background allows me to offer a precise and accessible way for people to become more conscious of their own bodies.
I discovered yoga in 2012 and have been an active, dedicated practitioner ever since 🧘🏼♀️
In 2021, I completed my yoga teacher certification and have since been sharing the practice with many people in France and abroad 🌍
I continue to learn and grow constantly, and most recently spent time in India connecting more deeply with the yogic way of living. I’m now happy to share this experience and practice with you 🤗

Rando #45 : 18.5 km dans la forêt de Sénart (94)
🌳 🌳 🌳
Bordée par la vallée de l’Yerres et la vallée de la Seine, la forêt domaniale de Sénart se situe à 25 km au sud-est de Paris. Intégrée au domaine royal en 1314, cette forêt giboyeuse fut aménagée pour la chasse au cerf et au loup à partir du XVIe siècle. A la Révolution, elle devient propriété de l'Etat (domaniale). Ses grandes allées forestières, dessinées pour les chasses royales, traversent de vieilles futaies de chênes auxquels se mêlent châtaigniers, pins sylvestre ou laricio. Avec ses 3 000 hectares de verdures et ses 145 km de routes, elle offre un accès privilégié à la nature à une population urbaine avide de loisirs et détente. Ce qui en fait le « monument » le plus visité de l’Essonne. Entourée par les villes, Sénart bénéficie depuis 1995 du statut de « Forêt de protection » ce qui la met à l’abri de toutes velléités foncières.
Distance 18.5 km
Dénivelé 67 m
Niveau Difficile
Vitesse 5km/h

Randonnée en forêt de Saint-Germain-en-Laye #1 🥾🌳
Bonjour tout le monde !
J’organise ce samedi 18 Avril une randonnée de 24km en forêt de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, 150+ de dénivelé 🌱
⚠️ Niveau de difficulté : **3/4** (cette randonnée n'est pas conseillée aux débutants)
🥾 Allure de 5 à 5,5km/h - Durée totale d’environ 6h (incluant les pauses / hors transports en commun)
🚂 Rendez-vous à la gare RER A de Maisons-Laffitte pour 10h30.
**Etape 1** : Fin de la rando à la gare RER A de Saint-Germain-en-Laye (24km)
**Etape 2** : Pour ceux qui auront encore de l'énergie \| Je le ferai personnellement \| Fin de la rando \(boucle\) à la gare RER A de Maisons\-Laffitte \(rajouter 5km supplémentaires\)
N’oubliez pas votre pique-nique (et une bouteille pour ceux qui veulent 🍷)
**Règles de la rando** ⚠️
\- Tranche d’âge de 25 à 60 ans **maximum** (cf. règles générales du groupe)
**\- Liste d'attente non acceptée** (merci de respecter cette règle)
\- Événement gratuit
\- Je me réserve le droit de déplacer ou d’annuler la randonnée en cas de mauvais temps ou en cas d'empêchement personnel de dernière minute
\- Chacun randonne sous sa propre responsabilité
\- On ne fume pas pendant la rando 🚭
**Infos pratiques** 🤔
\- Chacun apporte son casse\-croûte du midi 🍔
\- Chaussures basses ou hautes au choix \(hautes idéales si besoin de stabilité\) 🥾
\- Pour les habitués\, envoyez\-moi un MP si besoin\, on s'arrangera 👌
**Avis à la population** 📣
Je tiens à rappeler que mes randos s’inscrivent dans un cadre bon enfant. Elles doivent rester agréables et détendues pour tout le monde. Elles sont gratuites, non professionnelles et me demandent du temps pour l’organisation.
Je prierai donc les personnes mécontentes des règles de mes randos (en l’occurrence celle concernant la tranche d’âge) **de simplement passer leur chemin**, en évitant toute invective dans les commentaires, qui n’aurait qu’un effet délétère et non constructif.
(ou alors encore mieux, de créer elles-mêmes leurs propres événements)
Au plaisir de vous rencontrer !

Circuit des trois étangs en Forêt de Montmorency
**Déroulé**
Changement de décor, je vous propose une escapade dans le Nord de la région parisienne, en Val-d-Oise, une balade très variée, en boucle, avec départ et arrivée à Saint-Leu-la-Forêt, en forêt (justement) de Montmorency : c'est une magnifique forêt qui coche beaucoup de cases dans mes critères de randonnée : ambiance forestière (beaucoup de châtaigniers), un peu de dénivelée pour la variété et les points de vue, de l'eau (les trois étangs !), du patrimoine, et très accessible de Paris !
**En pratique**
La distance est d'environ 15 Km. Pas de difficulté particulière, il y a quelques dénivelées raisonnables... Il est possible que cela soit parfois boueux.
Prévoir un équipement de randonnée adapté à la météo du jour et surtout de bonnes chaussures de marche auxquelles vous êtes habitués. Munissez-vous également d'eau, pas de ravitaillement possible, et d'un pique-nique !
**Départ**
Pour les Parisiens : train POVA ligne H à gare du Nord à 9h56, arrivée à Saint-Leu à 10h23
Le prix du trajet est inclus dans le pass Navigo.
**Retour**
En fonction de l'arrivée à Saint-Leu, départs environ toutes les demi-heures à partir de 14h35
**Soutien**

While the rest of Paris is sipping wine having picnics by the river, and looking chic, your hare will bring you deep in the greenery, hunting for flour marks..
It will be "mostly flat" and "easy to follow". Expect plenty of fish hook to keep the Front Runners humble and enough checks to ensure the rest of us have time to ponder our life choices.
There is a high probability of green-stained socks and a 100% guarantee of beer/beverages at the end.
🐰 Hares: Sleeping Booty
👣 Trail: A-to-B trail, no bag drop
🧭 Directions: Gare Chaville Rive Droite (lignes L, U), sortie/exit 1
📍 Meeting Point: statue/pissoir/follow the markings
💶 Hash Cash: 5 € (Hash cash is collected to keep our club active, and also to pay for your beer.)
🥐 Bring what you need. Up to you, but this could include water, sunblock, snow goggles, survival snack, chalk to back mark, a whistle if you can’t shout, brand new running shoes, a virgin, shiggy socks, a hash hymnal, a bag of tea, a bag of wine, wax, and/or extra cash. Dress appropriately - we run, and we may get into some shiggy (mud, puddles, scratchy bushes, wet paint, ...)
On on! 👣🍻

Hike Blacklick Woods and The Canopy. Optional lunch after.
Over time I'm hoping to organize a hike to all the Franklin County Metro Parks. This is the first one so if you're interested jump in!
We'll start with the Canopy Walk, a cool feature of this park. Climb 100 stairs to the top - or take the elevator if stairs aren't your thing. At the top there are a bunch of things to play on - a rope bridge, a fireman pole that we can slide down - and more! About fifteen minutes there and we'll head to the natural trail, Buttonbush, Maple and Beech Trail for 2.2 miles then do a 1.7 mile loop on the paved Greenway Trail. We'll be passing our cars as we transition if you only want to do the first loop, or the second loop. Pace of around 3.5 mph but no one left behind.
If there is an interest we can grab lunch nearby afterward.
Contra dance with Big Scioty May 2 - Clinton Heights Lutheran church
**Caller: Richard Ades**
**Band: The McKenzies**
**Clinton Heights Lutheran Church**
**15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202**
WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing!
Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor.
Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/)
Please bring your own refillable water bottle.
