About Me

CURRENT MISSION

renovating an old grange to create a training, collaboration & performance space for artists

ABOUT ME

I live in the beautiful french pyreness,in a valley lush and green. we are surrounded by mountains. the land is fertile, I like to grow my own vegies and collect hazelnuts, walnuts, apples, chestnuts and mushrooms from the forest. There is a source that flows from the mountain and the water tastes like water should. I practice and teach Iyengar yoga from my home studio. I am a circus artist often performing on tissu and trapeze with character or acrobalance with my peformance partners. I teach circus and there is a group of us who practice acro yoga reguarly. I have an outdoor aerial rig where I like to hang upside down. I have a project where I am renovating a grange to create a circus & artists training space. I am a rock climber and love spending time in the mountains. je peut parler en francais mais pour ecrire... c'est trop lent et long pour moi !
