experimental movement research where she connects elements from the
yoga, acrobatics and dance. With a lot of joy she teaches child yoga
and works in circus projects.
Lucie did a two years training in Sri Shivanandas tradition and studied
Anusara Yoga with Bridget Woods Kramer. She collected her experience in
Ashtanga, Jivamukti and classical Vinyasa. Even so she is dancing and
flying in her acrobatics, Yoga will always be her foundation and her
path of life.
She loves to sing mantras during her lessons and to add some bodywork
or massage technics. Her main focus is to combine the playfulness and
the discipline within yoga practise.
So erverybody is welcome in her classes to find his own special way to and with yoga.
„Moveasy“
This workshop is dedicated to the pure joy of movement. When we were
children, we had the natural need to move our bodies. As an adult
sometimes its hard to remember this need. Especially because our
movements were judged in school - from the first day on, we all over
sudden had to sit still.
In the „Moveasy“ workshop we experiment in a playful way
how our bodies respond to gravity. We are using techniques from yoga,
acrobatics (you don't have to be advanced!), contact improvisation,
massage and bodywork.
The individual experience is as important as the groups experience.
It's very special to feel the responsibility for a person, who is
flying on your feet!
Moveasy is an invitation to become aware of our inner and outer
movements - and of the whole big universal-movement within and around
us.
Lucie will be teaching from 6th December 09 till first week of February 2010………

Yogacharya Shri Jayakumar Swamysree
Yogacharya Shri Jayakumar Swamysree was born in 1964, in a middle class family in Srirangapatnam, near Mysore. He started his yogic practices along with his friends at the age of 16, under the able guidance of Shri Naadananda Swameeji who was imprisoned many times during the freedom movements of India. He is very happy to tell that he did not start yoga for any kind of illness but for the overall personality development.
After practicing yoga for three years with Swameeji, he moved to Yogaacharya Professor K. Keshavamurthy to continue his practices as Swameeji went abroad.
He started his career as a yoga cum physical education teacher in a public school at Ananthapur, Andra Pradesh, and served as a yoga coach at Thriveni Academy, Chennai for three years and joined SDM College of Naturopathy and Yogic sciences, Ujire, Karnataka, as a Lecturer in Yogic Sciences, and he was soon promoted to H.O.D of Yogic Sciences.
Meanwhile he underwent courses like Vipasanna Meditation, Sudharshana Kriya, Kundalini Meditation, Transcendental Meditation, Cyclic Meditation, and other useful, special and advanced yogic techniques like Yoganidra in Vipasanna way and Shavasana in various methods.
During this period he was called for an all India level interview from Indian Council for Cultural Relations, New Delhi, and was selected as the best among many and was deputized to Moscow, to work with the JNCC, Embassy of India, Moscow, Russia.
During his stay in Moscow, he visited different parts of Russia officially, to conduct seminars, workshops, and yoga therapy and practical classes of yoga. In about four years he taught yoga to, more than 1000 students. He had students not only from Russia but also students belonging to other countries such as France, Germany, USA, Guyana, Chile, Peru, Italy and South Asian Countries (from the various embassies in Moscow).
