Meet your hosts

Monique is a yoga teacher, holistic life coach, embodiment facilitator, ayurvedic retreat chef and shamanic practitioner who is passionate about working with women to come home to the body. Mo uses her knowledge in various combinations to do so, like hosting women’s yoga retreats, embodiment workshops and one-to-one coaching sessions and of course yoga classes.

She believes that bringing women together in circle to connect and heal is her deepest soul’s calling. She herself has found her path to healing after starting to attend women’s workshops and circles, it actually sparked and stirred something deep within that she wanted to do women’s work herself. 

Mo believes that in this fast-paced, masculine world, it is easy to lose touch with the essence of self, and become unbalanced and unhappy. She says when one takes the time to slow down, breathe and pause, we find that connection, that spark, YOU, again. 

Many practice yoga in a disembodied way, meaning it’s all about the external. When Mo finished her teacher training she developed her own style of yoga that is somatic and self-centered instead of following a rigid regime that often isn’t suitable for everybody. This way it allows us to come home to the body again, release stuck emotions, and embrace your body as it is.

Mo believes that the way to happiness is through the body. And she will gladly help you in any way she can, whether through nourishing foods or movement.
