Testimonies

I have been doing yoga with Michele since 2020 already.

Over the years, she has been able to share her love of yoga with me with professionalism while maintaining great simplicity.

I particularly appreciate his impressive capacity for adaptation.

When the pandemic forced us to stop, she quickly adapted by offering us online courses. She also continues to offer us this possibility when we cannot be present. It is very precious to me.

She is also an expert in modifying a posture or exercise if an injury or personal limitation prevents us from performing it. There is always a way!

It is with joy that I go to her classes and if, sometimes, I am less motivated or less in shape, I always come away with a satisfaction and well-being that I could no longer do without.

Her vast yogic universe offers us a variety of different practices combined with time slots. A few Sanskrit words are now part of my vocabulary.  

Knowledge of the parts of the body targeted by an exercise are always explained to me to ensure I fully understand the goal. I experience a profound transformation after each class.  

I am able to appreciate an improvement in my flexibility since I started classes more than 4 years ago. A meeting with myself that I very rarely miss. Her complete awareness at all times guarantees adaptation of movements to the abilities of each participant without judgment and in complete comfort.        

A delicate thought enhances the end of each lesson. A well-being break that I recommend to everyone!

I was introduced to yoga at a time in my life when I was experiencing particularly difficult challenges. I had seen the good it did for my partner, and I allowed myself to choose myself by giving myself this little hour, without thinking and without experiencing my everyday torments.

Father of 4 children, with three simultaneous jobs under my belt, my life is in the fast lane all the time, and my health had taken a big hit.

But everything changed for me, for our couple and for our family when we took up yoga.

As I am a man and I work in a very typically masculine profession, I feared not liking it or not being up to the task... but Michele's classes made me discover that I was perfectly in my place, and from one week to the next, I found new strength, and above all a new joy of living.

I wait with feverish anticipation for each of her classes, and when I leave, I feel as if carried on a cloud of lightness, ready to face the difficulties of my week ahead.

She is phenomenal...

We are a subsidized CPE, with a permit for 62 children. As part of a grant from Loisirs Laurentides, we retained the services of Michele Gelinas, yoga teacher. This allowed 28 children between 3 1/2 to 5 years old to learn the basics of yoga.

Michele knew how to adapt to the temperament, emotions and requirements of each groups of children. Each course had its differences. The child was curious to learn and happy to put names to their postures. The children were grateful for her presence and her yoga technique demonstrations. At the end of the yoga session, the children were skilled in performing a few yoga postures.

It was a great experience that I hope can be repeated again.
