Stanislava
Stanislava is the founder and main teacher of Myogis. She has been teaching the Ashtanga Yoga in Mysore style for more than 10 years. She went to India to study with the lineage holder of the Ashtanga Yoga Sharath Jois in 2016, 2017 and 2018/2019.
"I discovered my dharma in practicing and teaching the Ashtanga Yoga. My main life purpose is to help people to find back their inners selfs, to maintain and improve their well-being, to discover connection to their bodies and breath while maintaining peaceful and happy life. I found this in Mysore style of the Ashtanga Yoga, where teacher teaches individually their students in the group, giving hands-on adjustments. This way students develop their own practice and become more aware of their bodies & minds.
I found tremendous challenge in this dynamic and physically demanding practice. It was love in a first moment with this practice. However, with time, practice taught me to slow down, to save her energy, to use it more efficiently, and overcome fears in her everyday life. It as well taught me to concentrate, focus, and treat my body more consciously.
Besides being yoga teacher, Stanislava is a mother.

Namaste, J’ai découvert le yoga en 1997, lors de ma première grossesse. Je l’ai découvert à travers un médecin gynécologue à l’origine d’une conception non violente de l’accouchement : « La méthode Leboyer » du nom de son auteur Frédéric Leboyer. Il s’avère que cet homme pour construire sa méthode est parti vivre en Inde où il a rencontré BKS Iyengar et sa fille Ghita alors enceinte de son 1er enfant. Un merveilleux livre est né de cette rencontre qui a inspiré toute ma vie de femme et de mère : le nom de ce livre est « Cette lumière d’où vient l’enfant ». Je me suis mise à la pratique du yoga à partir de cette date avec des professeurs tels que Viviane Gutlener et Daniel Rougier. En 2008, Stanislava Benova m’a fait découvrir l’Ashtanga yoga et ce fut une merveilleuse rencontre car elle est toujours aujourd’hui pour moi une personne très inspirante, intelligente et ouverte aux nouvelles pratiques qui naissent aujourd’hui. J’ai entretemps cheminé avec d’autres professeurs tels que J-C Garnier, Anne Pinette, Teune van der Wildt et Sophie Mahy. Enfin, tout récemment, j’ai (enfin) pu partir en Inde ou j’ai eu l’honneur de pouvoir pratiquer avec Vijay Kumar et Marco Icayardi. J’en retire une énorme gratitude que j’aime partager en enseignant le yoga depuis plus de 10 ans maintenant.
CAMILLE
I am Camille, a naturopath, masseuse, and yoga enthusiast for over 10 years. My life revolves between India, my husband's country, and Brussels, my hometown. Like a tightrope walker, I balance these two worlds through yoga.
Beyond poses and achievements, the comforting rhythm of breath and movement brings me a sense of stability, a feeling of coming home. Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga introduced me to this world. It taught me the juggling between discipline and letting go, finding space within me and embracing discomfort -a journey full of complexity that led me closer to who I am.
