Fluid roots: movement and yoga

Connect to your fluid self through yoga, dance, nature and Continuum movement. D'où vient le nom OKAN ? Where does OKAN come from ?

- EN below -

Nous accompagnons en particulier les femmes, les enfants et les personnes âgées à se reconnecter à elles-mêmes et à retrouver du plaisir par le biais d'activités d'expression corporelle pleinement nourrissantes. Okan signifie cœur en Yoruba, langue d'Afrique de l'Ouest. C'est également le nom d'une variété d'arbre très durable originaire de cette région. EN

Our mission : help you to reconnect with yourself and to find the pleasure through nurturing yoga and movement. We feel called to specifically accompany the most vulnerable - women, children and elderly people. Okan means heart in Yoruba, a West African language. It is also the name of a very strong tree species originating from the same region.

In fact to understand how your body and especially your fascia moves you need to understand the gel sol state:This is a state of water which is kind of elastic, flexible, multidimensional - where it can reorganize itself at any given moment in any direction. Imagine little lego pieces (collagen matrix) floating inside this gel - just waiting to be glued in and organized and structured.So if the movement is patterned, habitual or simply limited - collagen lego pieces get glued together and limit you even more and you feel stuck, heavy, rigid and so on.And that collagen is very intelligent ! It adapts to all movement patterns you could imagine - even wide range of movement patterns stays movement pattern.Lego becomes more intricate - but it stays a lego structure, helping you only for chosen movement pathways.So how to come back from the lego matrix, stiffness, limitedness to flow, open possibilities, adaptability?The answer is unpatterned movement. Include unpatterned free flow movement in your daily practice. Continuum is a radically unpatterned movement: we intentionally avoid patterns, guidance, specific focus, repetition, and we learn by noticing the subtle patterns - and unwinding them. Breath and sound help to liberate body from patterns - because the movement is initiated from body intelligence straight.If you followed until here - and agree that mind and body are one - this delicate work can lead you to liberating the patterns of thoughts, limited belief and repetitive thinking…Join me online for some unpattern movement tonight - or this Saturday live in Brussels.Link in BIO

Water inside, water outside.
This morning, I was in the warm waters of a therapeutic pool.
Softening.
Listening.
Playing.
Slowing down.
✨ Water was asking me:
How can I soften my tissues to let the spirals move through me?To let the currents of water shape my body with coherence and grace?
How can I listen with greater sensitivity — to the impulse, the micro-movement, the call of water inviting me into dance?
This gentle play allows me to attune more deeply —to inner and outer water.
My aquatic dance practice (moving within the water) mirrors and complements my somatic practice (moving from the water inside).
Water is my greatest teacher.
She shows me how to move, how to feel, how to return.
💧Would you like to explore your own inner waters with me?
You can:
🌊 Join me online for Fluid Body Origins – Continuum & somatic movement (starting TOMORROW - link in bio)
🌊 Join us in Brussels for Sense, Feel, Play – aquatic dance weekend in a warm therapeutic pool Au bord de l’eau
🌊 Or book an individual session — on land or in water — to connect with your inner fluid landscape
If you feel the call, I would love to move with you.
📩 PM for details & registration.

Quiet transformation.
My journey with Continuum began in 2020, in the quiet of my room, through online classes.
I had just discovered somatics—and was captivated by a phrase describing Emilie Conrad: a woman embodying water.
Something in me felt like a calling: What does it mean to embody water? How does that feel?
The classes were a deep dive — not just into movement, but into the science of cymatics, microbiology, and fractals.
We spoke of waves and resonance, of fluids and form.
My mind felt nourished — and then… we dove into the body.
No movement guidance, only breath, sound, and spiraling invitations.
Be water.
For 30 to 45 minutes, I entered a sacred temple of pristine freedom and discovery.
Alone in my room — yet held by the collective field — I was discovering how to move by sensation, how to soften my tissues, how to be an animal — a bear, an ant, a dolphin, how to flow
I didn’t need to travel to distant lands, drink sacred medicines, or seek out gurus.
I didn’t need strong sensations or dramatic breakthroughs.
Everything I needed… was here. In my body. In my breath. In my inner waters.
I learned to be my body — not as a fixed shape, but as a living, breathing planetary process.
I learned to love and become like water.
To be just a bit closer to embodying water.
This has become both my message and my mission:
Transformation doesn’t need to be loud.
It can be quiet, intimate, and alive.
All you need is already inside you — waiting in the quiet voice of your fluid system.
💧 Join my online Continuum series this Thursday — a space to explore, soften, awaken, and embody the water that you are.

A morning thought - power of somatic/body awareness/body wisdom/capacity to listen to the body and receive the feedback. I believe it is so important! I dream of the world where this skill can become our evolutionary pathway.

What do you think?

I feel called to propose this moment of REWILDing through body, nature, non-verbal field and slowing down.
Come as you are.

Let’s dance

Yoga and orisha movement: 4 elements and infinity is an integration of body-oriented practices from the various traditions. In short, practicing yoga for more than 14 years made me understand that i need more dynamism in yoga. And practicing afrocuban dance for more than 10 years made me understand that i need more conscience in movement. In order to balance the dynamism and conscience. In order to give a deeper meaning to dance. In order to extend the asanas to a completely new dimension. The practice of yoga and orisha movement combines such components as the introduction to Silvestre technique (AfroBrazil) and symbolism of nature elements, Shivananda yoga asanas' sequences combined with yoruba technique exercises (Afrocuban) and classical floorbar movements and stretches, enhanced with orisha movement and symbolic gestures. It increases body strength, elasticity, ability to relax and improves the quality of movement for dancers or yoga practitioners. It balances the consience and releases the blocks as in a usual yoga class. The effect of yoga practice is enhanced by the magic and poetry of orisha movement.
