Yoga Instructor

Brigitte Longueville
In India, 22 years ago, Brigitte started practicing yoga with Clive Sheridan. His teaching focuses Brigitteon the performance of asanas and pranayama to strengthen the body, enabling us to sit still without discomfort or distractions and thus preparing ourselves for meditation. In Amsterdam she obtained a teacher's certificate after completing a 3-year course at the 'Bharata Institute of Yoga' under the guidance of Gert van Leeuwen (author of 'Yoga in Beweging' and 'Stop RSI').

In this training she learned about body alignment and how to be able to relax while building up physical and mental strength.
Brigitte has worked with a wide variety of people and has given classes, workshops and retreats in the US, Netherlands, Belgium, India, Antigua (West-Indies) and Mexico.
