From Tokyo to Washington, via Brussels and Bordeaux, I practiced yoga for a long time and got to know several forms of yoga and different instructors (teachers - as you prefer). Each one had its own style and merits, but Elisabeth still holds that little palm in my heart. For I cannot forget her dedication to sharing her love of yoga, to making sure that everyone finds well-being and joy in her practice. Elisabeth manages to adapt to the difficulties (or ease) of each person, as if her group class was made up of a multitude of private lessons. Even today, when an instructor moves a little quickly from one posture to another, I remember Elisabeth's words to find myself quickly and correctly in the requested position. Thank you Elisabeth, I would come back to Brussels, just to practice yoga with you again !

I have practiced yoga with a variety of teachers in different countries for 18 years, but few courses have been as beneficial, as deep, and as focused on a holistic approach as Elisabeth's. As an experienced and enthusiastic therapist, she demonstrates an impressive ability to help her students; on the one hand, by helping them understand the profound physiological benefits of the poses and breathing techniques, and on the other, by reminding them of the importance of the mind-body connection and its usefulness for authentic and complete healing. Elisabeth manages to vary her classes effectively so that students can constantly learn new things and increase their self-awareness, which in turn has many benefits in the public and private sphere. Her sensitivity to the individual needs of each student naturally merges with her instincts as a teacher, allowing her to inspire, guide and accompany us in a wise and sensitive way, wherever we find ourselves on our path. I wholeheartedly recommend her sessions to anyone who truly wants to engage in the cultivation of physical and mental well-being.

What a surprise after ten years of yoga to have been able to renew, enrich and deepen my practice! Many thanks Elisabeth. Your teaching, which is at the same time benevolent, rigorous and takes into account the globality and singularity of each of us, makes it a real therapeutic tool. This beautiful transmission is now an integral part of my daily life. And for all these reasons, I am sincerely grateful to you.

When I consulted Elisabeth Rivasseau I was in a difficult personal situation: I had just learned that a loved one was very ill, while I lived thousands of miles away. Very helpless, and without energy in this traumatic situation I asked Elisabeth if she could help me. I knew from her therapeutic and energy work that her yoga therapist approach would allow me to ease my suffering, to regain my energy and my ability to react to this event. I really appreciated Elisabeth's rigour, her competence but also her kindness. She was able to combine movements adapted to my situation with attentive listening to soothe the trauma. I felt a relief from the first session, we had several sessions which allowed me to be present in an adapted way for my loved one, while respecting my need to recharge. Yoga therapy has proven to be a very stimulating approach that respects the person in all their dimensions. Elisabeth is a very attentive and available practitioner who creates trust.

As a psychologist and psychotherapist I have been able to work together with Elisabeth in the accompaniment of some patients. I can tell you about our work together with a very anxious young girl. After several sessions, it became clear to me that she needed to experience the calming effects of the body in order to silence her ever alert mind. I advised the mother to contact Elisabeth as a complement, in order to encourage a more durable calming and stress management for this young girl. Yoga therapy also allows the release of energies that are otherwise blocked, thus slowing down people's capacity for resilience. It allows to reach blockages that are more difficult to reach by methods based exclusively on verbal exchange. Finally, it makes it possible to bypass the verbal elaboration difficulties of certain people, while relieving them. Elisabeth Rivasseau practises this approach with professionalism and a great deal of humanity. She listens to the needs of the patients, taking into account their history and their sensitivity, and she accompanies them as closely as possible to their needs. Finally, working with Elisabeth as a professional is an enrichment that allows her to deepen her field of intervention for the benefit of people
