About this Retreat
Your Guides
Aurélie — Yoga Teacher
I came to yoga 10 years ago, and what started as a personal journey gradually became a true philosophy of life. Passionate about this practice and everything it carries — breath, presence, connection to oneself — I felt called to share it.
I completed two 200-hour teacher training programs: one with Sampoorna Yoga School, based in India, and one in an ashram in Baja California with the Yandara Institute. These two immersions, each deeply transformative in their own way, shaped how I teach — with warmth, accessibility, and a genuine belief that yoga is for everyone.
I have been teaching for 3 years, and I created Matsya Hostel in Anglet as a natural extension of this vision: a place where travelers can discover or deepen this beautiful philosophy, on and off the mat.
