We left Delhi for Agra, by train. An intense ride where the train rolled over a motorbike, a piece blew away the window of,my row, the train had to stop. I had pieces of glass all over my hair, a man was bleeding a little. India is always an adventure!
Did you know that the Taj Mahal is the Tomb of love? Built by Shah Jahan for him and his wife Mumtaz, who passed away while giving birth to their 14th child.
A love story that deserves a Hollywood movie. He met her when he was visiting a market anonymously. She was watching a necklace, he bought it for her. They’ve been married for 20 years.
Right before she died, she asked that when the time comes they will be buried together. So he built the Taj Mahal, where they are both still buried.
In Agra, pay a visit to the Red fort as well. Beautiful monument from the moguls era.
An interesting note for us yogis, it’s forbidden to practice yoga inside the Taj.

SmartFLOW yoga teacher. I've studied Power vinyasa, restorative, and yoga for pregnant woman with Tamal Dodge in Los Angeles. After that wonderful time, I felt attracted by movement and flow, so I studied with Shiva Rea for 300 hours her Prana Flow style. But after a yoga for scoliosis workshop and after realizing what I want in my practice and for my students, I've decided to focus on a more alignment focused yoga, and started studying with the great Annie Carpenter. Now, after more than 400h with her, my teaching skills had changed for the best. The more I learn the more I have to share with my students, so I follow different trainings every year and I had the great honor to learn from amazing teachers like Krista Cahill, Maty Ezraty or Dona Holleman.
I'm now teaching SmartFLOW YOGA, Hatha yoga, restorative yoga and chair yoga (for people with less range of motion) in Monaco most of the time, but also in some magical events such as Burning Man in Nevada.
