I have studied various yoga courses with Malaysian Yoga Society (MYS) and Malaysian Association of Yoga Instructors (MAYI) both of which registered with the Ministry of Education Malaysia, National Association of Private Education Institutions, Malaysia (NAPEI) and Human Resources Development Fund, Malaysia (HRDF). Through teaching Yoga, I have the rare privilege of leading people back to themselves – out of their busy minds and back into their bodies, turning into the body intelligence we all possess. I look forward to incorporating this ancient Indian practice into my teaching.

 

I am a relentless person, curious about human beings, dog-eared, have a wicked sense of humor and a firm believer of anything goes, who is able to hit the ground and run, and most importantly getting things done.

Isabelle Bacquenois - Sannyasi Yogapushpa

 

Sannyasin Yogapushpa- Isabelle is the founder of the Yunus Emre farm, Yogic Ecological farm, in South Turkey near Antalya. She is French and born in 1959 in France. After having been flying as bush pilot then airline pilot around the world, she discovered Yoga in 1999, met her Spiritual Master Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati in 2001 and her whole life changed for the best! In 2001 she underwent the 4 months certificate course in Yogic Studies, in Bihar Yoga Bharati (in Munger India) under the guidance of Swami Niranjan. Then she spent several months in India, serving in different places, travelling in some sacred locations or ashrams. She received Sannyas initiation on 25 december 2002 and since then tries to follow humbly this difficult path of self knowledge and self evolution where each and every experience of life may be considered as a sparkle of teaching. In 2003 she came back to France, in the BijaYogashram where she served and started the full Satyananda Yoga Teacher Training course (3 and half long year course). In 2004, she had to go back to the world where her pilot life waited for her. Some more years in the aviation world, time to be lead to Turkey, country of Mevlana and Yunus Emre, Sufi Masters and Poets, and ultimately she settled down, created the Yunus Emre farm and let aviation quit her for good, in 2008. She founded the Yunus Emre farm as a project dedicated to Mother Nature, and to the next generations who will have to manage the world... The farm’s design is – as far as possible using the powerful tools of permaculture and the farm transmits the knowledge and wisdom of Yoga by organising seminars, programs, retreats. Yogapushpa- Isabelle lives all year in the farm, and is also giving yoga classes and programs in Yoga Studyo Antalya, yoga center that she founded in 2013 in Antalya.

On the 12 september 2012 yet, due to a terrible forest fire, the farm has been almost entirely destroyed. Only the yoga places were remaining :o) Since this time, the struggle and challenge are high to rebuild the farm. Yet, slowly slowly and with the help of all friends of the Yunus Emre farm around the world, things happen. More updated information to be found in the websites of the farm.
