CAMILLE GICQUEL
Director YAI Europe

Camille  Gicquel is the PR Director for Yoga Alliance Europe News and Chairperson, Yoga  Alliance International, France Camille was  born in the West of France  and got 1introduced to Yoga thanks to her  Mom, an experienced  practitioner, who convinced her to attend a class  of Hatha yoga thinking  that it may help channelize her energy and  anxious nature, and it was a  revelation! However, after studying a  diversity of fields and working  in a lot of others, something was still  missing in her life for her to  be truly happy. Her love for travelling  and her thirst for discoveries,  encounters and new experiences finally  took her to India, the ancestral  place of traditional yoga. Her  encounter with Swami Vidyanand and his  system of Transformational Hatha  Yoga have then totally convinced her  that she wanted to live her life  following the path of Yoga. Camille is a  Yoga Alliance International  Certified Yoga Teacher for 500 hours level,  Master in Transformational  Yoga and Meditation. She studied under the  guidance of Swami Vidyanand  in New Delhi and Auroville. She is also the  Chair Person of Yoga  Alliance International France and in charge of  SriMa School branch near Auroville.
