Christele Cozema-Cournol

Born and raised just outside Paris, I am an island girl (my parents are from Guadeloupe, French West Indies). I have a Bachelor in Accounting. I started my first work as a model after signing a contract with a prestigious model agency. In 2010, I started working for Club med as a front desk agent, from France to Egypt, to Guadeloupe, to Morocco and Mauritius Island, I loved every minutes of it. For 10 years, I traveled the globe and lived in different countries until finally settling down in Washington DC in 2012. If I could use a word today to describe myself it will be “wanderlust”. I love to travel, to see the world, to get lost, to be free and to learn about other culture. People also say that I am a great listener and a good adviser. My yoga journey started in Washington DC in January 2018. After a year of practice, I decided to start a Yoga Teacher Training with Marie Belle (Roots Love Yoga) to deepen my practice. From Vinyasa Flow to Ashtanga Yoga, my practice completely changed and I fell in love with teaching others.

Being a teacher, my mission is to help students with a practice that is accessible to them and at the same time challenging. I want to inspire them to achieve what they thought was impossible.
