Tropical Background<\/h3>

Before moving to France and creating CALMA Studio, I studied and taught Pilates classes in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for over a decade to men and women, without thinking much about the concepts. My work was a fusion of Pilates exercises and therapeutic body awareness with a touch of dance expression. It was also marked by a good dose of joy and pleasure, so inherent to Brazilian culture.<\/p>

Womanhood Calling<\/h3>

Still in Rio, I became a doula and expanded my professional career by creating classes for pregnant women. When I became a mother, I developed unique birth preparation and postpartum classes. Faced with my new roles and responsibilities, I became very interested and involved in the complexity of women's nature. I felt the desire to support myself and other women. That\u2019s why I started organizing women\u2019s circles.<\/p>

The Cyclic Nature<\/h3>

A woman's life is marked by the presence or absence of menstruation which marks feminine passages and specific phases of life. As I got to know my students and myself intimately, I became more aware of our cyclical patterns. I noticed that my classes were different depending on my own cycle and energy level. Working with the same women over many years, I was also able to notice the changes in their mood and energy. Some always missed a class during their period. Others disappeared even before, faced with a lack of energy and overall tension, then reappeared to start again.<\/p>

Putting The Puzzles Together<\/h3>

After moving to France and becoming a mother for the second time, I took advantage of the opportunity and time to redefine my work. I found myself looking for a different approach, woman-centered, and one that would support women in every phase of their lives.\u00a0<\/p>

CALMA Concept Creation<\/h3>
In my busy, multi-role life, I found myself saying\u00a0calma<\/em> almost every other word, for myself, my children and my partner. Like a mantra, it was an unconscious call for pause, relief and silence.<\/div>

In Portuguese calma is synonymous with calm, tranquility and serenity. I realized that this word embodies my search \u2013 an antidotum to the pressures of the modern lifestyle. We need calma<\/em> to give a break from our stressful and busy lives. We also need calma<\/em> to approach our training while respecting our cyclical nature and preserving our femininity.<\/p><\/div>

CALMA Philosophy<\/h3>
Within the letters of CALMA, I found words that had always been important in my classes. On the level of mind it is composed of Connection, Acceptance, Love, Mindfulness and Awareness.\nOn the level of body it contains Core, Alignement, Laughter, Movement and Agility.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
CALMA invites women to abandon automatic repetition and masculine models of competition with ourselves and others. It emphasizes self-love and self-acceptance to cope with the pressures of society. It invites awareness, joy, pleasure and laughter.<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

L’HISTOIRE DE CALMA Fond Tropical Avant de m’installer en France et de cr\u00e9er CALMA Studio, j’ai \u00e9tudi\u00e9 et donn\u00e9 des cours de Pilates \u00e0 Rio de Janeiro, au Br\u00e9sil, pendant plus d’une d\u00e9cennie \u00e0 des hommes et des femmes, sans trop r\u00e9fl\u00e9chir aux concepts. Mon travail \u00e9tait une fusion d\u2019exercices Pilates et de conscience th\u00e9rapeutique du corps avec une touche d\u2019expression dans\u00e9e. Elle a \u00e9galement \u00e9t\u00e9 marqu\u00e9e par une bonne dose de joie et de plaisir, si inh\u00e9rente \u00e0 la culture br\u00e9silienne. La F\u00e9minit\u00e9 Toujours \u00e0 Rio, je suis devenue doula et j’ai \u00e9largi mon parcours professionnel en cr\u00e9ant des cours pour les femmes enceintes. Lorsque je suis devenue m\u00e8re, j’ai d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 des cours de pr\u00e9paration \u00e0 la naissance et post-partum. Face \u00e0 mes nouveaux r\u00f4les et responsabilit\u00e9s, je me suis beaucoup int\u00e9ress\u00e9e et impliqu\u00e9e dans la complexit\u00e9 de la nature femme. J’ai ressenti le d\u00e9sir de soutenir moi-m\u00eame et les autres femmes. C\u2019est pourquoi j\u2019ai commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 organiser des cercles de femmes. La Nature Cyclique La vie de la femme est marqu\u00e9e par la pr\u00e9sence ou l\u2019absence de r\u00e8gles qui marquent les passages f\u00e9minins et les phases sp\u00e9cifiques de la vie. En connaissant intimement mes \u00e9tudiantes et moi-m\u00eame, je suis devenue plus consciente de nos sch\u00e9mas cycliques. J’ai remarqu\u00e9 que mes cours \u00e9taient diff\u00e9rents en fonction de mon propre cycle et de mon niveau d’\u00e9nergie. En travaillant avec les m\u00eames femmes pendant de nombreuses ann\u00e9es, j’ai \u00e9galement pu percevoir les changements dans leur humeur et leur \u00e9nergie. Certaines manquaient toujours un cours pendant leurs r\u00e8gles. D\u2019autres ont disparu m\u00eame avant, confront\u00e9s \u00e0 un manque d\u2019\u00e9nergie et de tension globale, puis sont r\u00e9apparus pour red\u00e9marrer. R\u00e9flexion Apr\u00e8s avoir d\u00e9m\u00e9nag\u00e9 en France et \u00eatre devenue maman pour la deuxi\u00e8me fois, j’ai profit\u00e9 de l’opportunit\u00e9 et du temps pour red\u00e9finir mon travail. Je me suis retrouv\u00e9e \u00e0 la recherche d\u2019une approche diff\u00e9rente, centr\u00e9e sur la femme, la nature cyclique et qui soutiendrait les femmes dans chaque phase de leur vie.\u00a0 Cr\u00e9ation Du Concept CALMA Dans ma vie bien remplie et aux multiples r\u00f4les, je me suis retrouv\u00e9 \u00e0 dire\u00a0calma presque tous les autres mots, pour moi-m\u00eame, mes enfants et mon partenaire. Comme un mantra, c’\u00e9tait un appel inconscient \u00e0 la pause, au soulagement et au silence. En portugais calma est synonyme de calme, de tranquillit\u00e9 et de s\u00e9r\u00e9nit\u00e9. J’ai r\u00e9alis\u00e9 que ce mot incarne ma recherche \u2013 un antidotum aux pressions du style de vie moderne. Nous avons besoin de calma pour donner une pause \u00e0 nos vies stressantes et surcharg\u00e9es. Nous avons \u00e9galement besoin de calma pour aborder notre entra\u00eenement en respectant notre nature cyclique et en pr\u00e9servant notre f\u00e9minit\u00e9. Philosophie CALMA CALMA repr\u00e9sente toutes les mots qui ont toujours \u00e9t\u00e9 importantes dans mon travail : la connexion, l’acceptance, l’amour de soi, la pleine conscience, la conscience corporelle, le centrage, l’alignement, le mouvement et l’agilit\u00e9.\u00a0CALMA invite les femmes \u00e0 abandonner la r\u00e9p\u00e9tition automatique et les mod\u00e8les masculins de comp\u00e9tition avec nous-m\u00eames et avec les autres. Elle souligne l\u2019amour-propre et l\u2019acceptation de soi pour faire face aux pressions de la soci\u00e9t\u00e9. Elle invite \u00e0 la conscience, \u00e0 la joie, au plaisir et au rire.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-297","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[{"message":"Le permalien pour cette publication vient de changer\u00a0!
