Nos postes d’enseignement rémunérés sont désormais pourvus, mais nous ouvrons une autre possibilité pour les professeurs de yoga récemment diplômés qui souhaitent acquérir une première expérience de l’enseignement en retraite.

Nous proposons une résidence de yoga de deux semaines dans le cadre paisible et historique du Château de Montcuquet, dans le Tarn. Le 2 au 16 Novembre

✨ Ce que nous offrons :

• Une chambre individuelle au château
• Tous les repas
• Une indemnité de transport de 200 €
• L’occasion d’enseigner dans un environnement intimiste et international, et de développer son expérience professionnelle

En contrepartie, le professeur résident dispensera des cours de yoga réguliers et participera légèrement à la vie quotidienne du château.

Nous recherchons une personne chaleureuse et motivée, désireuse de faire ses premiers pas dans l’enseignement en retraite.

Les places sont limitées et proposées de manière sélective.

🌿 Résidence Yoga au Château de Montcuquet — novembre 2026 & mars 2027

Nous recherchons un(e) professeur(e) de yoga pour rejoindre le Château de Montcuquet, dans le Tarn, pour l’une de nos prochaines résidences de yoga.

2–16 novembre 2026
15–29 mars 2027

La résidence est une occasion de venir vivre pendant deux semaines au château, d’y enseigner le yoga et de faire partie de la petite communauté qui s’y crée pendant le séjour.

Vous enseignez une séance de yoga par jour, avec une séance supplémentaire par semaine — soit 11 jours d’enseignement au total.

En échange, votre chambre privée et tous vos repas sont offerts. Le reste du temps vous appartient : profiter du château et de la nature environnante, pratiquer, vous promener, lire, vous reposer, découvrir la région ou simplement savourer le plaisir d’avoir, pendant quelques jours, nulle part où aller.

Nous souhaitons également que le professeur résident participe naturellement à la vie du groupe : accueillir les participants, partager les repas, être présent pour les petites choses du quotidien et contribuer à l’atmosphère chaleureuse et paisible du séjour.

Ce n’est donc pas simplement une opportunité d’enseignement. C’est aussi une invitation à vivre au château pendant deux semaines, à enseigner, rencontrer des personnes venues d’horizons différents et découvrir le rythme particulier de Montcuquet.

Nous recherchons une personne chaleureuse, fiable et expérimentée, qui aime autant transmettre le yoga que vivre au sein d’une petite communauté, et qui apprécie un environnement paisible et rural.

Si cette expérience vous attire, envoyez-moi un message avec quelques mots sur vous, votre parcours dans le yoga et la période qui vous intéresse.

What if you gave yourself permission to truly slow down?

To step away from the constant “on” mode.
To put the mind down for a while.
To breathe deeply, soften, and come back into your body.

Our 7-Day Nervous System Retreat at Château de Montcuquet is a week designed for exactly that.

✨ Gentle, embodied yoga
🌬️ Breathwork & nervous system regulation
🌿 Time to rest, walk, read, or simply be
🤍 A small, intimate group
🏰 A beautiful 15th-century château surrounded by gardens and hills
🍲 Nourishing meals and space where you don't have to manage anything

This isn't about pushing yourself or perfecting a pose.

It's a week to land, regulate, and leave feeling more grounded and clear.

📍 Château de Montcuquet, Lautrec, France
📅 5–11 October or 11–17 October
✨ No particular yoga level required.

If your body has been asking for a pause, perhaps this is your invitation to listen.

Come slow down with us. 🤍 Places are limited to keep the retreat intimate.
