Marjorie S. Meyssignac
Cultivate Presence & Activate Inner Peace
My name is Marjorie
I've been practising yoga since 2000 — almost by chance, pregnant with my first child, looking for ground beneath my feet during a time of great change. That first step onto the mat changed everything. What began as a practice became a path, and that path has never stopped widening.
Rooted for many years in the precision and depth of Iyengar yoga, I gradually explored other approaches — Yin, Vinyasa, meditation, energy healing — led by a curiosity I've never quite managed to contain. I've been teaching since 2006, and every year I keep training, questioning, learning.
My life looks a lot like my practice: I move by feel, one opening at a time. I left France in 1996 and lived in England, Spain, then Japan, where I taught for many years. In early 2024 I left Tokyo without a precise map — and that nomadic chapter took me all the way to Sri Lanka, where I taught yoga and trained in sound baths and vibro-acoustic massage with the Shantika School. An encounter with sound as a healing tool, that found its place naturally within everything I already carried.
Today I'm putting down roots on the French Riviera — between Nice and Marseille — with a desire to create, to teach, and to build connections with people and places that resonate.
Off the mat, you'll find me barefoot in the grass at sunrise, or with a guitar in my hands. Nature, the body in the elements, sound — the same threads, woven differently. Music has always been part of me: I've sung in bands, recorded albums, lent my voice to electronic projects. Maybe that's why sound work felt so familiar from the very first moment.
What guides me, in teaching as in life: staying curious, sharing what I've truly lived, and coming back — again and again — to the present moment.
