Solarsteps Yoga
Bonjour!
I'm Your Corporate Yoga Instructor
Welcome to SolarSteps Yoga! I'm Jay, your go-to corporate yoga instructor, here to help transform your wellness culture into a vibrant, healthy space—one step at a time.
Originally from France 🥐, my journey has taken me across the globe, culminating in my training at Gyan Yog Breath, India, where I earned my YTT 200 certification. Fluent in French and in English, I bring a unique multicultural perspective to my role as a corporate yoga instructor.
A Journey of Discovery
My journey into yoga has been rich and diverse. From waiter to graphic designer, along with experience in non-formal education, my background has broadened my perspective on my professional posture. My travels through Southeast Asia, Australia, and South America introduced me to yoga, a practice that transformed the way I care for myself.
In 2022, I became a certified yoga teacher. Today, I combine these experiences to offer a unique approach to corporate yoga, bringing movement and harmony to professionals seeking well-being.

Where the nomadic spirit meets the sedentary corporate world, movement becomes the bridge.
SolarSteps Yoga
The idea for SolarSteps Yoga was born during my travels, where I worked in coliving and coworking spaces and witnessed the toll that long hours of sitting take on office workers. As someone who spent years as a graphic designer, I experienced firsthand the strain of a sedentary lifestyle. Yoga became my way to restore balance and freedom of movement.
Inspired by these experiences, I created SolarSteps Yoga to help desk workers break free from the desk discomfort. My approach combines functional movement and accessible yoga, designed specifically for people who spend most of their day sitting.
What Makes SolarSteps Yoga
Different?
01 Unique Teaching Style
My approach is functional, designed for modern desk workers. Having assessed the impact of prolonged sitting, I craft sessions that directly address these issues. Each practice incorporates targeted movements to alleviate discomfort and enhance mobility, ensuring participants leave feeling more equipped for their day.
02 Accessible Practice
Yoga should be for everyone, regardless of experience. I eliminate the jargon and keep things simple. My offerings, such as Office Chair Yoga, are designed to fit seamlessly into a busy workday, making it easier than ever to implement wellness initiatives in the workplace.
03 Tailored Wellness Solutions
At SolarSteps Yoga, I offer personalised wellness solutions (such as Yoga Workshop or Yoga for Corporates) crafted to meet the unique needs and aspirations of your team. Whether it's easing physical discomfort or nurturing mental and emotional well-being, my holistic approach ensures that your employees flourish from their desk.
