Écoute Violences Yoga

Personnes ressources
An inviting circle of yoga props arranged on a wooden floor: several different-colored but muted cotton cushions, cork yoga blocks, and neatly folded blankets forming an open ring around a central woven basket filled with smooth river stones. Each stone has a faint, natural pattern suggesting uniqueness without visible text. The background shows a minimal, uncluttered studio wall with a small statue-inspired abstract shape referencing Indian culture in a respectful, non-figurative way. Soft, warm overhead lighting blends with natural window light, creating a gentle, secure atmosphere. Photographic realism, shot from a slightly elevated angle, balanced composition, emphasizing community, non-judgment, and resilience without showing any people.

Avis

A neatly rolled slate-blue yoga mat made of textured natural rubber rests on a smooth, pale wooden floor in a quiet studio corner. Beside it lies a simple cotton bolster and a light grey wool blanket folded with care. In the background, a low wooden shelf holds unlit candles, a small brass singing bowl, and a single green plant, all softly out of focus. Gentle morning daylight filters through sheer white curtains, creating a calm, diffused glow and subtle shadows. Photographic realism, eye-level composition with shallow depth of field, conveying safety, attentive listening, and support in a serene, professional environment.

Aya Nakamura

« Pendant longtemps, je n’ai pas osé dire que ce que je vivais dans mon “école de yoga” était violent. On m’avait appris que douter du maître venait de mon ego, que mon malaise était une “résistance à travailler”. J’ai accepté des remarques humiliantes, des intrusions dans ma vie privée et des contacts physiques non désirés, en pensant que c’était le prix à payer pour avancer sur un chemin spirituel.

Découvrir des témoignages similaires m’a permis de mettre des mots sur ce que j’avais subi : emprise, manipulations, violences psychologiques et sexuelles. Je me suis rendu compte que je n’étais ni folle, ni ingrate, ni “pas assez avancée”, mais bien une personne sous emprise.

Aujourd’hui, je ne suis plus dans ce groupe. Je suis encore en chemin, avec des hauts et des bas, mais je ne suis plus seule. Savoir que d’autres ont vécu la même chose, et qu’il existe des personnes ressources pour écouter et accompagner, m’a donné la force de demander de l’aide et de reprendre peu à peu confiance en moi. »

Je me reconnais dans les histoires publiées ici ; elles m’ont donné la force de rompre le contact avec mon ancien « maître ».
