My Story
Hi, I'm Hélène and I'm the founder of PureGlow.
I would love to introduce myself a bit more to you. I'm a 90's Kid living in Antwerp, Belgium. Although Belgium is the country where I live, my eyes have been spoiled already to see and experience a lot of other countries and cultures all around the world. These pieces of experiences with cultures, yoga and languages brought me to my greatest self of today.
I'm so blessed to fill up my backpack with all these experiences from living in a campervan to cohousing, from teaching with a translator by my side in Vietnam to be a nanny for kids in Melbourne I got to love so much as if they were my own kids,...everything has a purpose that appears or happens on your path. You just have to have faith that all these up and down parts are part of your growth.
“Yoga is a big part of my growth.”

Dancing has always been a part of me since I was 5 years old. Every movement stood for the way I felt. The older I got, the more I wanted to explore from dancestyles besides ballet. Modern jazz and hiphop were two of them I did untill my early twenties. At that time, next to my study for being a teacher, I was introduced to yoga for the first time. What I thought of my first yogasession:
“Love that vibe and wauw those skills”.
I felt I wasn't there yet at all but I wanted to grow more into this style. I started to take yogaclasses in a yogastudio and at the gym. And everytime I did join,
I felt I could “be myself and express my innerself”.
And that's my most important base of every dancestyle I ever did.
Being yourself and expressing what you feel through those movements and vibes.
“That brings you to a greater you”
Well, exactly, that happend to me in Bali while doing my 200hrs Vinyasa/Hatha course. It has been a big ride where you fully learn to balance
your inner and you outerself.
As you can read, “yoga is a lot more than a workout on your mat”.
It got me into a healthier lifestyle, being fully satisfied of who you are and what you have and being proud of owning the yogaskills I was dreaming of. So here we are to the day where I started to share this energy and skills with you all in the end of 2019. From onlinesessions to livesessions on events and more.
​
Hope to meet you soon!
Namasté!
