tradition in 2004 and has
been to India to study. In 2005 she met her first Sanskrit
teacher,Manorama,
Director of Sanskrit Studies and disciple of Sri Brahmananda Sarasvati.
Manorama
unveiled the path of Luminous Shabda (sound) for Angelique-a path that
combines
Sanskrit, Meditation, and Yoga Philosophy. Since then, Sanskrit has
become
an unequivocal component of Angelique's Yoga Sadhana. Her primary
inspiration to share this topic with others is to relay the experience
of yoga through sound.
