RECENSIES

Angelique F. - Gitta is one of the world's premier yogini's I ever came in touch with. From an early age, she demonstrated an innate philosophical maturity and outstanding yoga abilities. Her international modeling career meanwhile took off as she was crowned Miss Belgium at the age of 17. While she was only a child, she already had out of body experiences, she just was a special.  I always had the feeling the modeling life did not interested her that much, but as my opinion she was "adorable". She called it a " meaningful coincidence" but never liked the public attention about her private life. It was her (though) way to spread her message to the world but it worked.  Audiences around the world were stunned by the depth and power of her expression, her inside beauty, her Wisdom. Critics and hungry tabloids only talked about her private life, how they wanted it to look like, but very far from how I know the real Gita for over 21 years now. Gita, as she is. I admire and praise her for her sweet modesty and mystical intelligence which rendered listeners completely taken by surprise, compelled and astonished. After a visit to New Delhi, she told me the story about a famous family who she explained their own tradition they knew nothing about, their roots nor their spiritual background. She is tremendously rare in the power of her wisdom and speech.  In September 2015 Gitta performed and teaches at the world biggest Yoga Bhakti Event in USA, our sweet Belgian yogini, surrounded by world's most famous yoga teachers. She was offered to stay and teach in the US, but returned home, were she was born. Never ever one article in our poor Flanders about all that was published. Never one article about the Yoga opening-ceromony of the season of Sakura in Japan. Never one article about her time in Indian Ashrams, her studies in India, her travels through the Himalaya's, her stay in Tiger's Nest (Bhutan), The Royal Bhutan Marriage, her goodwill work for the international Yoga Festival of Rishikesh. She is the one and only female Belgian who ever teached yoga in Lumbini (Nepal) in a school for children. Lumbini is the sacred birthplace of Buddha. She is so modest, too modest, quiet, but does so beautiful work. Her mission, clearly, is to spread the power of love, of oneness, of kindness, of Yoga.  Abroad, she is highly praised among renown yogi's. In October 2015 she stepped back from her modelling work, cancelled every fashionshoot, every runaway show. Finally she did what she all her life always loved to do. Helping, inspiring, caring.. Be who she wanted to be. Her True Self. B(rigitta).PURE. She has covered so many international yoga magazines, had a tv show about Yoga, teached in some of the most prestigious concert halls of Europe. Having mastered a formidable yoga science, she teached (and still teaches) around the globe, but what matters to her mostly is "helping", her goodwill work, her children in Nepal, in Egypt, and offcourse, in her own country. She is so modest and pure, and that is what I love about her. 90% of the public "know" more about her then she knows about herself, as the real truth about this wonderful being was never written down. Gossip dies when it hits a wise men's ears, fortunately, not everybody is blind and sees her the way she truly is.  I always saw, "knew", "felt" from the first time ever "who" she really was. Her best friend wrote to her the truth, I fully agree his last words: "Gita, Thank u for all u have given me, U are a woman by birth and an angel by nature" -  So, writing this all down, now, is my gratitude and devotion towards her, while I am still alive. The most precious gift ever: "She". She gives me strength, power, love and insight.  I love her path, which she mostly walked alone, "too different to understand", people said, she told me: "that is the biggest compliment i can get, u know.. People live far away from their true nature, if only they could truly see their inner beauty, we would never live in a world as it is"
Her words, so powerful, so brave.  I love her! Gitta, if u read this, I love u. I bow to u. Your real life friend. 

Tineke V.  - "LA MAISON PURE" What a beautiful place! Upon entering, you're greeted by the wonderful smells of insence, herbs, tea, essential oils, and by the charming owner and yoga teacher, Gita herself.
