WELCOME TO SAINT AGNE
WHY ARE YOU HERE?
To practise? To learn? To reconnect?
Or perhaps to question everything you thought you knew.
Domaine de Saint Agne is our home and a growing community project on 10 hectares of land, mainly forest, in South-West France.
Rooted in Sikh Dharma and Kundalini Yoga, we practise, study and share daily life. We explore what it means to live with purpose, take responsibility and contribute to the world we are part of.
In the present, for the future.
OUR VISION
Spiritual practice is not separate from life. It IS life, here and now.
Devotion and action. Inner discipline and outer responsibility. The courage to question, the commitment to act.
At Saint Agne, we bring this into our daily lives. Through sadhana, study, living together and caring for the land.
We don’t have all the answers. And that’s precisely why we keep asking questions.
There is little value in spiritual knowledge if it doesn’t change how we act in the world.
Practice. Nature. Community.
LIFE AT SAINT AGNE
Days here start with a short yoga practise or aquarian sadhana when there is a group. We practise Kundalini Yoga, meditate, chant and study. The holy book of the Sikhs - the Siri Guru Granth Sahib - has a home in our gurdwara.
We spend a lot of time outdoors. Walking through the forest, swimming in one of the lakes, visiting local French markets .. enjoying the changing seasons. If you’re staying a little longer, the Pyrenees are waiting.
Life also happens around the kitchen table. We cook, share meals, exchange ideas and enjoy good company.
Saint Agne is a place for learning, too. We host teacher trainings, retreats and gatherings, welcoming people who want to deepen their practice and experience life in community.
COMING IN 2027
Kundalini Yoga Level 1 Teacher Training
Next spring, we begin our first Kundalini Yoga Level 1 Teacher Training here at Saint Agne.
Three immersive training weeks over six months, with time to go deeper into the practice, the teachings and your own experience.
You don’t have to want to become a teacher. You can also come because you want to deepen your practice, your understanding and your connection to yourself.

FRENCH CONNECTIONS
Saint Agne grew from a wish we had carried for a long time: to create a place where we could share more of what we have learned, built and developed over the years.
We have worked, raised a family, built things, taught, trained, organised and kept learning. Kundalini Yoga and the teachings of Sikh Dharma have been an important part of that journey, and have deeply influenced the way we live and the choices we make.
Moving to Saint Agne gave us the space to bring more of those things together. To practise and teach. To welcome people. To share what we know and learn from what others bring. To create, build and take care of a place together.
We are still building it. Literally, in many ways.
OUR STORY
Jagat Prem & Wim
We are quite different.
Jagat Prem (Annemieke) has spent more than thirty years practising yoga and works as a teacher, trainer, coach and mentor. Wim is a builder and maker, the person who can look at an old building, a piece of wood or a seemingly impossible plan and work out how to make it happen.
Together we have raised a family, built and renovated homes, organised trainings and events, travelled, worked hard and changed direction more than once.
Saint Agne brings many of those different parts of our lives together.
We are still building the place, slowly and with our own hands. And we love seeing it become a place where people come to practise, learn, contribute and bring something of their own.
