Pur Azur promotes the practice of fasting that respects the body and mind, reserved for to healthy adults.
This is a center approved by the Francophone Federation of Fasting and Hiking (FFJR). The Federation brings together around 130 committed professionals under a single label: we joined in 2022, thus committing to respecting its charter and code of ethics.
Pur Azur strives to transmit to her clients what she has received and which makes the strength of the FFJR network: complete and rigorous training of her guides, on all theoretical and practical aspects relating to the practice of fasting, hiking and the supervision of stays. Our continuing education is provided by the Académie Médicale du Jeûne, which gives us access to the latest studies and an understanding of research topics related to fasting.
We identify with this collective, which upholds the values of openness, mutual support, and sharing experiences.
Our values
The Link to the Living
When fasting, our body better perceives what connects it to the rest of life: our senses are awakened, sharpened by this digestive and mental pause that mutes the noise of the world. So that everyone perceives how fragile this balance of nature is and how much humans depend on it. Let us try to maintain our capacity for wonder. To forget this need for possession specific to humankind. The country of Grasse is that of the rose, the world capital of perfume. A multitude of sensory experiences become possible.
« When the rose opens, happy to be beautiful,
From its first glance, it enchants those around it.» Louise Ackermann
The Passion of Humanity
By choosing this profession, what drives us is both our desire to share best practices and to take care of people in all their dimensions. A happy and fulfilling life requires listening to your body, your emotions, and respecting yourself. Choosing to fast makes this transformation possible, the first step of which may be to eat differently. Our cells, and therefore our entire body, will be impacted. Witnessing this awakening is a gift and one of the reasons we exist.
The beautiful
In the land of the perfume plant, rose, jasmine, tuberose, and orange blossom, aesthetics and refinement are at work. Our reception area strives to be worthy of this. This is why we strive to reflect this concern for Beauty in our support and the center's environment. Ultimately, to ensure the success of all our stays, with precious memories for everyone!
The team
Our team is at your side so that everyone can experience this pleasure on their body and mind.
Carole
Founder of PurAzur, certified FFJR Fasting & Hiking Support
For years, I have supported those who dare to retrain or the entrepreneurial adventure. In June 2020, in the midst of the health chaos, I went to fast in the calanques... A revelation.
I discovered the power of emptiness, of silence, of listening to the body. I understood that health comes from within, that fasting lays bare our true needs, our deepest hungers. This experience transformed me, energized me, and gave me a crazy desire to share my knowledge.
Trained by the FFJR, I created Pur Azur® : Fasting and hiking stays on the French Riviera, combining well-being, nature, pleasure, and awakening the senses.

Cranio-sacral osteopath, fasciatherapist | French Riviera
It was during a fast in Valbonne that I met Carole. We have since established a close collaboration. I am delighted to accompany you during hikes, evening talks on many subjects that fascinate me: the power of plants and essential oils, but also the role of water on our body. I also offer craniosacral osteopathy and fasciatherapy sessions, which help the body to rebalance and release tension, as well as an introduction to Munz Floor, a gentle method for relieving spinal pain and chronic pain.
Looking forward to sharing these compassionate approaches to the Living with you!
Nathalie
A journey In India, an incredible connection to this land, the discovery of Yoga and its eight branches, as well as Ayurveda, opened me to another dimension of Being.
When the airline I work for closed its doors, I naturally turned to Ayurveda and trained to spread this wonderful and ancestral knowledge and provide an answer to people seeking "well-being." For 22 years already And it continues to nourish me!
A practitioner of Ayurvedic massage and other traditional Indian treatments, I am also an Ashtanga yoga teacher, Reiki master, and vibrational sound journey practitioner.

Ashtanga & Hatha Yoga,
Postural and Nidra | French Riviera
Namasté! Previously, I was a dance teacher. Then yoga entered my life. Everything followed naturally: today, I teach classes in my own studio in the Alpes-Maritimes.
I have received over 800 hours of training and am Yoga Alliance certified in 8 types of yoga and also in Pilates.
I love to bring out, during my classes, all the benefits of each practice on both the body and the mind.
It's a wonder to realize that the postures adapt to each person's specific needs.
When fasting, the body finds its own rhythm because it has to change its metabolism. I adjust to this particular tempo for each person, of course.
Frédéric
Massages thaï & Californian, Chi Nei Tsang | French Riviera
More than a massage, I invite you on a sensory journey, far from everyday life, to the heart of yourself.
Trained in I have explored, learned, and experienced many techniques...
Today, I am moving away from it all to offer you much more than a massage:
a moment of pure disconnection, a tailor-made and intuitive experience.
" The cadence is rhythmic, invigorating, then soft and light. The chords are perfectly mastered, the tempo appropriate.
| Like a pianist who carries you away with his music, Frédéric takes you on a journey through his golden hands. »
