ABOUT ME


If you see everything you encounter as an opportunity for 

 inner growth, you gain inner strength."

(Milarepa)


Being in motion on all levels has always been a central theme in my life.  In 2005, after a very challenging time, I started practicing yoga.

 

Over the years, what was initially intended as a balance to everyday life has become a way of life for me, allowing me to experience the necessary balance, joy in life and a sense of inner peace. This made it possible for me to juggle my management job, my family and my normal everyday life. I quickly developed the desire to immerse myself even deeper in yoga.

 

I was inspired and encouraged by my teachers to continue on my yoga path. The more intensively I studied yoga philosophy, the clearer it became to me that life, with all the tasks it presents us with, is very colorful, multifaceted and instructive. It all depends on how you look at it. Recognizing this, acting accordingly and, above all, being prepared to let go of the old and habits is not the easiest exercise, but it is ultimately very liberating and valuable.

 

I am certified according to the worldwide recognized Yoga Alliance guidelines, YA E-RYT 500 certified and have completed well over 800 training hours (60 min. sessions). I have been teaching, organizing yoga retreats & trips and leading workshops for 10 years. I also work as a trainer and lecturer for mindfulness, stress management and burnout prevention. As a certified specialist consultant for stress and burnout prevention, I accompany people out of their crises and support them in saying “YES” to life again.  

In addition to my own practice, it is very important to me to regularly attend workshops and teacher trainings with renowned and internationally recognized teachers.

 

I would like to thank all my teachers who have accompanied me on my yoga path and have had a lasting influence on me, who continue to inspire me and from whom I can learn again and again!

 

I would especially like to thank:

Richard & Meret Hackenberg, Nella & Dr. Ralph Skuban, Erika Trice,  Chad Hamrin, Annie Carpenter and Bob Metzler, as well as my first yoga teacher Monika Resch, who gave me access to yoga in the first place.

For me, yoga means......

 

the perfect blend of strength and calm, balance and movement.

The connection of body, mind and soul into one unit. A path that never ends, a lifelong process that brings permanent change and growth. 

Yoga is a gift for me...

 

because it calms my mind, helps me to think clearly, gives me the necessary the necessary balance and the feeling of inner peace and therefore more joy in life. It has caught me and never let me go.

 

 

Yoga is my faithful companion through life.

 

Sharing this with others gives me great joy and is a matter close to my heart. I am very grateful and happy that I can accompany my fellow human beings on their path to more physical and mental health, harmony, joie de vivre and ultimately, to themselves.
