Are you new to yoga? Or would you like to have someone in addition to online yoga who pays attention to your alignment in the various yoga positions? Perhaps you also notice that in one position or the other one area of the body hurts and you don't quite know how to vary the posture?

My goal is to enable you to have a yoga practice that is characterized by a functional approach (as opposed to a purely aesthetic approach that only looks at the external form). For a healthy practice that should give you a better understanding and awareness of your body.

Overall, my classes are very keen to pick you up where you are. Accordingly, beginners are also very welcome! 🙂


Some information about me:

Thanks to my mother, I started practicing Iyengar Yoga as a teenager and there I experienced firsthand how beneficial yoga can be. And not only on a physical, but also on a mental level. Accordingly, I realized early on that yoga pursues a holistic approach: always understanding body and mind in interaction with one another and not as separate from one another. In a society that is shaped by dualism, I find this approach very valuable and empowering to counteract the experiences of alienation that we are often exposed to due to external norms. All the more so to come back into contact with ourselves.
That was over 12 years ago. I later tried different styles of yoga for myself, only to end up with a functional approach, which I also teach today. I always see myself as a student who is always learning.

I really enjoy dealing with bodies and movements and learning more about them. I am also a budding physiotherapist.

In my yoga training I focused on a clear alignment in the positions and also got to know therapeutic elements of yoga. In the meantime, I have completed many advanced training courses in various areas. These include YinYoga, HormonYoga, Therapeutic Yoga, Yoga & Somatics, Yoga & Depression, Yoga Anatomy, Yoga for the shoulder and neck area, Creative Sequences & Drills. I am also a trained faculty trainer.

+++ I can also teach in English +++

I also offer regular Zoom courses in German:

Tuesdays 19: 30-20: 30 YinYoga
Saturdays 11 am-12:15pm Functional Basic Yoga
