I enjoy working from the bottom of my heart.
Giving room for development. The living, loving, joyous expression of life.

PHILOSOPHY. My motivation is to inspire people and help them to enhance their quality of life, which may reach far beyond the yoga practice into everyday life. For life is exciting, always new and always different!

YOGA. On the physical side I teach YOGA practice since I am convinced that this work prepares the body to be a healthy home to comfort a clear mind and healthy soul.
I teach yoga groups and private classes of all levels in my yoga studio south of Munich. For individual appointments I am also happy to meet at any suitable location. My several years of yoga education have been in the health oriented tradition of BKS Iyengar and I have followed since then trainings with many different international Iyengar yoga-teachers.

HOLISTIC PATH. I have followed a YOGA-therapy-training with Ganesh Mohan. And together with an NLP Master training and a formation in kinesiology and systemic constellation work, all those inputs have given me the basic tools to form my work with people.
In my spiritual growing I am following the teachings of Stephen Busby and Thomas Hübl and engage in ongoing international groups with both wonderful teachers.
One of my resources is swimming with whales and dolphins in the open ocean. Their grace is humbling and I feel blessed to integrate their incredibly loving and peaceful energy into my work.

LIFE. Before the body-mind-oriented work, I had a first career in marketing, taking care of concept and client contact. I have also worked in translation and writing for special interest magazines, specifying on veterinary subjects. And of course, the most important work in the past years has been raising two great kids who are now young adults.

I was born in 1967 and have spent several years in foreign countries, including my communication studies in the US and some years in the south of France. In 2015, I came home to Bavaria after having spent a year in Bali, Indonesia.
My work is influenced by all of the experiences and encounters I have made and integrated so far. My focus lies on using my knowledge and practical experience to support people: mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.
