„I have been practicing Yoga and its philosophy in one form or another for almost all of my life but only when I started a regular, daily home practice and deepened my understanding of its philosophies about 13 years ago I realised its true potential.
The benefits came fast. I believe it is the most effective thing anyone can do to rapidly increase their quality of life.
It really could be the most important thing anyone could do for themselves.“

PRACTICING AT HOME
Every Yoga teacher would tell you that the most important practice you can do is your home practice. Why? Because only then can you really be in a private and intimate coversation with yourself. And besides, doing a little bit every day can be much more effective than doing a lot once or twice a week. Because when you are practicing true Yoga, you do not only train your body, but also your mind, your emotions and your authenticity in life.
UNDERSTANDING THE PHILOSOPHY OF YOGA
Practice and Theory, like all dualities, work together in unison. Without the theory behind it, practice looses a lot of value and depth and is easily misunderstood. Without the practice, no theory can really take effect and looses its function.
This is why I have included plenty of content about the philosophy of yoga. You will learn about its history and meaning and understand its most important texts - the Yoga Sutras and the Bhagavad Gita.
CHAKRA JOURNEYS AND DEEP RELAXATION
Meditation is a crucial part of any true Yoga practice. But simply to sit and try to calm the mind often does not work. We have to prepare the mind and the body first. Aside from our Asanas (which prepare the body), and our Breathing Practices (which prepare the mind by strengthening the nervous system), we will approach the world of our unconscious mind through guided journeys and deep relaxation practices. At the same time, you will work with the themes of each individual chakra, which, in the end, will give you a holistic and tangible tool for healing
FOR YOUR OWN BENEFIT
With a good understanding of the philosophy and a regular and well rounded practice at home you will soon feel the benefits of not only feeling great in your body, but also in your mind.
Soon, you will reap the benefits of strengthening and mobilising your body, stabilising your emotions, increasing energy and concentration and improving your mood and the quality of your sleep.
