What to expect

6-day intensive course

In connection with Yin Yoga, we dedicate ourselves to the topics of meditation, chakras, meridians and fascia, but also to the element theory from TCM in theory and practice.

You will learn how to incorporate mental, energetic, and philosophical content into your sequence alongside physical topics, weaving them into your entire teaching, and thus creating and teaching more in-depth units with a variety of topics.

A special focus is on thematic sequencing – you will learn how to structure a Yin Yoga session not only physically, but also in terms of content: with a common thread that runs from the opening to the final meditation.

You will learn how to use props effectively, provide individual support to participants, and address different physical needs – safely, attentively, and competently. Contraindications and safe instruction are integral parts of the training.

Furthermore, we will focus on the voice as a teaching tool: tempo, pauses, modulation, and language – all of these influence how a Yin Yoga session is experienced. You will learn to use your voice consciously and effectively.

Focus: Body, mind, energy, methodology & didactics, meditation & relaxation and thematic variations for philosophical-spiritual depth as well as the handling and use of the voice.

What to expect

3-day intensive course

We dedicate ourselves to the teachings of Yoga Nidra, based on the traditional approaches of Swami Satyananda Saraswati as well as modern adaptations and extended techniques.

You will learn the scientific foundations – accompanied by sound theory about the autonomic nervous system, states of consciousness, and neurophysiological brain functions during deep relaxation. In this way, we combine ancient wisdom with modern science.

You will gain confidence in creating and leading Yoga Nidra sessions and learn how to adapt them to different target groups and needs. The voice as an instrument – ​​with conscious tempo, rhythm, and modulation – is also an integral part of the training.

Furthermore, you will discover the effect of visualizations and inner images, as well as the art of Sankalpa and the difference to conventional affirmations.

Between the theoretical units, we regularly delve into practical application - this way you integrate the knowledge through your own profound experiences.

Focus: Mind and consciousness, methodology & didactics, voice, affirmations and visualizations - as well as plenty of Yoga Nidra practice.

✨ A Mala for the Soul – Your Pre-Christmas Mala Workshop ✨

What could be better than spending this special time together with like-minded people, in a cozy atmosphere, creating something truly personal with your own hands?

The pre-Christmas season invites us to look inward a little, to find peace and to consciously take time for what nourishes us and connects us.

When the days grow shorter, the world outside seems a little quieter, and the first lights illuminate the darkness, a very special time of year begins. ✨

Make a little wish... You don't want to buy a mala, but would rather make your very own personal mala in a group?

Then you've come to the right place. A mala is a great gift for yourself or a very nice gift for friends or your partner.

Would you like to participate in the MALA WORKSHOP and wish for this workshop as a gift voucher for Christmas, your birthday, passing your yoga teacher exam, or just because?

My MALA workshop proceeds as follows:

Before the workshop, I will call you to choose the gemstones, knotting silk, guru bead, and tassel for your mala. You can either choose...

your birthstone, or you choose the gemstones according to their healing properties, or simply according to your personal taste.

At the beginning of the workshop, I will hand out all the materials to you. We will then practice tying tight knots right next to the bead for about 20 minutes.

Next, you lay out the order of your gemstones or wooden beads on a bead board, and I will show you how to make your own tassel.

Then you'll make your own mala. At the end, you'll receive a fabric bag in which to store your mala. A paper tag is attached to the

I will also provide you with information about the gemstones and their respective meanings and effects that were used in your MALA.

While we knot the malas, I will tell you about the history and tradition of malas as Buddhist prayer beads, meditation accessories and jewelry, and we will recite.

A suitable mantra will be chosen. At the end of the workshop, you will consecrate your mala with a mantra of your choice and then energetically cleanse it.

The MALA workshop takes place with a minimum of eight and a maximum of fourteen people.

It lasts approximately 6 hours and costs you: €128 (regular price) if you register from November 1st, 2026.

I would then purchase them for you. Please expect additional material costs of approximately €30 to €80 (I will inform you of these in advance).
