I was born in 1953, married, mother of 4 daughters, training and experience in dance, gymnastics, spiritual therapy. 4-year Hatha-Yoga teacher training with Leopoldo Chariarse, Gesellschaft für Geisteswissenschaftliche Fortbildung (GGF) in Düsseldorf, recognized by the Berufsverband der Deutschen Yogalehrer (BDY) and the European Yoga Union (EYU). Further training in Yin-Yoga Stefanie Arend (certified in the method according to Paul Grilley). Training in Thai Yoga Massage with Julia and Pascal Weis (in the tradition of Krishnataki). I myself would not like to miss yoga anymore, as it has accompanied and supported me in difficult life situations and also strengthened me through the yoga philosophy.
In my yoga classes I also want to teach the participants to meet themselves with love and mindfulness, to find the inner place of stillness and to draw new strength from it to meet everyday situations with calmness, serenity and peace.
In 2005 and 2006 I personally completed the training and certification in hormonal yoga therapy (hormone yoga) with Dinah Rodrigues and since then I have been giving regular hormone yoga seminars for women and also men. It gives me great pleasure to accompany and support other women and men with hormonal yoga in their hormonal problems. In my workshops there were also some participants who wanted to have children and became pregnant with hormone yoga..
With the exercise series itself, I have been able to wonderfully alleviate my menopausal symptoms and feel much more energetic in life as a result. I practice this series daily for myself and since 2012 I have created a working group for hormonyoga teachers, which takes place once a year, where we can exchange ideas, practice the series and also invite qualified speakers around the topic of natural hormones and menopause.
