Hi, my name is Emily and I live in Munich, Germany.
To me, Yoga is a 24/7 lifestyle practice of self-awareness, authenticity, and mindfulness. I teach classes that are dynamic and heartfelt, incorporating the timeless traditions of Hatha Yoga, while weaving in modern elements and practical western-world applications. I honor the integrity of the sacred science, while still acknowledging the demands and stresses of the 21st century.
I was born and raised in the US, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle was always important to me and my family. Our family vacations involved hiking and camping. I backpacked alone for a year throughout SE Asia, India, Nepal, and South America. Some of my most memorable work experiences include: being a backpacking guide in the Rocky Mountains for inner-city teenage girls, Public Health educator in a rural village in Nicaragua, an educator in a childrens’ edible garden, cooking natural home-cooked meals for a NYC public school, and sweeping the floors of a Yoga ashram in India.
Theory before practice was always important to me, which is why I received my Master's in Public Health in NYC with a focus in Community Health Education. My aim is to promote health and wellness through Yoga, Nutrition Education, and improved healthy lifestyles. I have worked with various non-profit organizations and have dedicated my life-work to serving people and promoting health.
I am experiencing right beside you this adventure we call life, and discovering moment to moment what it means to be human. In the words of the Bhagavad Gita: 'Yoga is the journey of the self, through the self, to the self.' Let's enjoy this wild ride together...one breath at a time.
I offer private and small-group Yoga classes for adults individually tailored to your specific needs and goals. I also offer nutritional counseling, or a combo of Yoga & Nutrition. Workplace Yoga is also a passion of mine, as I have learned first-hand living in NYC the pressure that a 9-5 desk job can put on our bodies, mind, and spirit. I also have an interest working with children and families, and can offer events such as: classroom visits (cooking workshops, Yoga), Yoga birthday parties, and Yoga classes for children or families. Let’s have a free 30-minute consultation to figure about the program and package best for you, your child, your team, or your family.
I also offer lectures and workshops at studios, community centers, corporate training events, etc. on various topics including: Mindfulness Meditation, Yoga in the Workplace, Yoga as Lifestyle, Holistic Nutrition, and other special topics.
