Like so many others, my yoga journey started in India where I practiced my very first sun salutations in 2009. After moving to Berlin in 2010, I started practicing on a regular basis (mostly Vinyasa yoga); it didn't take long and I was totally hooked as I felt the positive effects of the practice not just on the body, but also on the mind.
After five years of steady practice and numerous retreats, I wanted to delve deeper and embarked on a Yoga Teacher Training in 2015. I started teaching Vinyasa Yoga classes at Vorspielverein SSL. eV./Schöneberg on regular basis almost immediately afterwards. Since 2018 I also teach Yoga for Seniors.

I took my very first yoga retreat in 2014 and was totally enthralled by the beauty that comes from practicing multiple times a day over an extended weekend or even longer. Ever since, I have participated in at least one retreat per year. Many of them took place in rural Brandenburg, organized by friends or […] Read more.
I am sharing this visual essay, which was circulated by the Fair Yoga Initiative in a spirit of solidarity. I am not directly affected by the current price dumping through which certain fitness apps seriously harm(ed) the Berlin Yoga scene, but many of my friends and colleagues are. The pandemic has only highlighted the terrible […] Read more.
I am very slowly adapting to the new world of online yoga. In the last couple of weeks I have practiced with videos from different teachers … and recorded a few videos myself that you can find here: https://yogawithjohanna.de/online-yoga/. I’ll upload more videos soon. Shoot me an email for the password, but note that my […] Read more.
I really miss practicing yoga with all of my lovely regulars + new friendly faces from time to time. Since I have no clue how much longer Corona will keep us apart, I have decided to bring some of things that are part of my yoga experience with you online. Next to moving, breathing and […] Read more.
Even before Corona hit my yogis and friends have frequently asked me about one topic: MATS. But with the closure of studios and the rise of home practice, reasons to own a mat instead of just using studio mats have significantly increased. This post (which is not sponsored in any way!!!) introduces some mats that […] Read more.
