Yoga is and remains the path I have taken toward healing. For over 20 years I’ve tried and tested many techniques from ashtanga yoga to transcendental meditation, and the teachings of various gurus and various plant medicines.⁠⁠​

​

Like so many, my life has been about deconditioning from the traumatic influences of an unwell society. I’ve met so many inspiring and compassionate people along the way and discovered many gifts on the other side of healing. I can only feel gratitude for the fierce grace that has blessed his path.⁠⁠

The practices I share have helped me so much and I have complete faith in the methods that I practice and teach. I never teach anything I have not experienced for myself. I teach in the hope that what I share will in some small way contribute to helping the student find more peace within themselves, and thus contribute to making the world a better place.⁠⁠

Sandra is an experienced yoga student and certified yoga teacher since 2018.

She loves emphasizing on the internal perception and experience by combining different types of bodywork such as Critical Alignment yoga and

Somatics. 

Music is an important part of her life. Ever since her childhood, she loves to sing and play various instruments.

For her, yoga and singing mantras is a way to dive deeper into the Self. It is her way of slowing down, heal, letting go and trust. Taking the time, listening to her inner wisdom, surprise herself, be touched and connect to all there is.

Franzi began her journey to healing with her study of psychology and ultimately graduating as a counsellor in Vienna. Dismayed by the narrow parameters that defined psychological health in the Western system she travelled to India where she worked with orphaned children. There she met her teachers - yoga therapists Acharya Venkatesh and Acharya Hema, with whom she studied for three years. ⁠

Franzi has experienced a profound return to health through the kriyas and practices learned under their guidance. Vipassana has also been a great part of her practice.⁠ 

​

Her teaching is based on the therapeutic approach of traditional hatha yoga. ⁠

Meditation became my path at 18. I began in the discipline of Japanese Sōtō Zen, spending more than a decade in its rigor.

Over time, a desire for more flexibility and color led me to the Tibetan Kagyupa temples, where I continued silent shiné and learned the visualizations of Chenrezig, the Buddha of compassion. This journey carried me through many thresholds, including a profound desert initiation that dissolved long-held illusions.

When all false hopes had dissipated, Swami Nardanand Maharaj entered my life and initiated me into the Shaktipat tradition. That meeting—and the transmission of Shakti—was electrifying and radically different. After more than 30 years of practice, I share only what I have lived. Meditation is access to the inner medicine of mind, heart, and body.
