Ashtanga Yoga in Königstein and online
Ashtanga Yoga is a dynamic and powerful form of Hatha Yoga. Postures (in Sanskrit: Āsana), which are precisely coordinated with the breathing, are linked to one another in a defined sequence in a flowlike fashion. Well-being and physical performance quickly improve.
Private classes either on-site or online in addition to Mysore classes on-site are best suited as a starting point for beginners, practitioners from other yoga styles or after a longer break from yoga.
You can download the current Mysore programme here.
Under the heading of Plus, I also offer
other elements of yoga (programme here), specifically:
- pranayama (special breathing techniques)
- meditation
- yoga philosophy, chanting and Sanskrit
as well as on-site and online assistance in coping with challenges in the personal and the professional arena, using:
- coaching and energy work
- family and systemic constellations (currently only in an individual setting).

Extracts from my blog

„Karma“ by Johannes Bronkhorst (book review)
In Sanskrit, „karma“ originally means just „action“. Since about 2.500 years it is understood in a much larger scale, as the law of cause and effect. According to this law, actions in this life (and in former lives) have an immediate effect on this...
