An interview we did in the summer of 2017 in Gothenburg, Sweden with our nice students Kathrin and Georg. Kathrin and Georg practice on average 4 times/week. I am always impressed and super happy to see beginners falling into what I call “the yoga magic”. As teachers it’s wonderful to watch people growing and learning […]
BLOG
From 30 to 31
There is so much to write about. This last year has been complete madness. So many ups and downs. Disappointments. Pain. Struggles. Not sure I will find the proper words or the proper narrative to describe all that. But I hope it inspires you, dear reader to live your life as authentically as […]
Happy tears. Complicated (simple) world
Oh man! Those moments when you come to realize certain things that feel so deep and true, that you even don’t know how to put them into words. Here I am in front of my snowy window on this 6th of March, 2018 day. It’s 2:25 pm in Göteborg. It seems these are the last […]
Should you feel intimidated of ashtanga ...
I heard this phrase so many times: “Ashtanga yoga is not for everyone. You need to be strong and flexible and bla bla bla” I remember when someone who did a 200hours Yoga Alliance TTC once said: “I did this TTC but soon realized I need to start teaching something else, because you cannot teach […]
The ashtanga yoga magic
Hello friends, I’ve been away for a while, as you might know already. I honestly needed some time off. I share so much of myself with the world, that from time to time, I need to pause. Away from the blog I had the time to invest more energy into other creative tasks and focus […]

2017 – Metamorphosis
2017 has been one very interesting year of my life. November 2016 I embarked upon the daily journey of Ashtanga. I knew it will take me to my darkest sides and teach me lessons,but I didn’t think it will all happen so fast. First one and a half month has been all happy and […]
A journey of yoga – Interview with Maria
We did this interview with Mariana right before she left Gothenburg for her next international adventure in Norway. I guess she’s reading this post right now from her cozy new home and maybe thinking about the good old times when we practiced together in Gothenburg. I am always sad when students leave, but happy […]
10 lessons of wisdom for everyday modern...
Hi there! Today I thought about putting in to words a few reminders that all of us need from time to time. We chase happiness in external sources most of the time, but deep in our heart we know real happiness always comes from inside. Just by changing our daily habits and letting go of […]
From victimhood to taking responsibility
I still remember that girl Mihaela from 1st grade. Taller than me, physically stronger than me. With that attitude of “I’m the best in the world.” I was shy and introvert. The good girl. The good grades. Playing by the rules. Not knowing how to stand up for myself. The class of 1994, […]
