Pauline's Yoga journey
Pauline is coming from a background of over ten years of (competitive and later professional) dancing.
At the age of 12, Pauline first got introduced to the practice of Yoga.
Pauline self-studies a lot in the fields of mental and physical health, meditation, Yoga, spirituality, and personal development. She got introduced to many of these subjects by her mother from an early age on.
2017/2018 Pauline attended two different Yoga teacher trainings in Thailand.
A whole new world of holistic philosophy, profound resources, and healing methods was opened up to her. She was introduced to a world of information and practice which she had been craving for a long time.
She has been teaching and assisting Vinyasa and AcroYoga in a standard class setting as well as in Yoga teacher trainings and workshops since then. Pauline has experience in teaching in German and English coming from a background of teaching in countries like Thailand, Germany, USA (Hawaii, California), Australia and Denmark.
Pauline's personal practice
Pauline believes:
Moving the body is celebrating its abilities.
Her personal practice is a combination of high-intensity sports (functional training in the gym), endurance exercises (bicycling, hiking, swimming, running) body controlling/mindful movement practices (dance, Yoga) AND everything else that brings her joy (surfing, skating, ACROYoga, walks in nature etc.)
For Pauline movement is medicine. She tries to move her body every day always depending on what the body feels like doing. She believes that it is essential to train the body in a wide variety of qualities, intensities, and movements to enable the mind and body to stay flexible and easily adaptable for change.
She incorporates this philosophy into her Yoga classes and tries to present as much variety and challenge to the students’ minds and bodies as possible in the frame of their levels.
Pauline practices some kind of Yoga, meditation, or mindful practice daily to connect with herself and her creative flow.
Pauline's Yoga teaching
mostly focuses on a (slow) vinyasa flow with a balanced focus between the importance of physical alignment and strengthening as well as moving energy, activating the chakras and nadis and breaking down blockages in all levels of the body(physical - emotional - energetical).
In her AcroYoga classes a lot of fun, strength, stability and flexibility training can be found. She also focuses on the beauty of trust and connecting with a partner during AcroYoga.
