Janina

Über mich

Janina started practising Ashtanga yoga in Edinburgh in 2011. In 2016 she completed her first Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga teacher training, with a strong focus on alignment as taught in the Iyengar tradition in India. Following her move to Berlin in 2017, Janina initially continued to focus on and deepen her own practice, while working as a primary and secondary school teacher. In 2023, she completed an apprenticeship with Jivamukti and Ashtanga teacher Sandra Gerhard at Practice Yoga Berlin and has been teaching regular Ashtanga Vinyasa classes since then. Whilst Janina’s practice has always been rooted in the Ashtanga Vinyasa tradition, she has explored and integrated different elements from a range of yoga traditions over the years and this traditionally-grounded yet curious and non-dogmatic approach is reflected in her classes and dynamic sequences. She views and emphasises practice as a tool for observation of body and mind and aims to provide the space for presence, meditation and release in and through movement in her classes.
