GIGI
I was born and raised in Berlin,Germany!
In 1986 i left Berlin and moved to New York City and lived there for about a year.
Then i traveled to San Francisco and from there to L.A where i fell in love with Beachvolleyball.
The burning passion,dedication and hard training paid off and i started playing for the USA national tour.
As a balance for this tough physical training i was searching for some relaxation techniques and in 1994 more or less through coincidence stumbled into my first yogaclass.
Even here i was fascinated!
Many stops later,such as India and Japan were i participated in several Workshops i realized not just do i want to Practice for myself but i want to share my knowledge and want to teach.
In 2004 i decided to do my first teacherstraining with Erich Schiffmann in L.A.
In 2005 i moved to greece and started teaching.
In 2007 i discovered the Ashtanga Yoga method and was hooked!
Through my experience with this particular yogastyle I wanted to inspire as many people as i can.
To deepen my own Practice i traveled to Mysore and Goa,India.
Back to Greece i decided in 2011 to do my teacherstraining in Ashtanga Yoga with Kristina Karatinou .
Accompanying my teaching i traveled between 2013-2018 to Berlin to do more teacherstrainings and Workshops with Andrea Lutz!
