About SophieI met Sophie during Teachers Training at Yoga and Meditation Center. I’m amazed with her discipline and passion about yoga. When she is in front of the group she gives such a detailed explanation of the postures that makes it easy not only to perform, but also to feel. Sophie has a very clear, precise and convincing way to express about benefits of yoga. She is an easy going person, full of energy and optimism. She brings to her classes her joy of life. Her classes are fun and informative. She makes you feel at ease during the class and that is a feeling you can take with you throughout the day. Sophie is a perfect example of how a real passion can not be stopped by any circumstance. Yana Kazbekova - 500 E-RYT - San Diego |
BIO: |
Sophie’s journey started in Germany in 1997 when she entered a Yoga class while barely speaking German. She discovered Yoga guided by her heart. Her teacher introduced her also to the principle of Ayurveda: “Know yourself to adjust lifestyle and diet with the seasons.”
In 2004, shortly after moving to United States, She decided to become a Yoga teacher. She is registered with Yoga Alliance at E-RYT-500 level. On her journey to learn the yogic principles, Sophie discovered that Ayurveda emphasizes the connection with Mother Earth, whereas Yoga emphasizes the connection with the Divine. From this realization, Sophie included both practices into her life to optimize health and Wellbeing. She also gained joy and contentment. She turned toward Vedic healing to combine Ayurveda with her teaching of Yoga. Through this process, she learned how to adjust Yoga according to each person’s needs. In addition Sophie is a certified Laughter Yoga leader and Grief Yoga® Teacher. Health is physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. These two last training gave her tools to offer a unique workshop "Yoga For Emotional Liberation" . |
