Katrin Elsen

I was born in Luxembourg 1985. At the age of sixteen, I experienced Yoga and Meditation for the first time. After having finished my studies in art, I decided to follow my passion in yoga and massage therapy. Through various trainings and continuous self-study, I discovered the philosophy of Yoga, and meditation. My first main inspiration was during my studies in Bonn, where I took classes with the teacher Cornelius Woelke, for three years every week. I learned much about the philosophy of yoga and could feel the positive effect of the asanas in my body and mind. After my studies, I did a teacher training at the `Sanctuary`in Thailand, with the teacher Randal O’Leary, Ana Falconi and Ushma Abella. I learned about Hatha Yoga, the main aspects of body movement, anatomy and Ayurveda, about the power of Yoga Nidra and about the chakras.
In my classes I`m cultivating a practice of strong and flexible postures and breathwork.
My teaching style is playful and personal, I adapt the level to the group and try to inspire people to live healthy and enjoy a practice increasing the energy and joy. I teach Hatha Yoga with a focus on the breathwork `Pranayama`. Each movement will follow your breath.
Yoga is much more than working out or meditating. It is about developing your personality, as this is the foundation of our perception and our actions.
