Yoga with Nora @ Dharma Studios Kreuzberg

A self-proclaimed "professional gypsy", I am Swedish-American, born in Hawaii. After relocating numerous times (both within the USA and Europe), I am proud to call Berlin my home as of January 2019. Yoga has been present in my life since a young age, but I developed a consistent yoga practice about a decade ago as a response to my restless heart seeking something to ground it. In hopes of sharing the introspection and fortified sense of self my practice allowed me to manifest, I completed my 200-hr teacher training for Vinyasa Flow with Vidya Heisel in Spain in 2017. (I am currently completing my 300-hr training with Noah Maze in Berlin). I have also studied art at several schools. I believe art and yoga are deeply interconnected. Both involve a seeking / turning inwards into ourselves in attempt to resolve existentialist questions as well as challenge our ideas of who we are, what reality means and how we participate in the world around us. I have always been fascinated by movement of the human body (the female form in particular) and she has been the main focus and subject of my art. I am fascinated by the way our thoughts and state of mind influence the way we intuitively use our bodies to express ourselves, as well as how we can use conscious physical movements to influence our inner world. I mainly teach Vinyasa Flow but I also love to teach Alignment-based classes as well as Yin classes from time to time. I take what I do seriously but I try not to take myself too seriously. My classes are smooth yet powerful, playful yet deep and thought-provoking. My aim is for my students to become stronger and more flexible both in their bodies and minds. I hope to inspire and challenge my students and show them how to harness and sharpen the tools that they already possess to empower themselves and evolve as unique individuals in a bigger whole.
