About Us

I am a Coach, Yoga teacher, Management trainer, Feminist, Performer

Hi, I'm Anna

If I were to describe myself in a single word, it would be “curiosity.” It’s the driving force that has propelled me through a life filled with ever-changing roles and settings. From a young age, I felt a relentless dissatisfaction with the status quo. While some settled into jobs and relationships that felt like suffocating coffins, I was convinced that there must be more to life.

During my school years, I eagerly filled my schedule with dancing and multiple jobs, all in pursuit of two goals: saving money for travel and attaining my independence. The moment I graduated, I embarked on a journey to Australia as an Au Pair, responsible for caring for three precious children. In that role, I became more than just a caregiver; I became a second mother to them. It was a pivotal moment that reinforced my unwavering desire to prioritize time with family and loved ones.

Yet, despite this revelation, I chose to study International Business while simultaneously undertaking a demanding Management Trainee program within a multinational organization. My restlessness persisted, but it was during a semester in Mexico that everything changed. I attended my first yoga class on campus, and it felt like discovering a hidden treasure. The magic of awareness, guided by the rhythm of breath and movement, captivated me entirely. I was hooked, and yoga soon became my path to radical honesty, fearlessness, and shamelessness. I made the bold decision to relocate to Berlin, where I worked in dynamic teams and began teaching yoga after my first teacher training. Quickly, my schedule became a mosaic of classes, workshops, and trainings. While my corporate job drained my energy, my yoga classes breathed life into people’s souls. It didn’t take long for me to make a life-altering choice. I decided that purpose was worth more than a stable job contract, that joy and fulfillment trumped efficiency and productivity.
As time went on, I uncovered the world of Social Entrepreneurship during my travels. I met remarkable individuals who seamlessly integrated their purpose with their businesses, creating work environments that inspired growth in others. This discovery led me to focus on a dual mission: teaching individuals to align with their purpose and assisting organizations in building purpose-driven teams. I wholeheartedly believe that the key to a fulfilling life lies in cultivating meaningful relationships—with oneself, with work, and with those around us. I don’t differentiate between relationships with colleagues, friends, family members, or lovers; each one serves as a mirror, reflecting our core patterns, beliefs, and thought processes. And each one can enrich our lives in a multitude of ways.

My coaching approach delves deep into the body’s wisdom and explores family and social dynamics as mirrors of our upbringing, patterns, and beliefs. I love to combine ancient eastern wisdom with contemporary findings of neuroscience. My strength lies in creating a safe, inviting space for exploration, often sprinkled with humor to infuse a sense of lightness into the heaviness of life. I’ve set out on a mission to bridge the gap between the corporate and mindfulness worlds, ensuring that people don’t feel compelled to escape to become yoga teachers and that yoga isn’t merely an escape from an unfulfilled life.
As a Yoga teacher, my style is heavily influenced by my background in dance. I emphasize flowing, dynamic movements that connect body, mind, and emotions.

Join me on a transformative journey! Together, we will nurture meaningful relationships, celebrate diversity, and unlock the boundless wellspring of happiness within. Our collective efforts will reshape workplaces and lives, fostering authentic connections and communities built on trust, support, and an unquenchable spirit of inspiration.

What I wanted to become when I was a kid..

Flight attendant – or actress! I always dreamed of traveling the world and working in very diverse settings with many different people. My dream kind of became true when I got the role as flight attendant in the first musical production of my performance group.
