Sonja is a 500-hour Yoga Alliance certified yoga instructor. Yoga found her many moons ago by complete accident, which is one of the best things ever that happened. Why because YOGA leads to happiness. She didn’t know anything about the Yoga health benefits – but she can confirm it works! The initial attraction of the physical challenge became secondary. More important became the mental aspect, breathing practice (pranayama), and finding stillness and ease. Over the years, she noticed slight improvements like being more patient and less critical or judgmental and consciously enjoying things that she took for granted before.
Intrigued by other teachers, curiosity took over one day, and she enrolled in her first 200-hour yoga teacher certification for Structure Yoga. While learning the ins and outs of Yoga, eventually teaching it, and developing her yoga routine, she meets more inspiring teachers who continue to guide and shape not only her practice but encourage her to keep learning even more about Yoga. Eventually, she enrolled at Juluka for her second degree, where she attained her accumulated 500-hour yoga teacher certification.
She loves teaching yoga for all levels so everybody can feel included. Therefore she offers plenty of variations. It is essential to her that her students connect to their bodies and learn to listen to their bodies so they can move with ease and lightness through their asanas while growing physically stronger and building flexibility.
