Hi, I’m Anya! I run Yoga in English Berlin.

Why the simple name? Well, I started one of the first ever English-language classes in Berlin back in 2009. So that’s what I wrote on the flyers ;) and the name stuck. I’ve been teaching here ever since.

I love the aliveness that yoga re-awakens in me; its ability time and time again to bring me back home to myself. Back to what feels essential. In both its beautiful teachings and on-the-mat āsana, I love the reminder that yoga seems to give me that maybe things are ok after all…

I teach the whole path of Yoga and integrate its life-enhancing wisdom teachings into āsana (movement) and meditation. Over the past 15 years I’ve taught internationally as a guest teacher in Bali, Lombok, the UK and Thailand and I regularly travel to India to study Vedānta and Sanskrit with esteemed teachers. As the grateful student of many great teachers, I love to pass on this wisdom that I feel so fortunate to have received, and my aim is to do so in an engaging and relatable way that stays relevant to our modern-day lives.

The style of yoga I teach is meditative flow with a focus on embodied presence, breath & awareness.

You’ll find a friendly, pressure-free, down-to-earth whilst meaningful approach in my classes. All levels of experience are welcome and you’re always free (encouraged!) to rest and show up however you’re feeling. There’s no way you need to look, dress or be.

I’d say my classes are simple & powerful, with clear guidance and inspiration from yogic philosophy as well as plenty of valuable quiet moments for your own experience of yoga to unfold.

I run teacher trainings, retreats, courses on meditation & yoga philosophy, private and workplace classes as well as mentorships for teachers.

Hope to see you for a class or retreat - meet me by trying a class in my video library, exploring the site or writing to say hi
