FOUNDER, NATUROPATH, NUTRITIONAL THERAPIST, LIFE GUIDE & SOUND HEALING PRACTITIONER

Being South African and Argentinian with Native American roots, I was always exposed to natural medicine and healers which triggered my passion and belief in the healing powers of nature.

As a child I was constantly ill, checking in and out of hospital at least 6 times a year. I had severe allergies, which triggered asthma attacks as well as reoccurring respiratory illnesses.

I developed a defined curiosity for human nature and strong intuitive capabilities, which led me to studying natural therapies. I studied at the College of Natural Medicine, the Healing College and the College of Sound Healing based in London.

Our environment has a huge impact on our health. From the soil our food is grown in, our water source, what we put into our body, the air we breathe, as well as the thoughts we carry. All of which contain toxins we aren’t even aware of. Treating a person holistically, taking into account their mind, body and soul is my primary focus.

I look forward to our journey of healing and empowering one another together.

My Story

HOMEOPATH, NATUROPATH & YOGA TEACHER

My goal as a practitioner is to help investigate the root cause(s) of someone's ill-health (physically, mentally, emotionally) and help guide them back to good health. For the past 12 years I have specialised in babies, children, eczema and allergies.

I have a passion for yoga, and as a teacher I would like to educate people on the traditional teachings of yoga which are disappearing in our modern society.

YOGA, BREATHWORK AND MEDITATION PRACTITIONER

I'm Anastassia, a mindful yoga, breathwork, and meditation practitioner from Estonia. My yoga journey began at the yoga teachers' course in India in 2017 and has unfolded steadily through personal practice, studies, and international teaching experiences. Fast forward to 2024, having navigated the fast-paced corporate world, I've discovered that consistent practice not only enhances overall well-being but also weaves success into your family, career, and daily life.

Naturally breath-focused, my classes aim to build a strong foundation through calm, steady practice. My toolkit is rich with teachings from Hatha & Vinyasa Yoga, Yin Yoga, Yoga Body Breath, and Vipassana. In 2021, I completed my first guided 10-day Vipassana silent meditation that has triggered an enormous transformation and my Baltic roots encourage me to take cold dips throughout the year. My goal is simple — I want to guide you in establishing a daily practice that fuels your confidence, boosts productivity, and nurtures a deep connection with your inner rhythm. I hope you take these practices beyond the mat and let them naturally blend into your daily life. Join me as we breathe, move, and embrace the magic together.

Certified as a 200-hour Hatha Yoga Teacher by Oceanic Yoga in India by Acharya Yogesh and Delphine Martin-Michaud amongst others. In 2021 deepening my personal breathwork practice I’ve completed Yoga Body Breathing Coaching program led by Lukas Rockwood (BCN/US). Most recently I’ve completed a 60-hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training certification from Sanapurna Yoga & Ayurveda in Zurich led by Poonam Stecher.

YOGA TEACHER & TRANSFORMATION COACH

After more than 10 years of my own personal healing journey through mental and physical illness, I have not only studied, but most importantly experienced how powerful the tools of traditional yoga and meditation are.

I struggled with relationships, severe depression, eating-disorders, chronic stress, anxiety and skin disease, to only name a few.

Today, I am healthy and thriving. I am living in complete harmony with myself and an incredible relationship I could have never even imagined. I create my reality day by day. All this, thanks to dedicated practicing of yoga and meditation which helped me understand my body and mind.

For you, I wish nothing less.

That is why I have dedicated my life to supporting others on their own way to true health and wellbeing in a world designed to do the opposite.

Since 2016, I have studied what traditional yoga really is, how to practice it correctly and use it to bring unity and contentment into our life.

In my classes you will learn, not just repeat. You will learn to choose the right practice for yourself, to breathe correctly, to heal your nervous system and to feel and experience your truest self.

Yoga is not fitness. Yoga is there to make us ‘attain what was unattainable before’, to find comfort in the discomfort and to move beyond our own limitations.

I strive to hold a welcoming and inclusive space for everyone, regardless of their yoga experience or physical ability.

YOGA TEACHER

From the very beginning, as long as I can remember my passion in life has always been surrounded by body movements. At the age of 12, I embarked on a journey through dance school, where the daily practice give me invaluable virtues - discipline, dedication, perseverance, and the art of managing stress. These qualities have been my guiding stars, illuminating my path throughout life.

My journey into the world of yoga was a serendipitous one by chance. unfolding while I was teaching dance in Shanghai. The daily practice of yoga resonated with the echoes of my dance school days, and my yoga mat quickly became a sacred space—a place to discover contentment, self-awareness, and the profound connection between mind and body.

But why do I choose to specialise in teaching full-body stretch classes, and what benefits lie within?

Well, as a mother of two precious little souls, I underwent a transformation in posture after their arrival. The selfless care I provided, day and night, led to the unwelcome companions of back pain, shoulder discomfort, and a stiff neck. My body was signalling a need for attention.

Drawing upon the wisdom of my dance practice and yoga journey, I crafted a unique full-body stretch class that extends its benefits to everyone. Whether you're a dedicated athlete, a diligent desk worker, or a superhero mom, this practice offers a plethora of advantages. It can elevate muscle function, provide respite to sore and stiff muscles, enhance blood flow within, widen your range of motion, alleviate stress, and act as a guardian against potential injuries, among other remarkable benefits.

CACAO CEREMONIES

As a trained nurse, people and health have always been very important to me, however in my mid-twenties, life "paralysed" me. I was forced to be still, calm down and to look more inward than outward. This pretty much turned everything upside down, and my house of cards collapsed again. My path was intense and beautiful at the same time. Although I was expected to be different, I could no longer go on with my previous life. So I followed the flow of life and especially my heart.

In the course of my life, through my own experiences and numerous illnesses, I started to think more holistically. I realised that emotional, physical and mental balance lead to a healthy life and being. This is why I like to combine different therapies such as yoga, breathing, meditation, sound, rituals to name a few.

As a kinesiologist, I still integrate teachings from Traditional Chinese Medicine including our energy system into all of my work.

I continue to educate myself and learn more through the journey of life and my experiences.

BREATHWORK TRAININGS - INSTITUTE OF TRANSFORMATIONAL ARTS & SACRED WAYS

Marc grew up with a love of music and a keen interest in spiritual studies. It was in his youth, when the musical soundscapes of his favourite artists created something like a safe haven for him — to an extent that he subsequently chose his first career to be the one of a music specialist at a record store. He started immersing himself in metaphysical and spiritual literature at a young age, as he always felt there was ‘something more’ than the three-dimensional reality humans are accustomed to. Recurring encounters in his adolescent years with Himalayan hermit Swami Yogeshwaranda Giri were fortunate occurrences that made him dive deeper in his quest for universal wisdom.

At the age of 32, he had a life-changing experience that intertwined the profound wisdom of master plants with the healing power of Sound. Since then, Marc has been devotedly involved in the field of metaphysics, facilitating and assisting cathartic, transformative Sound & Medicine ceremonies with genuine care and respect.

While residing in California, Marc actively participated in various workshops and trainings in the Human Potential Movement, particularly in Breathwork and Shamanism at the esteemed Esalen Institute in Big Sur.

Marc is a father, Breathwork Teacher, Transformational Guide, certified Sound Therapist, certified Esalen®Bodyworker, and the author of 'Sacred Ways – A guide to your essence' , set to be released in late 2023. https://www.sacredways.ch/

ONLINE SPIRITUAL COACHING & ENERGY PSYCHOLOGY PRACTITIONER

I was a high achiever in law and finance, but for years I struggled with low confidence, fear of speaking up, comparison paralysis and procrastination was my best friend. I judged myself harshly and never, ever cut myself any slack.

Sound familiar?

Then one day it all came crashing down. I started experiencing anxiety attacks and decided I had enough. I knew I needed to look within and heal in order to move forward. Following extensive training in numerous methodologies and interventions, I learned to become still and listen to the voice inside. I rediscovered gifts and abilities I buried in order to fit the mould of who I thought I was meant to be. I rediscovered me.

In 2015, I launched my own practice helping clients around the world launch new soul-aligned businesses, welcome in love and new relationships, fall in love with their bodies again, shed the shame of sexual trauma, heal familial relationships and release the toxic energy that has been holding them back for years.

My clients get to come home to themselves. To their innate wisdom, deep connectedness and power of intentional manifestation. They get to discover, through my Undoing Process, that the keys to what they seek lie inside.

If you’re reading this and it resonates with you, then perhaps now is your time.

Yes, your time is now.
