Who am I?

“Johanna is a passionate lover of life, who finds joy in almost every moment. Interesting combination of a bit dry engineer and a yoga teacher with good sense of humor. Johanna is a funny teacher, who brings the joy into the yoga shala. ”

​

I have been fascinated about yoga my whole life. I ended up to my first yoga class in 2007 and that was it. I was hooked. My mother tried to get me to start yoga my whole childhood, but I found the shalas and classes offered in 90's scary and I thought I should change myself completely just to enter the place. This is why I want to emphasize that everyone can enter my class as they are and be their own unique beautiful selves. Yoga is for everyBODY. 

​

I have a long background of doing sports, mostly dancing and athletics, and it made me to proceed yoga first only as a physical exercise. However slowly and surely I found the completeness of yoga and it became a way of life. Nowadays it is a way to look and understand the world and an important tool for my spiritual growth and awareness.

​

I am ERYT200 certified yoga teacher, aerial yoga teacher and a player of traditional ritual drum. I am also a Hima Wisdom Practitioner and those learnings I love to share in my classes. I may also spice up my classes with reiki energy, thai-yoga massage, essential oils and with the learnings from many other meditation and anatomy trainings I have attended after my graduation. 

​

My goal is to bring a relaxed and joyful atmosphere to my classes and I aim that everyone has a smile on their face when leaving. I encourage my clients gently but firmly outside their comfort zones. Gentle and empathetic listening of ones mind and body is important in my classes. I have also a Master's degree on Environmental Engineering so you may ask recycling tips from me as well. 

I hope we get to meet on a mat together!
