About the training.

Anatomy, Philosophy & Asana Labs

During her medical studies Leni stumbled upon Ashtanga Yoga and after her first Mysore class she was hooked! For the first time she experienced herself at peace. She then fully immersed herself in the practice and studies of yoga and has since become a 500h Yoga Alliance accredited teacher. She has gone well beyond the 500h of study.

Along the way she has had the opportunity to study with and draw inspiration from teachers such as Tim Feldmann, Kino Macgregor, Richard Freeman, Mary Taylor, David Swenson, Ajay Tokas and many more. She is a long-term student of Dr. Ronald Steiner. In the past few years, she has been teaching in different settings and has been a part of several teacher trainings. Being an adamant and dedicated practitioner of first and second series, she combines her knowledge about the human body with practical experience. Leni enjoys sharing what she has learned so far with anyone who is sincerely interested in exploring their individual practice from a different perspective.

Asana Labs & Pranayama

Danielle is a Licensed Massage Therapist (USA), experienced Yoga Teacher, and Reiki Master currently living and working in Bonn, Germany.

​Yoga and meditation became a part of Danielle’s practice in early adulthood to help manage stress and connect to her physical body in a positive way.

Achieving her 200H certification in 2015 and 300H in 2021, Danielle has been a senior teacher at The Vinyasa People ever since. With 1000s of hours of teaching practice, Danielle brings a wealth of practical experience in teaching yoga classes.

Yin Yoga & Yoga Buisiness

Since Fall 2020 Nina is a certified 200H Vinyasa Pranayama Teacher and holds a L2 degree in Yin Yoga. She is a dedicated Yin Yoga and meditation student, practicing with Bernie Clark and Sylvia Stuck on a regular basis. She recently took a Pre- and Postnatal - as well as a Meditation training to expand her knowledge. As she experienced the positive effects of Yoga, Meditation, Myofascial Release and Breath work as tools of stress reduction (physically and mentally) first hand, it is Nina’s wish to pass along those benefits to her students.

Currently Nina teaches Yin Yoga and Postnatal Yoga on a weekly basis.

As Nina loves teaching and she is used to helping others through the jungle of Germany’s bureaucracy she picked up teaching the Business Module of the 200h TTC in 2021.
