Hiya! I'm Hanna
I was born on an island.
Ok, that island was Australia, which seems far less cool. ​
​
Right now you can find me in Berlin, living with my high-school-sweetheart husband, and our old dog, Felix.
I took my first yoga class around the same time the Internet became a thing, and I was immediately in love. With the internet. My love for yoga took a bit more time.
No! That’s a fib, I loved yoga immediately, but didn’t commit to a regular practice until 2015.
The greatest gift I’ve received from yoga is the ability to appreciate my body as a vessel to do loads of awesome stuff. When I was a teenager, I developed an eating disorder and yoga was integral to my recovery.
(I'm writing a book about it).
I practice what I preach and encourage true authenticity both on and off the mat.
I am a Disney-freak, a vegetarian, a Barbie girl, and a moon-lover who only wears stretchy pants.
Why Yoga?
My teaching style can be summed up in three Nirvana songs;
Come As You Are,
Smells Like Team Spirit (ok, I changed that one a bit),
and Jesus Doesn’t Want Me for a Sunbeam.
​
And that third one basically sums up feelings I had for a long time about not being ‘yogi enough’ to become a yoga teacher, because I didn’t fit the mould I believed was required to help people uncover the incredible relationship between body and breath, and the profound learnings of this philosophical and spiritual practice.
But the deeper I dove into yoga, I realised the mould doesn’t exist.
I can be my own kind of sunbeam – and I am.
​
The world is a greater place because yoga exists in it, and I am forever humbled and grateful that my spirit found yoga.
