Daria is a champion of non-linear career paths. Before honing in on holistic yoga therapy during the last 5 years, she wore many hats: that of an architect, a set designer, assistant to the choreographer, and performer, as well as supervisor in an after-school program. More recently, she has taught at Lotus Yoga Studio for 3 years and Yoga am Park for 2, both located in Berlin.
Her ability to feel the challenges and needs of professionals working at desk, engaged in office reality blended with a deep understanding of a human physicality acquired through her dance studies make her a skilled and empathic yoga trainer.
During Daria’s extensive travels throughout the world in recent years, she explored a range of healing modalities, such as Thai and Esalen massage and Gestalt awareness practice. She has now gracefully integrated these complementary skillsets into her holistic yoga therapy sessions.
Her classes provide students with necessary tools to establish a grounding physical practice while expanding their self-awareness. Daria’s gentle, attentive and structured approach make her classes accessible for people with different needs and health conditions. She is also committed to bringing yoga practice to non-traditional environments and underserved populations.
In being of service as a yoga therapist Daria helps people redefine their relationships to their bodies and minds and helps them to build friendlier body-mind connections. This in turn brings participants a greater sense of ease and freedom.
