Anja

Anja is director of Jivamukti Yoga Berlin (http://www.jivamuktiberlin.de) and an Advanced Certified Jivamukti Yoga teacher.
She discovered her passion for Jivamukti Yoga in 2000 while living in New York during a law internship. Back then, she also met her teachers Sharon Gannon and David Life for the first time. Anja has been practicing yoga with teachers of various yoga styles and traveled the world to do so. But in her heart, Anja knew right after her first Jivamukti class, where she belongs.
Living as a Yogi means for Anja to try to balance up the disequilibrium between herself as part of human civilization and the world as a whole. In her classes, Anja strives to bring emphasis to the yogic tenet that none of our doings, whether they remain thoughts or are actually carried out, are without impact to our surroundings. In which direction the world turns, is in the hands of each single one of us.
The love to her life, to all beings and to this world as a whole motivate Anja to teach yoga. The path of yoga gives every single one of us the chance to grapple with our inner self and to find the harmony within us that we are longing for.


Description

Class description: A satsangha, literally, a community connected (angha) by Truth (sat) is best cultivated through the practice of Jivamukti Yoga's Five Tenets: Scripture, Ahimsa, Meditation, Nada Yoga and Bhakti. It's not enough to practice Tenet in isolation, or just personally. It's when we come together and institute the Tenets as a community that their true transformative power is revealed. Please join Patrick Broome,Cat Alip-Douglas, Antje (Amba), anja.kuehnel Anna Ferguson, Giselle Mari, Ganesh Das and Liz Roberts for a panel discussion and Q&A focused on actual "what works" case studies from existing Jivamukti Yoga communities!
