ME
"It’s a life long journey."
Hello, my name is Emma.
I come from a small village in northern Sweden where there are more wild animals than people. I discovered my passion for movement and music early on, which led me first to study contemporary dance in southern Sweden and then to New York for further dance training. I then spent three years studying and working as a professional dancer in Munich and now I live and work in Lucerne.
I was introduced to yoga in 2006 through my training as a professional dancer. At first, I practiced Yoga simply to strengthen my body and keep it healthy as a counterbalance to dance training. Now, 15 years later, yoga is with me every day. It helps me to stay fit and to understand my body better. More importantly, yoga has become a tool to help me deal with different situations and challenges in life.
I love to share my knowledge with others and to see how the people I work with grow and develop on a daily basis. I love movement and the effect it has on our bodies. For me, movement, be it dance, yoga or sport, always has a healing effect.
There is no age limit to learning. "It's a life-long journey.“

I have been practicing yoga with Emma two or three times a week for the last three years, mostly in person, but also on-line during lockdown. I started working with her when I was 66 and my body is much more toned and flexible than it was when we began - it is never too late to start! She has a terrific knowledge of anatomy, informed by her education in both yoga and dance, and working with her is an absolute pleasure.

Yoga mit Emma ist Körper- und Kopf-Yoga! Ihre professionellen, auf uns zugeschnittenen Lektionen lösen intensive Emotionen aus. Gerade zu Ende der Einheit – zu Savasana – hab ich schon gelitten, gelacht, geweint (!), war mal in mich gekehrt, mal total lustig. Aber meist fühle ich mich einfach sehr entspannt, fliessend, frisch, mutig und kraftvoll! Yoga mit Emma jeweils am Freitag führt mich wunderbar in den Entspannungsprozess zum Wochenende!

Eine Yogastunde mit Emma füllt den Energie-Akku meines Körpers auf. Es ist unglaublich, wie sie intuitiv auf die einzelnen Bedürfnisse eingehen kann. Ihre Stunden sind dynamisch, voller Leichtigkeit und Rhythmus, sie machen Freude, lassen dich schwitzen, sind mal anspruchsvoll und kraftvoll, aber fördern auch sanft das Loslassen. Die Freude am Unterrichten und Emmas Yoga-Leidenschaft füllt den ganzen Raum und Emma gibt weiter, was sie selber lebt. Authentischer und bezaubernder geht nicht!

Yoga mit Emma heisst ankommen, abschalten, auftanken. Besser gehts nicht.

Wir haben für unser jährliches, globales Strategiemeeting, welches dieses Jahr das erste Mal rein virtuell stattgefunden hat, eine Sequenz Yoga vor dem Start des Meetings organisiert. Emma hat die Yoga Sessions sehr angenehm und abwechslungsreich gestaltet und es war auch für Yoga-Anfänger einfach die Uebungen mitzumachen. Dank dem Yoga konnten wir unser Meeting entspannt und fokussiert angehen. Ich kann Emma als Yoga-Trainerin nur empfehlen und wir würden Emma wieder für eine nächste Yoga Session vor einem Meeting wählen.

Emma ist eine fantastische Yogalehrerin!
Man spürt im Unterricht ihre langjährige Expertise sofort. Durch ihre fröhlich unkomplizierte, aber doch nachhaltige fordernde Art, schafft sie es immer wieder, dass man sich an seine eigenen Grenzen bringt und nach jeder Stunde bereichert und gestärkt nach Hause geht.
Für mich ist Emma eine der besten Yogalehrerinnen, bei der ich unterricht erfahren durfte... und ich mache schon seit 30 Jahren Yoga.
