What is Yin yoga to you?
Yin to me is like the butterfly effect, a little gentle stillness in one part of your life can have a dramatic positive impact on another part of your life.
​
What is your story with Yoga?
Yoga helped me through a very difficult time in my life. It taught me how to breathe, mentally and physically, it revealed answers to questions I needed an answer to, it introduced me to some amazing people who inspired me to take a step forward, dive deeper, so I decided to become a yoga teacher to share with others how yoga can impact your life.
​
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve received?
“Tag aldrig sorgerne på forskud, så risikererndu bare at få dem to gange” - which in English means something along the lines of “Don’t worry in advance, that way you risk having to worry twice.

What influences your teaching?
I love to go a little ‘hippie-dippy-world-peace’ in my teaching, it makes sense, it makes you smile, it makes you melt a bit deeper in to your pose, it helps you connect, it gives a warm feeling in your stomach, and it makes you smile to strangers passing you by in the street when you re-enter the world outside the yoga studio.

What does your perfect Sunday look like?
My perfect Sunday involves a long walk with my dogs, yoga, running, brunch with my boyfriend, knitting, cooking, reading the paper, a little Billie Holiday and definitely some sort of tv.
