Bio
My name is Irmi and I am originally from Germany but live in Florida for over twenty years!
When I found yoga I was already forty four years old! Not exactly a spring chicken anymore!
After two years of practice I had an epiphany! I slipped and fell in my driveway on a rainy day.
My body instinctively fell backwards into kind of a backbend, like a wheel, landing with one hand and one foot on the ground.
My head and my spine never touched the wet cement!
I was blown away! I was unharmed! I knew in this moment that yoga was the reason for this little miracle! I said to myself: this stuff is working and everybody needs to know about it!
Right then and there I decided to become a yoga teacher!
I completed a 200 hr yoga teacher training and was certified in 2008. Ever since I passionately teach weekly yoga classes in my community.
I am trained in Hatha Yoga, re-balancing massage, meditation, herbal healing, Ayurveda, and the visual arts.
Travels to India, Africa and Europe have expanded my mind and touched my heart.
It shows me that behind every personality and belief system lives a human being with the same needs, desires and hopes for health, happiness and freedom.
Yoga makes it possible for me to connect with people on a human level regardless of nationality, walk of life, gender, race, sexual orientation, body type or age.
It is such a joy and honor for me to be able to share these ancient practices of healing with you!
