bernd windhofer | Yoga Teacher

BERND WINDHOFER


Bernd has been throwing himself wholeheartedly into the deep waters of daily, dedicated yoga practice since the very beginning of 2001. Coming originally from the performing arts in various guises, he finally allowed the stage life to fade and the yogic life to come into deeper focus. Being drawn, from an early age, toward seeing, understanding, and exploring life in its fullness and entirety, he works with the tools of asana, pranayama, meditation, and study in order to plumb the depths of experience. His aim as a teacher is always to give each student exactly what he or she needs at any given time, which has led him to learn as much as possible about different modalities of movement, meditation, and philosophical approaches. Bernd has an abiding passion for helping to ease the suffering of others, which has led him down the path of yoga for therapeutic uses as well as yoga as a path toward ultimate freedom and truth. Over the years, he has gathered tools in his own practice and in his teachings from Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, Hatha Yoga, the yogic approach to therapy, as well as a thorough and continuing education in philosophies of all shapes and sizes.

TESTIMONIALS

Yoga Student | Darla

I’ve been practicing yoga with Bernd for a long time now and he is always one of my top recommendations to anyone who’d like to know not only the physical practice, but the history, philosophy and all the reasons behind the yoga practice. His vast knowledge of traditional scripts gives him a unique ability to skilfully guide his students through practices like breathing and meditation. Not the least important to mention he has very clear and pleasant voice that puts students into relaxed, calm and harmonious state very fast.



Daria Kozhukhar

Yoga Student | Arlanna

During the peaceful warriors Yoga Teacher Training I obviously had to attend and learn about meditation: the way Bernd taught me through it, completely change my approach: no frustration, I was actually following a perfectly logic guided path to the stillness of my mind. For the first time I understood and felt what meditation is: how it works. It opened a complete new dimension, that I can explore and that, most of all, is making me growing on a daily base. I am finally meditating every day, not because “it’s good for stress” but because I enjoy feeling my mind still.



Arianna Bolzoni


Yoga student | Shannon

I thought I knew what meditation was before Bernd became my teacher. Turns out I didn’t know so much. Bernd has so much personal experience and wisdom with the practice of meditation. His teachings follow traditional linage which I deeply appreciate and find so much meaning from. As a teacher Bernd Is authentic and supportive, with his vast amount of knowledge I couldn’t think of anyone better to hold a meditation training course. I have learnt so much in the time he has been teaching me, I’m in the best place I’ve ever been in my life and I have no doubt that’s down to his guidance with my practice.



Shannon Lacey


Yoga student | Jesslca

Bernd is a wonderful and very professional teacher. He combines profound knowledge from different backgrounds only mentioning a few, his experience is reaching from the Zen Tradition, Buddhism, Yogic Meditation. He is teaching life and online excellent guided meditation techniques. The true value for me is, that Bernd only teaches, what he has experienced himself. And last but not least, Bernd is a wonderful empathetic, warm and humorous teacher. I am looking forward to all my Asana, Pranayama and Meditation classes with him.

Yoga student | Ruth tofler

Learning meditation with Bernd is a fascinating journey that has lead me into a deep exploration of mind, breath, and body. Bernd’s teaching is a layered, rich and joyful experience, always generous and with instruction that is both concise and fascinating. There is no ‘'one size fits all', and respecting our individual differences Bernd gives his students a range of tools that enable us to further explore each practice to find those that resonate. After class, I feel both deeply satisfied as well as curious, as I know there is another exploration to come in our next session.


Ruth Tofler-Riesel

Yoga student | Margot

In the four years that I’ve studied yoga with Bernd in class, retreat, and a yoga teacher training my practice continually expands into deeper and fantastic realms. It is abundantly clear to me the effort and skill he puts into his teaching, thoughtfully knitting together modern techniques with ancient yoga wisdom into relevant and useful language to the modern practitioner. I am certain that he is teaching from a place of personal experience and genuine interest for all his students to discover what yoga can be for them
