We are Rebecca and Sara - sisters born 20 months apart in Copenhagen, Denmark, with Danish, French and German grandparents. We grew up in Denmark, did our studies in the UK and went on to live away from home in Brooklyn, NY and Berlin, Germany. I also have a BA in music and have worked as a musician, singer and composer for 20 years. After 8 years in Brooklyn, I recently moved back to Copenhagen, where I live with my husband, two teenage daughters and the guinea pigs Sonny and Henning. I love all kinds of movement and besides yoga I’ve been swimming, dancing, jogging, working out, playing basketball and practising pilates. Rebecca: I’m a clinical psychologist and cognitive-behavioural therapist with my own private practice in Berlin. I’ve been working with mindfulness and self-compassion approaches for years. I was 14 when my grandmother signed me up for a year of yoga classes and I have been practising yoga since then – although I still can’t do a head stand nor a split. I live in Berlin with my husband and our three kids. I’m an enthusiatic albeit complete beginner at gardening – hiding amongst my corn, green beans and tomato plants gives me stolen moments of peace and quiet.
