*** A PEEK INTO THE HEART OF SILVIA ***
My healing work began as a licensed Craniosacral Physiotherapist and certified Ta**ra and Ashtanga Yoga teacher in 1997. When I lived in Vienna I worked for over a decade at a Health and Dance Club and became an enthusiastic practitioner of all forms of Dance and Yoga. In 2002 I brought my deep love for embodied movement to the South of Spain. I have since t
hen worked with thousands of individual clients as well as held space for 25 years on the yoga and dancefloor. My strength is to guide group energy through an experience with the Divine, using rituals to build faith, a sense of interconnectedness and personal empowerment. I am here to help create sacred spaces to connect with oneself, each other and our beloved Earth.
“THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE ARE WILD AND FREE.”
Throughout my studies across the world, different cultures and Shamanic traditions inspired me towards a deep reverence for nature. In my Yoga classes I encourage you to follow the free pulsation of your breath, so your movement naturally expands and becomes less linear, but more explorative. All movement thrives on our openness and curiosity about what is possible. When practicing this during yoga, we will flow with more ease and spontaneity and empower our somatic intelligence. This refines our ability to sense and experience the less known aspects of ourself. While we experience deep physical sensations, improve our stamina and flexibility, exercise our agility and explosive power, we will mostly remember the pure pleasure of each movement in Yoga - as if we were dancing in freedom.
“THE MAGIC EACH UNIQUE BODY HOLDS.”
Our constantly changing circumstances of body, mind and heart require a compassionate teaching style which goes way beyond intelligent alignment. My yoga practice stimulates self inquiry and intuition. I see magic happening when we show up authentically to explore our uniqueness. When we tap into the wisdom of ancient memories, recalling desired emotional states in certain asanas, we consciously use the creative force of our limitless mind. A revolutionary approach to get out of the shape based yoga practice into the vast field of spirit. Through a series of significant and life threatening health challenges, my teaching evolved towards a more curious and receptive style. I discovered the creative healing power of my mind when confronted with cancer and a paralyzed leg. I am in awe that after I underwent a full hip replacement I regained total flexibility through yoga. I am confident that everything I experienced helps me to better guide you through any challenges you are facing.
“THE POWER OF RITUAL.”
Everywhere I go, I see a universal thirst for the sacred, for meaning, hope and purpose. Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going back to our roots is like coming home. In bringing back ancient rituals, we honor what gives us life, what feeds us in this existence as a spiritual and human being. Rituals invite us to tune in to our inner-guidance and to take action from a place of “in-spiration" rather than habit and our "to do" list. They evoke deep, heartfelt emotions, like gratitude, and help us to tune in to a high vibrational field of energy that is even more powerful if shared between many and over an extended period of time. To share these sacred moments with others during my retreats or in ceremonies is a powerful experience, builds a sense of community, of wonder and infinite respect. In the last decade I have worked with various indigenous traditions and have brought this inspiration into all that I am doing. With great respect and love I facilitate regular sacred traditional Cacao Ceremonies in the South of Spain. My inspirations
I am so grateful to my grandparents who were my first spiritual inspiration. I bow to all the dedicated teachers who crossed my path and the long lineage of shamans, mystics and yogis who kept these rich traditions alive. I acknowledge my deepest influences including:
