"My practice of ashtanga vinyasa (2006-2012) contributed dynamic sequencing to my classes. I practice and teach yoga integrating flexibility/strength, will/surrender, and concentration/expansion. I perceive the organism as a whole and believe that an engaged physical practice can be transformative on all levels of the individual and beyond it."

Born in Hawaii, I am a Swedish-American yogi with a big heart and free spirit. Yoga asana and meditation have been an essential part of my life for 10 years. I have two 200-hr teacher training and one 300-hr YTT under my belt. My passion for powerful, dynamic, and focused yet smooth movement has existed since a young age (ie; dance, gymnastics, and synchronized swimming) but I felt these were lacking something deeper. I studied art for 8 years, where my interest in body movement manifested into artwork with expressive nudes as the focus. When I discovered yoga asana and philosophy, I realized what I had previously been missing and seeking. I love the physicality of yoga because it allows me to explore and expand my strength and flexibility, but even more so I love that the practice is a platform to train my mind; to challenge and question my core beliefs and connect with and ground myself.
"I love to teach because I can connect with people and help them to realize and sharpen the tools that they already possess within themselves to realize their full potential. We are all deep beings with many layers of thoughts/feelings; pain, joy, fear, love, etc; and often we get so caught up in the details that we forget to step back and see the vastness; the bigger picture of life: that we are all connected and that there is so much more to life than our fleeting emotions or ever-evolving physical body."

Coming from a background of dance and yoga, Merav fell in love with Pilates as it helped her understand her body better, improved her dancing techniques and skills, and made her stronger and longer (and if not by actual centimeters, then at least by feeling). Teaching for the last 7 years helped her regain strength afterbirth and increased her appreciation of the human body and its capabilities. The classes suit all levels and emphasize the connection between breathing and moving, as well as researching the work of the body as a "whole made of separate parts".
She has seen bodies change through and with the help of Pilates and believes that sometimes our body is wiser than our head, and we should just follow it to its full potential.

My yoga journey began in 2014 when I started my first year of graduate school in Long Beach, California. What began as a casual workout routine turned into the most essential outlet for me to relieve myself from the emotional struggles that came along with navigating life in academia. While my life continued to be abundant with change and transitions, my practice has always been the one thing that remained. My mat is the place where I feel safe, empowered, strong, and dare I even say graceful! My practice deepened in 2018 and became an irreplaceable aspect of my life--this is when I knew in my heart that I wanted to share how yoga changed my life with others. I traveled to India in June of 2019 where I completed my 200-hour program in Rishikesh, India, and have been teaching ever since. Life brought me to Berlin in early 2020, and I have been both practicing and teaching yoga at multiple studios across the city in search of community.

I always had a passion for movement and it has guided me through different stages of life. After dancing most of my childhood I took a break from movement, until one day, I discovered yoga. I started practicing in 2013 and studied devoutly with my teacher for almost 8 years. In between I did two 200h TTC and a 300h TTC (Vinyasa, Hatha, Yoga Synergy), assisted in teacher trainings, and studied two years of reflexology; I am very grateful for the learning path that never ends. All this incredible knowledge implies that the most important knowledge is already within us - body, mind, and soul; we just need to notice that it is there. This is what I practice and this is what I try to transfer in my teachings. In my classes, we arrive at ourselves through a combination of gentle and aligned movement, awareness of breath, embodiment, and meditation. Using all these methods we may discover amazing things, and how wonderful it is that we have the opportunity to take this journey together.

I’m intensely fascinated by movement and rediscovering the innate and intuitive patterns that the body holds. I guide people to reconnect to their body intelligence by attuning to sensation, felt perception, and a sense of presence.
