ABOUT YOUR HOSTS
Ulrike Atzmueller, based in Vienna, Austria is a Yoga, Movement and Pilates teacher, Thai Nuad practitioner, Reiki master and TCM nutritionist. .
After spending most of her adult working life coordinating international medical conferences and gala events around Austria, Ulrike discovered Yoga and Breathwork as the most beneficial combination to reduce stress and foster wellbeing for herself.
After a few years of self practice, discovering all the beautiful benefits of movement in accordance with breath, she was longing to pass this knowledge on to other people, helping them to understand their bodies better.
Her teaching style best describes as a dynamic, creative vinyasa flow with a therapeutic approach. In her classes Ulrike wants you to move with joy, discovering poses and motion you might have not experienced in a Yoga class before. Always with focussing on strengthening the body, allowing the breath to guide and brain mapping to happen.
During the pandemic Ulrike used the time to build up her own online Yoga Studio where she teaches Yin Yoga, Vinyasa Flow, Meditation and Yoga Nidra. Additional to that she loves to treat her Yogis to Thai Yoga Bodywork in her own small studio in the heart of Vienna, organizing Ecstatic Dance Events and playing the harmonium, singing her heart out.
