Upcoming Yoga Retreats

Bärbel teaches in the heartfelt YOGAMOUR style – a refreshing blend of dynamism, lightness, and mindfulness. In the mornings, we flow together through energizing Vinyasa sequences, while the late afternoons invite you to calming Yin Yoga sessions, accompanied by breathing exercises and meditation.

With Bärbel’s attentive yoga sequences, powerful flows, and back-friendly Yin Asanas, you strengthen your body awareness and discover an upright, proud posture – both inside and out. You’ll take home this newfound lightness and joy.

For more challenging poses, Bärbel always offers gentle variations – making each practice welcoming, nourishing, and perfectly tailored to you.
