Upon agreement, joining at a later date is possible.

Only for outdoor classes. For indoor sessions, plenty of mats, blankets, and cushions are available.

The techniques in this class are inspired by Kundalini Yoga according to Harbhajan Singh Puri, Kundalini Yoga/Hatha Yoga according to Dhirendra Brahmachari, as well as Sukshma Vyayama by Dhirendra Brahmachari.

I also personally practice Bikram Yoga, Ashtanga Yoga, and Shaolin Kung Fu, which may influence my classes.

My goal is to pass on useful techniques and clearly explain their effects.

In the class, we practice breathing exercises, physical movements and postures, as well as concentration exercises and meditations. The sessions are quite varied.

Many people are hesitant about trying yoga because they feel they aren't flexible enough. Please don't worry—that's a misconception. I also demonstrate several variations so that everyone gets the greatest possible benefit.

A daily routine pursued with discipline is said to be a powerful remedy against procrastination. A yogic lifestyle goes hand in hand with daily routines. The practice of yoga and its effects can help strengthen your motivation to maintain such a routine. In addition, you will discover a few mindsets and concepts that can assist you in adjusting your life structure.

The entire practice—and especially the concentration exercises, which in this style often "force" you to focus strictly on the task at hand—can alter your awareness of thought organization (through neuroplasticity). If you are able to participate as best as you can with ADHD, the practice can be helpful.

However, an environmentally induced dopamine dysregulation (for instance, triggered by smartphone addiction), which is often confused with ADHD, could be effectively managed through a yogic lifestyle in particular.

Nevertheless, please also seek medical advice.

Regular and intensive practice of Kundalini Yoga could overstimulate the glandular system and nervous system in children up to 13 years of age. Children at this age are considered "not stable" enough for this practice. Even more likely, they will simply get bored. There is yoga designed specifically for children, but I do not offer this.

I try to explain the ideas behind concepts that seem spiritual as physically, psychologically, and anatomically as possible—essentially translating them into our modern language. Due to mistranslations and misinterpretations, these texts and practices often acquire their mystical quality, which is why many people in the West struggle to take yoga seriously.

When ancient texts are translated, quoted, and followed literally word-for-word, it quickly comes across as pseudo-spiritual. People often overlook how much the meaning of words and ways of expression evolve over centuries or millennia.

In my view, it is crucial to understand the processes in the body and, above all, to understand oneself before being ready for any so-called "higher mystical energy."

The goal of Kundalini Yoga is to awaken the so-called "Kundalini," an "energy" said to lie dormant in the tailbone. You will discover in my course in Vienna what this actually means—and why the whole thing isn't nearly as pseudo-spiritual as it is often portrayed—over the course of my class in Vienna.

Through regular practice, the goal is to undergo a physical and mental "cleansing" so that the body's systems can function unhindered.

This process represents, among other things, a period of realization and learning. The idea is that one should first become physically and mentally capable of enabling an "awakening." In the course of this, you become aware of things—your "consciousness is expanded." This process could also be described as the "awakening of the Kundalini."

What this can mean in greater detail is something you will learn in my Kundalini Yoga class in Vienna.

There is no certificate to be earned in my class. Instead, you will learn a lot about your body, gain inspiration, and receive practical ideas for your daily life, your health, and a fulfilling path forward.

On a physical level regarding joints, muscles, and so on, it is generally very safe, though you should naturally never push past your body's limits. Inside the body, the glandular system—and thus the hormonal system—is influenced, and organs are stimulated. This can initially lead to temporary discomfort or irritation, which usually subsides as your practice progresses.

This can also have an impact on an emotional level: you may suddenly perceive the world and your own life with greater clarity, which can bring up new and sometimes uncomfortable perspectives. If you are dealing with mental health struggles, you should definitely consult a medical professional beforehand. However, these are things that can happen not only through Kundalini Yoga, but also through activities like sports or deep conversations and personal insights.

At least in my classes, no one has reported any issues so far.

I am often asked about this lately because the term "Kundalini Awakening" is increasingly being misappropriated on social media for various practices aimed at inducing an "awakening of Kundalini energy" (for example, where one person lies on the floor while another guides them and places hands on their body). Some of these practices also utilize holotropic breathing—which is unfortunately often loosely termed "breathwork," or rebranded using buzzwords combining "breath" with "hypnotic," "trance," "psychedelic," etc., to market the technique as a proprietary brand.

While these practices can trigger emotional or motor responses (such as shaking), these effects are merely temporary. They do not bring about a lasting "awakening" or neuroplastic change. I do not consider them ineffective—they can certainly be a step along the way. However, they have little to do with the genuine concept of awakening the Kundalini. In truth, the "awakening" was already activated the moment you decided to take an interest in it.

I do not offer these practices. Instead, I provide a practice aimed at a lasting, sustainable "awakening"—one that is the result of years or even a lifetime of dedication. Over time, the true meaning of this becomes clearer and clearer.

In my class, I aim to explain in modern language what occurs in the brain, body, psyche, as well as the nervous and endocrine systems, using this perspective to translate ancient concepts.

I strongly distance myself from pseudo-spiritual and supernatural promises.
