Experience from previous Retreats

I first met Meenakshi about a year and a half ago as my yoga teacher, and I was immediately drawn to her calm presence, clarity, and authenticity.
What I appreciate most is that she teaches yoga in its original sense—not as entertainment or performance, but as a practice of awareness, breath, and self-inquiry. Her teachings are deeply rooted in the true essence of yoga and always invite you to slow down and turn inward.
I recently attended her retreat, and it beautifully reflected these qualities. I highly recommend Meenakshi to anyone looking for an authentic and inspiring yoga teacher, and I’m already looking forward to future retreats with her.

Dieses Retreat war für mich eine ganz besondere Erfahrung.
Schon vom ersten Moment an habe ich mich willkommen und gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Meenakshi‘s Begrüßung war schon sehr herzlich. Die Gruppe bestand aus vielen lieben Menschen, die Unterkunft war schön und gemütlich, und das Essen war hervorragend.
Besonders danken möchte ich Meenakshi. Mit ihrer herzlichen, warmen und gleichzeitig ruhigen Art hat sie einen Raum geschaffen, in dem man sich öffnen, lernen und einfach sein konnte. Sie nahm sich für jede Frage Zeit und begegnete jedem Menschen mit viel Aufmerksamkeit und Wertschätzung.
Ich habe viele neue Yoga- und Meditationstechniken kennengelernt und konnte wertvolle Erfahrungen sammeln. Aus den vielen interessanten Gesprächen mit Ihr und der Gruppe nehme ich viele neuen Einsichten und Gedanken mit.
Ich bin nach Hause gefahren mit dem Gefühl, etwas bereichert worden zu sein – nicht nur in meiner Yogapraxis, sondern auch persönlich. Für diese Erfahrung bin ich sehr dankbar.
Vielen Dank für diese wundervolle Zeit.
