About me
Greetings & Namaste,
First, I offer deep respects and thanks to my Shiatsu Master Kawada , My yoga teachers Madeleine Rommel and Anne Pinette whose guidance has enabled me to grow in the path of Shiatsu and yoga. I am also grateful to have come acrosse with many great Yogies, Peter Sanson, Manju Joise and Shartath through many wounderful workshops .
Shiatsu and yoga path has been grounded in certain practices that have grown in intensity over the years.
I have been studying theses two ancient therapy techniques in parallel and have been amazed of similarities and complementary aspects they share. Meditations, DO-IN (Japaneese stretching), Pranayama and Asana practices have refined my behaviour and influenced how I live in this world--taking care of family, making a living, and interacting with others and sharing the passion with every single soul I meet.
Each day I learn, from my daughter, from my teachers, loving partner and these interactions keep me reflecting on myself, which in turn helps me grow.
It isn't so much that I sought out my teachers or made any kind of decisions; it's more that the path had me. I realised at some point that, in fact, I knew nothing and that the best I could do was commit wholeheartedly to the continuous study practise and surrender. As I continue to do today, I simply aimed to understand it, apply it, live it, and then pass it on in the realm of teaching and Zen practition.

My passion and Vocation
In my early years I had very strong interest in human body, health, physiology, nutrition and digestion. I believe a knowledge of this is essential for understanding the Shiatsu and yoga process. I continued to take courses in the study of the Massage therapy, reflexology and various therapy courses including being trained as a Zone therapist.
With a degree in Medical Biology at Karolinska Institute in Stockholm , I did not go out into the world with any notion of becoming a Zen shiatsu practitioner nor did I realize the love and passion I grow for Yoga.
When I discovered Ashtanga yoga in 2009, I had already experienced working in the Pharmaceutical business world more tha 10 years and was entertaining my passion for my daughter, music and art. But Shiatsu, yoga and the spiritual path persistently called on me. I found I could not refuse, and soon my own healing journey began when I enrolled in a 3 years study of Oriental medicine and Shiatsu with Master Yuichi Kawada and soon after 500h teacher training with Madeleine Rommel. I began working as a therapist at Aspria in 2008 and started teaching Ashtanga yoga in Royal La Rasante in 2010.
Today I am a Zen practitioner and in a very near future I intend to go even deeper into the practices of Yoga Chikita which is complete in 2013.
Teaching for me is not a carrier but a vocation that needs to be experienced. It takes hard work, discipline and motivation to get there and I see myself being very lucky to have had that support to have come this far. My journey continues...
Thank you for taking your time knowing about me.
OM, Shanti
