We are the creators of Yoganity, through which we run retreats all over the world.
​
What is Yoganity?
Yoganity (consisting of "Yoga" and "Humanity") describes a new kind of understanding yourself as holistic, natural, tuned in, aware and informed.
It also stands for the believe that a positive life is possible for everyone - and everyone has a right to it.
​
The philosophy of Yoganity (positive life for everyone) flows straight into what we are doing and why:
-
Yoga opens us up to healthy and happy days,
-
Spirituality connects us to who we truly are and to each other
-
Sustainability ensures that we live out the unity in our everyday lives.
Become a part of the positive movement!
