I’m from Germany, and I’ve always loved exploring new places, both within Germany and abroad. Over the last 15 years, I’ve lived in 12 different cities across 7 countries. Whenever I arrive in a new place, I always seek out three things: a good café, a bookstore, and a yoga community.

For a long time, I practiced Vinyasa and Bikram yoga on and off, primarily focusing on the physical aspects. This changed when I moved to Brighton at the start of 2021 and discovered the Inbodhi Yoga community. I had never heard of Rocket Yoga before, but after my first class, I felt both energized and calm. I was immediately hooked, not just by the physical practice, but also by the deeper, more spiritual side of yoga. The practice made me feel strong and helped me unwind from my work as a researcher in political psychology. For me, Rocket Yoga is the perfect way to get out of my head, embrace playfulness, and connect mind and body.

To deepen my practice and share my love for Rocket Yoga, I completed my 200-hour Ashtanga Yoga Teacher Training, followed by 100 hours of Rocket Yoga Training (Rocket I and Rocket II) with Inbodhi Yoga Brighton. In December 2024, I completed 50 hours of Yin and Restorative Yoga Training.

About the Rocket Flow Class:

Rocket Flow is a dynamic and fast-paced style of yoga that combines elements of Ashtanga and vinyasa practices. It was developed by Larry Schultz in the 1980s and is designed to be more accessible while still challenging. The practice emphasizes strength, flexibility, and breathwork, with a focus on building endurance through a series of flowing poses. Unlike traditional Ashtanga, Rocket Yoga is known for being more adaptable, allowing practitioners to modify sequences to suit their individual needs. Its often described as a more playful, energetic, and creative approach to yoga. The class starts with sun salutations, followed by a standing and seated sequences including optional arm balances like handstands and closes with pranayama practice. Modifications for poses are offered and actively encouraged making class accessible to all.
