Yoga

Mariekje Benecken

Mariekje was initially searching for a tool to increase her resilience when she discovered yoga. What began as a short bedtime routine soon turned into a life style, a gateway to presence, patience, compassion and so much more. She completed her first 200 hour teacher training in 2018 and feels very lucky to share this beautiful practice ever since (- it’s the best job in the world!). Her aim is to create a supportive environment for students to explore their own bodies & minds and to discover a sense of liberation and creativity. She wants her students to leave the class feeling empowered yet serene, refreshed and inspired. Mariekje completed her 300hr Jivamukti Yoga Training in 2022 and is currently undergoing the 630+ hour mentorship program under the guidance of Anja Kühnel. She is eternally grateful to all the teachers who crossed her path and continue to inspire her everyday. Besides being a yoga teacher she… studies psychology in Berlin.
