FeetUp inversion by the water in the evening light

The very idea of flowing water already holds a sense of calm within it. That is how the breath-guided Hatha Vinyasa practice feels: flowing, breath-led movements that become a moving meditation. The breath bridges body and mind, harmonising your energy and quieting the mind.

Classes & offerings

  1. Group in a flowing vinyasa practice at the RiverRoom

    Hatha Vinyasa Yoga

    A flowing, breath-guided practice rooted in the tradition of Sri T. Krishnamacharya – shaped by the lineages of Hatha Vinyasa Parampara, Mark Whitwell, Jivamukti and Ashtanga Yoga. The asanas are connected through breath focus (Vinyasa Krama) and Ujjayi breathing, turning the sequence into a moving meditation. The breath bridges body and mind.

  2. Practising on the FeetUp stool in the studio

    FeetUp Yoga

    Using the FeetUp stool, inversions are gently woven into the flowing practice. Your perspective shifts from rational thinking towards feeling and intuition – a wonderful, supported way into inversions. Not suitable with glaucoma and/or high blood pressure.

  3. Sound journey with a singing bowl in the group

    Specials

    Yin Yoga, workshops, meditation, pranayama, mantra and sound – special formats that complement and deepen your regular practice.

About me

My path to yoga

I'm Katrin Kirsch, I live in Viechtach, I'm married and the mum of a son. Around 15 years ago I fell in love with yoga – at first as a counterbalance to the back pain I'd built up over years of working with horses as a riding instructor and trainer. From the very first Hatha Yoga class I felt the deep sense of well-being it brought – physically and mentally.

In May 2021 I broke both wrists in a riding accident. During my recovery yoga became my anchor – especially the Vinyasa practice without weight on the hands.
