Barbara considers herself exceptionally fortunate to have been taught by excellent senior teachers throughout the last 16 years.
Among them all, the recent years she makes time to visit Sharmila Desai in Goa. There she finds resonance, context and safety of Sharmila’s ethical teaching.
 
Barbara shares her experience, well-founded training and knowledge, which expands and establishes itself through continuous daily practice. She continuously keeps learning the traditional techniques of asana, pranayama and is studying the philosophical principles of Vedanta, Sanskrit, Tantra and Buddhist Psychology.

To meet her students where they are, to understand that practice is an ever evolving process, to experience and accept the physical and mental limits, recognizing and mastering challenges as such, cultivating serenity and, above all, cultivating a loving interaction, these are all aspects that have shaped Barbara's yoga path for many years.

Motherhood and her son David are her greatest teachers in all ways.
