Sybille Schlegel in the Heart of Europe (#39) - a podcast by Mark Whitwell

Mark sits down with long-time friend and German Yogini Sybille Schlegel to reflect on many things, including the dreadful shadow of war in Europe, with its grim echoes of the past. Sybille draws on her background in history and present role as co-founder and teacher of Hatha Vinyasa Parampara Studio in Mainz. A student of Sanskrit, she talks about the journey from conscientious western academic to whole-body understanding.  Sybille speaks about discovering the principles of Krishnamacharya and the implications for her teaching and community, the influence of the sage Nisargadatta Maharaj, and the impact of yoga on all relationships.  As well as co-founding and teaching at her yoga school in Mainz, Sybille writes a monthly column for Yoga Journal Germany, and has co-facilitated the 'Good Vibes' Yoga Festival in Darmstadt. She has hosted Heart of Yoga teacher trainings in Mainz for many years & has been instrumental in introducing so many good people to their breath & embodied experience.  More info on the school at www.hathavinyasa-schule.de
