Yin Yoga and Meditation Classes in Vienna
I primarily practice and teach slow, gentle yoga in Vienna that nevertheless has very transformative aspects, such as Yin Yoga and Tantra Yoga (= slow Hatha Yoga), as well as meditation.
To fully integrate the mind-body perspective through the practice of asanas (postures), I also teach Yin-Yang classes – a combination of more active (but still slow) movements that unfold in Yin Yoga and meditation at the end.
Pranayama is part of every class, and meditation is included whenever possible. My preferred meditation styles, which I teach most frequently, are Yoga Nidra, mindfulness meditation, and Metta meditation.

Yoga Private Class in Vienna
A personal yoga practice shouldn't be limited to time spent on the yoga mat. With a few hours of practice per week and a few weeks of consistent practice, it's possible to develop a yoga routine that fits your life situation and daily routine. It's said that habits need 40 days of consistency to become established.
The variety is abundant. It's possible to practice a Yang style (more dynamic yoga forms with an emphasis on the muscles) and/or more of a Yin Yoga style (with an emphasis on other body tissues and deeper forms of relaxation).
Currently, private yoga classes are only offered in Vienna.

Corporate Yoga classes in Vienna
Regular corporate yoga classes primarily promote the health, well-being, and productivity of employees—thus strengthening the entire company in the long term. Yoga at the workplace has a positive effect on the physical, emotional, and mental levels: it releases tension, reduces stress, improves concentration, and fosters resilience.
The content of corporate yoga classes in Vienna is individually tailored to the group's needs, the participants' yoga experience, and the available time. Depending on the requirements, different yoga styles and techniques are used. These include Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga, slow, mindful flows, yoga exercises specifically for the back, breathing exercises (Pranayama), and short, guided meditations for relaxation.
Corporate yoga can be flexibly integrated into the workday—from weekly 30-minute lunchtime classes to longer workshops. The combination of movement, breathing exercises, and mindful presence strengthens the physical and mental health of employees, reduces stress, and positively influences the overall work atmosphere.
“Nikoleta’s yoga sessions are to me a perfec escape, which allows me to find true joy in deep stretching, relaxation and balance. She has a very calm way to guide through each posture. She explains every movement very well, while she also offers the time and space to dive deep into the asanas. I always leave her sessions with a gentle grounding feeling which lasts the whole day.”
— Cleio Papadopoulou, Vienna
