Maria

Certified yoga and meditation teacher with a medical background
Founder of Yoga Studio MOOS (Hamburg, Germany)

I have been practicing yoga since 2008.

  • I have studied in India, Europe, Moscow, and Saint Petersburg.
  • I trained in Yoga Therapy under A. Frolov.
  • I completed a Yoga Therapy course under Inessa Mashyanova, Iyengar Yoga.
  • Since 2017 I have been practicing Vipassana meditation and have completed three 10-day Vipassana retreats.
  • 75 HR JIVAMUKTI Teacher Training course with Anna Lunegova and Olga Oskorbina (Moscow)
  • 300 HR JIVAMUKTI Teacher Training course (India)

In my classes I place the primary emphasis on precise alignment, safety, achieving a balanced state, and understanding what your body is trying to tell you.

I regularly lead yoga retreats in the Kaliningrad region and India.
My education is an endless process of learning, self-improvement, and new discovery.

In my practice I integrate various yoga traditions — from the structural style of Iyengar to dynamic Vinyasa. I enjoy bringing different approaches and methods into my classes that deepen our understanding of our own bodies and the boundaries of their potential.

I believe that every person is unique — for all our similarities, no two bodies are alike, just as no two life paths are the same.

Ekaterina

Certified yoga teacher
My intention is to help students develop a deeper awareness of their body, breath, and inner state, so that yoga becomes an embodied experience rather than just a physical form.

I integrate different styles of yoga—from structured, alignment-based practice to more dynamic flows—depending on what best supports the student. Breath awareness and mindful attention are at the core of my classes, creating space for clarity, presence, and stability.

My approach is shaped by continuous learning and a deep interest in yoga philosophy, which reminds me that yoga is not only movement, but a path of self-inquiry and awareness.

  • I have been teaching yoga for 6 years
  • 200-hour Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training (Bali)
  • 300-hour Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training (India)
  • 80-hour Pre- and Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training (India)
  • In-depth studies in Vedic philosophy, including yoga and astrology (Shreenathji Vedic School, India)
  • Yin Yoga Teacher Training (60h, online)
  • Adjust & Assist Teacher Training with Maria Rokhmanenko (50h)
