Nadja & Verena

Nadja: After many years of experience in Stuttgart, as an Italian and English trainer, I decided to learn a new and original method of teaching (and learning) foreign languages and successfully completed the teaching programme.

The PDL method originates from psychodrama and dramaturgy. Seine Erfinder sind die französischen Pädagogen Dr. Bernard und Marie Dufeu, denen ich viel verdanke. Thanks to them and the enthusiasm that this method, which is based on innate expressiveness, transmits, my approach to teaching has completely changed.

Teaching or being a trainer (which I prefer) means offering the experience of “living” a language. Within a group or in an individual Italian course, you can discover and develop your mostly unknown talent for dialogue. So ist eine Sprache nicht mehr fremd, denn mit einer Erlebnismethode, die ein reales Gespräch ähnelt, nähert man sich ohne Druck, und mit individuellem Rhythmus, grammatikalischen Strukturen, Aussprache und Konversation.

For those who speak German and want to improve their Italian, I have created both group and individual courses that focus on learning Italian according to the PDL method and that can be integrated with other courses to make your language holiday in Sardinia a 360-degree experience.

Verena: My Journey with Yoga and Holistic Development

Over 20 years ago, I encountered yoga for the first time—a moment that captivated me instantly. The sense of calm, focus, and inner strength inherent in the practice of yoga left a profound impression on me. A few years later, I decided to deepen my understanding and connection with yoga. In 2010, this journey led me to South India, where I completed my first yoga teacher training at the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Meenakshi Ashram in Madurai.

In the years that followed, I expanded my knowledge in areas such as pranayama, philosophy, anatomy, and adjustment. I participated in various teacher trainings, including Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga with Manju P. Jois, and attended numerous retreats, workshops, and advanced trainings. In 2022/23, I broadened my expertise by completing a diploma in Mental and Communication Training, which had a significant impact on my teaching methods and approach. At the beginning of 2024, I added another layer to my practice by becoming a certified Thai Nuad Massage practitioner at the ITM School in Chiang Mai, Thailand.

Since 2011, I have been teaching yoga through group and private sessions, courses, as well as international retreats and workshops. As a Thai Nuad practitioner, I also offer holistic bodywork treatments, supporting my clients on multiple levels of wellbeing and balance.

My Approach
I guide and support individuals in their processes of development, healing, growth, and transformation. Together, we work towards enhancing mental, emotional, and physical health while fostering serenity and wellbeing.

I look forward to meeting you and collaborating with you on your journey to greater balance and vitality.
