Off Grid Yoga School

For 20 years I have found a sense of peace and healing through Yoga, and I'm humbled to share this practice and way of life. Through the process of building our retreat center together with my husband, and living an off-grid close-to-nature lifestyle, I’ve come to realize that natural living and yogic living go hand in hand. For me, nature is the ideal space to deepen one’s Yoga practice, and learn ways to both integrate Yoga and share it with others. The core principles of Off Grid Yoga School is to honor authentic Yoga to the highest respect; to apply Yogic ways to the Western way of life.

Franzi began her journey to healing with her study of psychology and ultimately graduating as a counsellor in Vienna. Dismayed by the narrow parameters that defined psychological health in the Western system she travelled to India where she worked with orphaned children. There she met her teachers - yoga therapists Acharya Venkatesh and Acharya Hema, with whom she studied for three years. ⁠ ⁠Franzi has experienced a profound return to health through the kriyas and practices learned under their guidance. Her teaching is based on the therapeutic approach of traditional hatha yoga.
