Vocation
I love life and learning. These two are in my eyes extensively interwoven. If we live consciously and keep changing we learn constantly. While we learn and develop ourselves, we experience life to be colourful and intense. I wish to help people, to discover their inner core, their talents and their strengths and to walk their own individual path. I would like to support organisations in establishing an innovative learning culture. I will accompany you for a while on your path to support you in your goal of shaping your personal life and professional processes with newly found confidence, in mindfulness and health.
In the form of the Yoga Academy for life and learning, I realize my vision of a house full of learning and teaching. Amongst the Indian culture, I have studied yoga for over two years directly at its origin. Today, yoga forms the connecting link among all topics that have always affected and inspired me as well as the core of the Academy. All my experiences and knowledge gained over the past 20 years, full of life, learning and working, are now coming together in this Yoga Academy. At one of the most beautiful places in the world, after many years of learning in my family, my profession and in India and one crucial life event, now is the right moment. I invite you open-heartedly, to learn and work with me, to practise yoga and to manifest your visions.

Voices of companions about Friederike Fahr:
"Friederike's apprehension is very pronounced. She always takes in the whole situation and intuitively grasps the cause of the problem immediately. She won't be deceived and sees behind the curtain. She's got the look. She is compassionate. She has high aspirations and provides high quality work."
(Ulrike Günther; Ulrike Günther; artist, yoga instructor and naturopath)

"Friederike is warm-hearted, approachable, empathetic, caring and honours the needs of others. She is thoughtful, a good friend, persistent. She has profound knowledge, is well-read, loves to explore, is courageous and open-minded. She is a great hostess, warm-hearted, humorous and convivial. She is athletic, nutrition-conscious and values a high quality of life - she lives consciously and enjoys herself."
(Sybille Vosberg; lawyer, mediator
and university lecturer,
specialist lawyer for family law)

"When working with Friederike, you will feel very quickly that she not only is at home between heaven and earth but is also firmly rooted on earth while having a special connection to a different star.
In her work, I keep being fascinated by the seemingly simplicity of her questions, which give you assurance even though they are doubtlessly based on analytical expertise and a distinctive spirit of research. Friederike inspires others to see themselves. Her message is always to try and recognise oneself, to formulate desires, to life your dreams and visions and, to this end, to let changes happen every day. Friederike is not estranged by any soul's desire, you will experience her coaching talents with all her experiences. She will accompany you part of your path if you wish.
In my opinion, this talent results from her interdisciplinary knowledge in connection with the different roles in her personal and professional life in which Friederike is at home.
In all her roles, she is primarily a human being – a human being with a fascinatingly dosed feminine manifestation. She will due to her vast experiences have a great deal of understanding for you and your desires, who can accompany you, until you can take on the lead for yourself again. All the while, you will be nurtured with stability and wisdom. You will experience emotional wealth and you will be able to embrace yourself."
(Antje Haupt; lawyer and chief executive of the education company ciT GmbH Leipzig)
