What I bring
Since 2023, I’ve been a Registered Dietitian and Hatha Yoga teacher.
After my nutrition studies I moved to Switzerland and there I have worked in the food industry within Research & Development. This gave me a perspective a lot of dietitians don’t have, an inside look at how and why certain food products get made and marketed, which shapes how I think about helping people understand what’s genuinely healthy, not just what’s sold as such. This is why I find it all the more important to educate people on the link between food and health.
Health is not only found in nutrition, though. Your mindset and physical acivity level play a big part too. Since I did my first Yoga Teacher Training that has become increasingly more obvious to me. And for that reason I do not just want to help people with their food habits, but with their overall health.
Next to the private yoga classes you’ll also find me teaching around Bern: I teach yoga at Pandora where I volunteer for SPORTEGRATION, and I’m a substitute teacher at Yama Yoga & Co and La Luna in Langnau
In my free time I’m usually in the kitchen fermenting something, natto, kimchi, vegan yoghurt, or making my own plant milks and seitan from scratch. It’s less a side hobby and more where a lot of my practical, hands-on food knowledge actually comes from
Specialisations
Plant-based eating
For vegans, vegetarians and omnivores
As a long-time vegan and food scientist, I help you build a well-planned plant-based (or more plant-forward) diet that covers your nutrient needs, with practical meal planning and supplements where truly necessary. Reduces the risk of common deficiencies while keeping your food enjoyable.
Mindfullness / Mental health
Remove brainfog, clear the mind
Combining meditation, breathwork, Yoga Nidra, and steady nutrition to calm the nervous system, centre the mind, and support focus, energy, and better sleep. Helpful for easing overwhelm, steadying emotional regulation, reducing racing thoughts, and building a calmer, more predictable rhythm to your day.
Microbiome / digestion
Improve nutrtient absorption and stool
I teach techniques to improve bio-availability like sprouting beans and soaking nuts (among others), alongside yoga's calming effect on the nervous system. This addresses nutrient deficiencies, stress, and hormonal imbalance. This can help to reduce anaemia, acne, period cramps, and gut issues like IBS.
Athleticism
Gain muscle, lose fat, improve performance
Combining strength-focused Hatha yoga and tailored nutrition to help you gain muscle, lose fat, and improve athletic performance. Helpful for building strength, protecting joints and bones, preventing injury during sport or ageing, and improving posture, stamina, and flexibility along the way.
