Anja Bergh

Anja Bergh is unique in the field of yoga. She lives on the short list of people that drive me to become a better person. Wise, intelligent, curious, caring, she naturally cultivates and models next level community wherever she goes. I frequently turn to her for advice as a friend and colleague around virtually everything from unique embodiment practices, to philosophy, to questions of vision and collaboration. I find few teachers as generous with their time and service as she is. She humbly invites other teachers to share with her students (even though she could easily guide them through volumes of material) simply to open up dialogue and offer differing perspectives. I think one of the things that I admire most about Anja is her dedication to continuously study and reinvent and evolve with an easefulness that compels me to stay close and learn.

I could spend an entire Sunday describing Anja with words that are synonymous with the soft edges of life—a sunset, a lioness, a home—she’s a safe space, yet fierce. She’s humble and masterful. She’s taken my mind and body to places I never imagined they could go. There’s so much depth and height to what she offers that can’t be described in words, as it would dilute the magnitude of her ability to hold you while you explore and discover the boundaries of your being and life. She’s family and community on every level. Wise, sturdy, beautiful, soft and creative. A natural at leading. A well of all that’s sacred. She's Mother Presence and is gifted with clear intuition. I’m beyond grateful to have her as a teacher, a guide, a fellow earth child, soul sister and dear friend. She offers more than a glimpse. She invites an experience of a lifetime.”
