ANJA BERGH.

Twenty years ago, I didn't know how many layers I had to burn, or how much sadness and shame I had to accept as part of me. 

I didn't know that through strength, resilience and hard boundaries that I'd find the softness and sensitivity that I really am. I didn't know that intimacy could be as simple and deep as a cuddle, reading a book or as skin and tea

I didn't know that my individuality and solitude were the pillars of longevity in all of my relationships. I didn't know that my vulnerability was allowed or that it was lovable. I didn't know that by acknowledging the pleaser, the perfectionist, even my poutiness or my ability to manipulate others could show me my real power 

.

 

I didn't know that I could shift the energy of my bloodline.

I didn't know that even when I'm alone in the world, that I could catch myself. I didn't know that through this practice I'd be led to a different philosophy and a new worldview. I didn't know that I'd have to lose everything in order to gain myself. 

And I never realized that I never have to give up so easily.

It's not possible to know where we'll end up once we start, and it can feel impossible to discover that there's so much wealth available to each of us in just the presence of what we already are and have.

And I had no idea I'd have the absolute honor to guide thousands of others on their journey.

And all those years ago, when I first started, I never expected to gain even a glimpse of the kind of depth balance has and is. But I did.

I'm no longer interested in shapes but with what fills the pose, any pose. I want to build experiences that get you feeling free, calm and grounded, even when you're confused, sad, are struggling or experiencing pain.

And I won't pretend to know any of your shit, nor will I hold you accountable to fit into any form of truth.

But what I do know are techniques that can help you to be with yourself, and I know where your body is in relation to gravity and space...you see, balance, it's basic, yet so rich and deep.

I use yoga as a means to create community. So I, too, can belong. It was never my aim to do so, but that's what my actions have created. I offer space for people to come together, and then I keep showing up to the best of my ability year after year after year. 

And I'd like to give you space and community to make your own discoveries of freedom, of belonging, of mastery.

MYTHIC YOGA.
