With passion for movement and fascination over different ways to still the mind she likes to explore the language between body and mind.
Simply said,
yoga is about balance
Instead of talking about yoga style I prefer to talk about the yoga effect. I always teach from a holistic ayurvedic perspective which means our yoga is for creating balance and freedom in our body, heart and mind. Sometimes that means to align. Sometimes to let go. Sometimes to activate and create dynamic, sometimes to be still in silence. There is a time and place for everything. The question to ask oneself is
‘What do I need and search for?’
More about me
Some personal lines
My first meeting with Yoga was in 1999. I joined a friend on a 3 hour session that contained a mix of philosophy, asanas and Yoga Nidra. I still remember the feeling afterwards, how I walked the streets of Stockholm and felt so enormously calm as if I had all the time in the world. Instead of hurrying to the train as usual I was slowly walking and I can still clearly remember how I really was present at the moment and saw all the colors, shapes and sensed the smells and recognized me as part of something much bigger, something divine.
A few years earlier, I had my spiritual awakening on a mountain peak in Iceland and what I felt after this first yoga session was exactly the same connection, the feeling that everything is one and that I’m a part of it, that I’m something much more than just my body and my thoughts; I had a clear meeting with my innermost self. And the “yoga effect” lasted for several days! I was in love! ♥
Yoga With Me
From Hatha Yoga into exploration and free movement
The yoga form I teach has its roots in the traditional Hatha Yoga but over the years I’ve moved more and more into the somatic field of exploration and free movement. When I teach regular Yoga classes I often call it “Organic Hatha Yoga”; it is my version of Ha (power/energy) Tha (stillness/ silence) Yoga (union/ oness) where we play with the elements, where we connect with the nature and explore us human beeings as part of it all; where we connect with our authentic movement and get support from ancient wisdom and the structure of Yoga.
I have also manifested my insights in my concept called ‘Freemove Yoga’ which is a movement practice that combines different techniques of yoga- and dance therapy.
I am educated both in Sweden, England and in India and my main teachers are Surinder Singh in Rishikesh and Dr Kamaraj in Kerala. I am also one of two certified teachers in Sweden in ‘Embodied Yoga Principles’ which is a new method of teaching yoga based on ideas from material arts, embodiement, yoga and meditation, created by Mark Walsh who also was my teacher.
For me yoga is a lot about how we meet ourselves. Yoga can help us to respond as we want in our everyday life and we can enhance what we want with the help of body positions; perhaps we need to take more space in some situations, maybe we need support and stability, maybe we need to surrender and let go. Simply said, yoga is about balance; balance in body and in mind so we ourselves can be so balanced that we can be good people on this earth and do good.
Yoga is about how we can experience the feeling of overall harmony inwards even if the outer world is demanding and challenging. In our body, from origin, there are systems that link our mental, emotional and physical state. We can physically work with the body to release emotional states and vice versa, and yoga has a very profound knowledge of that particular connection. Yoga goes very closely with the thinking in Ayurveda which I also practice; they are delicately interconnected and gives us as individuals a holistic perspective on ourselves and each other.
Freemove Yoga
Your body knows
With inspiration from many years of teaching and practicing Angelica created the Freemove Yoga concept where yoga and exploratory movement as well as stillness and being in the present now guides us into new places in ourselves and to great liberation. All in a safe frame where sharing and debriefing plays an important roll. Angelica guides you in her creative and genuine way through this journey of movement and emodiement; Freemove Yoga is a movement practice using different techniques in a delicate mix.
Dance your yoga from inner stillness to exploratory movement and let your movement be your meditation and liberation!
Freemove Yoga is based on the idea that your body knows exactly what it needs and what is best for it if you are given the chance to listen, feel and explore in a safe and secure context. We focus on being in the presence when we flow and explore through our free movement, yoga asanas and dance and you will experience the feeling of freedom in different ways. You will be given insight into who you are right here right now and where you are heading. We work with different themes during the sessions and you are safely guided through all feeds.
Raise your inner potential
The purpose of Freemove Yoga is to raise your inner potential and increase your body awareness which together gives you a stronger sense of self, power and insight into who you are and what you want and get you more present in the moment.
Earlier participants have described it with words like:
* JOY * FREEDOM * SPACE * ENERGY * STILLNESS * TANTRIC * HAPPINESS * GRATITUDE * PEACE * POWER * RELEASE * THE TRUTH * ECSTASY * SATISFACTION
