Fanny is a Vinyasa Yoga teacher known for her thoughtful, multidimensional approach to movement. Her journey began in competitive lead climbing, where performance and precision were central. Yoga offered her a new relationship to her body, one rooted in freedom, connection, and exploration. This shift sparked a lifelong curiosity for the deeper layers of movement, awareness, and the mind-body connection.
Fanny’s approach blends biomechanics, creative flow, and energetic insight. She is dedicated to helping students experience more than just shape, bringing awareness to action, intention, and embodied experience. Drawing on her studies in functional anatomy, Rolfing, elemental systems & philosophy, she brings intelligent clarity to each class. Her guidance is passionate, thoughtful, and designed to meet students where they are, with nuance and purpose.
Why I Teach

She believes yoga is a living field of exploration: where movement, philosophy, and presence meet. Her classes invite curiosity, honesty, and a return to embodied wholeness.
