Who is Alexandra Meffert?
I am a person with two fields of expertise: art and yoga
MY BACKGROUND & EDUCATION
Art has been my thing since childhood – going to art school from early on, followed by an Art History and Business Administration B.A. (Humboldt University, Berlin) and Art Business M.A. (Sotheby’s Institute of Art, New York).
During my B.A., I co-founded wildpalms, a laboratory gallery now based in Duesseldorf with focus on artists from South and North America, environment, sustainability, social and political topics. I opened my first online store for very special art and artists.
Yoga came to me at 15. By the age of 18, I suffered of chronic pain and systemic inflammation. One of my approaches to regain my health and mobility was practicing yoga on a daily basis. I learned about meditation, went to workshops for further leanring. While living in NY, I discovered strala yoga, which was a key factor as it is based on movement and relaxation response. Here I attained 800hrs+ of yoga teacher and advanced leadership training. Currently, I am completing my 500hrs Advanced Leadership Training in TaiChi and QiGong.

Also, I am certified in functional anatomy and physiology from the Technical University in Munich.
Additionally, I have also expanded my movement practice through further trainings, such as Barre and Surfing, workshops in Ballett, Meditation and TaiChi Chen, but also through my special work with private clients and my experience with my own health journey.
How can I help?
Next to my education and knowledge, I use my deep intuition to help people connect with their inner selves, heal, find their own strengths and superpowers, and become their own superheroes.
Practicing yoga and moving well decreases stress and prevents injury, it opens up borders in our minds created by ourselves or the people around us. Yoga explores our capabilities and supports creativity. It is a kind and nurturing practice while building strength and enhancing mobility. I am not forgetting the importance of playtime, fun, and joy.
