Gloria Wismer
Co-Founder & Co-Owner of Elevate Studio, Kundalini Yoga & Meditation Certified Teacher (500 hr)
I remember very well how I felt after I attended my first Kundalini class. I had been practicing Yoga on and off for a couple of years, mostly Hatha and Vinyasa, when I first heard someone talking about Kundalini Yoga. Without knowing much about it, I went for a trial class. And when I left the studio, I felt so deeply content, calm and at peace. I wanted to know more about it and became curious. And above all, I wanted to feel like that again. Through my regular Kundalini practice I have gained physical and mental strength, confidence, consciousness and peace of mind. And now, I look forward to passing on these effects in my classes. Besides Kundalini, I love books and have been working in the art book publishing world for many years. I am also one of the founding members and organizers of the independent art book fair VOLUMES (www.volumeszurich.ch)

Gabriela Miloda
Certified Hatha Yoga Teacher (200hrs) and Kids Yoga Teacher (25hrs).
​
I discovered yoga as a teen joining my mom’s yoga classes. Ten years
later there was a big shift in my life and I had to learn to hold space for myself. Almost simultaneously Covid hit and I started practicing Yoga at home daily. I’ve known that I wanted to do a yoga teacher training for a long time so when finally everything fell into place I was so grateful to start my journey on helping others experience the many health benefits of Yoga. Personally, Yoga continuously helps me still my mind and deepen my inner connection. It supports me in recognizing my true essence by connecting to the center of my intuition and my heart.

Chantal Stäubli
Certified Yoga Teacher (Hatha, Vinyasa, Somatic, Yin, and Iyengar Yoga & Sound Healing)
​
Yoga has become more and more important in my life over the years. For me, the physical practice is like a flirt with my own body. In the interplay between strength and stretching, effort and relaxation, yin and yang, I feel serenity and a strong sense of connection. Through my powerful yoga flows, I want you to feel the same.
In my classes, I focus on the importance of precise alignment. Inspired by Iyengar, I like to use props such as blocks, straps, and other tools to make the practice more accessible or to deepen it. I offer a variety of variations so that the poses can be adjusted to meet each individual's needs and abilities. My goal is to make yoga accessible to everyone – regardless of experience, flexibility, or physical condition – while still keeping it challenging.
Traditional elements like Pranayama, Mantras, and Mudras flow into my sessions to preserve the long-standing yoga tradition. Music is an essential part of my classes. You can expect a carefully selected playlist and a calming sound bath at the end of the class.

Daniela Zerbini
Certified Hatha and Yoga Nidra teacher
​
I have a past and present spent in the architectural world, and I can recognise how much time we are trapped in our head, making mental journeys that can affect our body and staying in wrong postures sometimes for the most part of our day. I started practicing Iyengar yoga in 2015 in Bologna, Italy, focusing more on the alignment of the asanas: my body needed attentions after the long office hours. Soon I discovered the power of Yoga, and its benefit on the mind, not only on the body: I started to see improvement in every aspect of my life and I became more and more passionate including in my practice meditation and pranayama.
After moving to Zurich in 2017 I started the practice of Hatha Yoga, and I completed the 200H Yoga Teach Training and Yoga Nidra training in Sanapurna.
I strongly believe that taking time to practice Yoga distribute our energy back to all the part of us that we have forgotten and leave space fo healthy thinking, and this is what I try to transmit in my classes.

Melaney Zaubek
Certified Hatha (200 hours, 100 hours Advanced Hatha) and Yin and Yang yoga teacher (200 hours, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Restorative and Yin).
Since my studies about 13 years ago, yoga has taken a firm place in my life and has accompanied me through many ups and downs. In the beginning, I practiced Hatha and Vinyasa in particular, but now Yin has also become more important to me. It is particularly important to me to breathe consciously and perform mindful movements. Vinyasa is like a harmonious dance between breath and movement that allows me to dive deeper into myself and understand my body better. I enjoy challenging myself and exploring my physical limits and potential. Yin is a fantastic addition that also helps me to find peace and stillness.
In my classes I strive to create a positive atmosphere where participants can find balance and harmony. My aim is to accompany my students on their path to discovering themselves and becoming free inside.

Yasemin Hutter
Certified yoga teacher for Vinyasa/Hatha (200 hours)
​
I had a long-standing on-off relationship with yoga until it clicked a few years ago and I couldn't get enough. I wanted to know more. After the 200-hour training with Jason Crandell, I want to pass on my enthusiasm for it. For me, yoga is a place that I can return to anytime and anywhere, even if it is “just” a deep, conscious inhalation and exhalation. A place where I can balance my body, mind and emotions and practice self-reflection. Yoga teaches me to deal with contradictions, to let go and to not take things and myself so seriously.

Pierrine Imboden
200hr Hatha-Vinyasa & 70hr Yin yoga teacher
​
As one of the only constants in my life, yoga has been there for over 12 years. To me, yoga is a way of returning home, reconnecting with myself physically and mentally. Especially during my rather demanding studies, the different practices have helped me tremendously. Only when I had the urge to dive deeper, learn more about it through a 200hr Hatha-Vinyasa teacher training, I started to see the beauty of passing it on. The 70hr Yin teacher training shortly afterwards was a reminder to take pressure, perfection and speed out of it. My style of yoga is therefore slow, mindful, regenerative and invites students to gently come home to themselves. Through a mixture of Hatha, slow Vinyasa and Yin elements, I'd like my classes to feel like a warm hug. With "yoga imako", I want to cherish the present moment, inspired by the Japanese way of life and the two words ima (now) and koko (here).

Claudia Ascolese
Certified Hatha Yoga teacher (500h) at Gyan YogBreath School in India / Rishikesh.
It is a great pleasure for me to be able to teach Hatha Yoga.
Yoga helped me to experience my own body and to revitalise it with physical exercises (asanas), meditation and conscious breathing (pranayama), so that my body became more flexible and stronger and my mind could relax more and more.
I have been practising different styles of yoga for 20 years, but since 2022 I have only practised hatha yoga.
My yoga is Hatha Yoga for every woman/man and gender free/neutral, every age group, with and without yoga experience..
I emphasise precise execution of the asanas. It is also important for me to feel the limits of your own body. That's why I use aids such as cushions, blocks, bolsters and straps to help you get into the poses better and achieve optimum benefits that are tailored to your own body.

Paola Napolitano
Certified Movement Analyst in LBMS (Laban/Bartenieff Movement System) from the LIMS of New York. Therapeutic Massage Therapist
I provide 60 and 90 mins treatments in classical, lymphatic drainage massage as well as dry cupping, hot/cold stone, and myofascial release to treat musculoskeletal ailments, as well as I facilitate small groups or one-to-one classes of somatic movement to support body awareness, focusing on components of space, dynamics, shape, and body.
I believe receiving hands on treatments, paired with being guided into your independent body expressivity and exploration can be an optimal blend to globally reframe the way how you perceive, voice and empower your body's needs. Noticing is just the first step for changing things we want to change.
