About Anna
Anna Folmer is a 500-hour certified yoga teacher. She has been teaching for 25 years, and she received her Power Yoga teacher certification in 1999. Her teaching experience extends from United States to Singapore and Europe. Anna has taught yoga in local gyms, boutique studios, hotels, under coconut trees, on the Autobahn, and with Afghan refugees in an Austrian alpine village. Like many practitioners, upon the pandemic in 2020, she started teaching yoga online.
Anna’s educational background, in addition to yoga, is in Environmental Economics and Extension Science, in which she holds a Masters degree.
Anna teaches yoga for all levels and all ages. Anna competently challenges Olympic-level athletes in fiery vinyasa classes, and in her gentle classes, students get her softer side as she lovingly assists 95 year-old ladies from sitting to standing and through gentle poses. In addition, Anna is a certified prenatal yoga teacher, and having four children of her own, she has a lot of experience. Anna also has experience teaching trauma-sensitive yoga to groups like Veterans with PTSD and women affected by abuse.
People love her strong, challenging vinyasa classes and other students only know and love her as a gentle teacher. What all her students have in common is that they all feel they are safe, because Anna makes alignment an integral part of every class.
In 2020, Anna moved with her family to a small Alpine village near Kufstein, Austria from sunny San Clemente, California. Anna is available to teach private classes and small group classes in the convenience of your home – live or online.
