Welcome!

My name is Benedetta, but most friends call me Bene.

I created this space to share two of my biggest passions: yoga and food!

I am originally from beautiful Padova, Italy, but I spent ten years of my life in Asia before relocating to Munich in 2018, where I am still trying to get rid of my reverse culture shock.

I am a brand manager 8 hours a day and a yoga teacher and student, wannabe-chef and food lover, shower singer and bad dancer, goofy girlfriend the rest of my awake time.

Join me in Munich for yoga classes in English or keep an eye on the specials for events, workshops and retreats.

My Story

I grew up super active and loving most sports (but with no competitive spirit). Curious by nature, or maybe education - thanks to my parents - I am the greatest fan of travelling, discovering other cultures, culinary traditions and sticking my nose up towards the sky.

I left home at 21 for a quick 6 months Chinese course in Shanghai and only got back to Europe 10 years later, with my heart full of love and gratitude, friends in most countries, a belly full of delicious spicy food, a life full of experiences and a suitcase full of yoga pants.

I found yoga by chance in 2010 and I still think destiny made my hot water stop working on a freezing Shanghai winter day. This is when I finally found the guts to walk into the studio downstairs for a trial class and a nice shower… needless to say I never looked back!

I fell in love with the empowering and calming properties of the practice and with the sense of community that it creates, and am grateful to share this gift with my students.

I am a certified E-RYT 200, RYT 500 multi-style yoga teacher and forever student.
