Annika Ziehen

Annika was born in Germany and in touch with yoga since her childhood through her mother who is a teacher. Her very own yoga journey started in 2004 when she took her first Bikram class. Living in New York at the time, she started practising regularly and fell in love with it. Since then Bikram has been a grounding factor in her life, balancing the ups and downs of work, travel, and several moves across the Atlantic. She realized that with Bikram yoga she feels at home immediately anywhere in the world.

Moving to Cape Town in 2007 she continued her practise here and also started Yoga Nidra – her favourite for long plane rides. In May 2010 Annika started to make one of her dreams come true and began teacher training for Bikram Yoga. She has just celebrated her first complete year of teaching
