About me

My name is Jana..

..I'm a Somatic Bodyworker & Coach, Tantric Bodyworker and Embodiment Facilitator.

Originally I am from Germany, but since 2021 i am based at the beautiful Algarve in Portugal.

I dedicated my life to research the potential & portal of the human body through movement, touch & conscious relating.

The things that make me thrive & shine in life are being in nature, dance and to be in connections, where i can be completly authentic & vulnerable.

Let me tell you a bit more about my journey.

MY JOURNEY

My journey began 15 years ago with yoga and meditation during one of the lowest points in my life. Struggling with bulimia, emotional numbness and deep shame, I felt disconnected - from myself, my body, and others.

Yoga and Vipassana meditation marked the start of my journey. Over the years, I discovered Conscious Movement (5 Rhythms, Ecstatic Dance, Contact Impro, and Movement Medicine), Somatic Bodywork, and Tantra—practices that profoundly transformed me.

For years, I lived in survival mode and constant shame, disconnected from my body, my pleasure and my feminine essence.

I felt numb, desperate and unable to allow deep intimacy, also this was my deepest longing

For years, I lived in survival mode, disconnected from intimacy, pleasure, and my feminine essence.

The last years my journey has been about reclaiming, what has been shamed, tamed and suppressed for many years.

Reclaiming the full range of my emotions.

Reclamining my raw & untamed feminine power.

Reclaiming my body as a sacred temple.

Reclaiming my pleasure.

Reclaiming my body as my home.

Reclaiming my authentic expression.

Reclaiming my primal & erotic nature.

I believe the human body is a portal to something far beyond the physical, and I’m dedicated to exploring its infinite potential.

My work is rooted in my own embodied experiences, and I am honored to guide others on their own paths of reconnection and self-discovery.
