Egon is a certified Hatha Yoga teacher(RYT-200), Zen Shiatsu
practitioner, Heilpraktiker and hiking guide.
Born in South Tyrol, Italy, Egon was brought up in the small village
of "La
Villa",
in the Dolomite Alps(Italy). Here he discovered, at an early
age, his love for the mountains and nature.
After high school he started travelling, and made a variety of
extended world journeys, where he soon discovered the passion for
alternative medicine and ancient wisdom, which brought him towards
the philosophy and practice of Yoga, Shiatsu and chinese Medicine.
He started his intensive ZenShiatsu studies in Munich, Milan and
Switzerland. At the same time he attended the 3 year “Heilpraktiker”
school (Naturopathy) and earned his diploma. After practicing for
some years in Germany and Italy, he moved to Switzerland where
he started up his own studio.
His very first contact with Yoga was 1994 through a book from Erich
Schiffmann "moving into stillness". Since then he has been practicing Yoga in different Ashrams and centers throughout India and around the world, studying with various teachers. More to his Yoga-style on the "inside" page.
