Puppy Yoga Retreat
About us
Ines Brendel
Founder of Puppy Yoga Retreat
I am a passionate yoga teacher who believes deep in my heart that both the body and the mind are always finding new ways to heal and grow. I have been fascinated by dogs since childhood – their unconditional love and ability to live in the moment have always inspired me.
This love for animals and my dedication to practicing yoga have led me to combine animal welfare and yoga. Because I believe in both the healing that comes from a regular yoga practice and the healing that comes from connecting with dogs. My life is about mindfulness, inner balance and joy. Which we find in the simple things – be it in a deep yoga pose or in the gaze of a dog who meets us with his faithful soul.
My yoga trainings in India, Munich and Corfu have not only made me a passionate yoga teacher, but the experiences I have had on my travels have shaped me to a great extent and made me the person I am today. All in all, my yoga trainings comprise over 1300 hours, but to this day I am not only a teacher in every class, but also a student who is allowed to learn from her participants.

Lena Bachmeier
Yoga teacher and retreat leader
Lena is a young, dedicated and qualified yoga teacher who combines her passion for yoga with a deep love for animals. After successfully completing an intensive 500h training in Vinyassa and Hatha yoga, she began to develop her own practice and philosophy based on mindfulness, inner balance and body awareness.
Lena manages to inspire her students and lead them to a state of deep relaxation and mindfulness. For her, yoga is not just a physical discipline, but a way to open the heart and come into harmony with oneself and the world. In her free time, she is often out and about with her own dogs, using the tranquillity of nature and the unconditional love of her animals as a source of strength and inspiration.
