Mindful Yoga for Wellbeing2025-05-21T03:50:45+07:00

Welcome. My name is Gernot Huber and I teach private and group yoga classes in northern New Jersey, New York City, and online. I also teach yoga workshops and trainings worldwide, and yoga retreats in the US, Europe, and Thailand. My unique approach to yoga focuses on wellbeing through the integration of biomechanics, mindfulness, and joy.

I make visible the connections between patterns of movement, alignment, and breath on the one hand, and our mental processes on the other. By focusing on the interconnections between the physical and mental dimensions of yoga, I help you create a more holistic practice that is both more beneficial and more enjoyable. With clarity, compassion, and humor, I make my teachings accessible to students of all levels, abilities, and ages.

To find out more about my approach to yoga, read a feature article published by Shut Up & Yoga. Or you can listen to an interview with me on The Embodiment Podcast.

Lengthen and Compress Your Spine

Back pain is one of the most common physical complaints people have. 80% of Americans complain of back pain at some point in their lives. Learning to stop overusing your spine (which we do to avoid having to stretch big hip and shoulder muscles) can help keep your spine safer. In addition, learning to lengthen and compress your spine intentionally and safely can improve the health of your spinal discs, [...]

Guide Your Awareness

Last week we worked on spreading awareness to all the parts of our bodies. This week we will focus on generating the sensitivity to guide your awareness to where you need it most. There are many poses in which almost everyone benefits from the same alignment instructions (i.e., energize and lift the back thigh in high lunge). However, all our bodies are different. Sometimes that may mean that while an alignment instruction [...]
