Pavlina Nehrebecki

Pavlina Nehrebecki is a yoga, meditation and breathwork teacher based in Gentofte, just north of Copenhagen, whose work centres on deep rest. After university study in several European countries she built a career as a creative producer in London's events industry, until the pace of that life sent her to India to study yoga. She came back, left her agency and began teaching, first movement, then breathing practices, then meditation. Her training runs to more than 700 hours of yoga, yoga nidra with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli and Ally Boothroyd, Vedic-style mantra meditation with Jonni Pollard of 1GiantMind, functional breathing with Michael James Wong and James Dowler, and somatic and nervous-system study.

Becoming a mother, first in London and then in Denmark, shaped what she offers now. Most of her classes and programmes are for women, and especially mothers, who want to slow down and recover their energy: weekly yoga with yoga nidra, an eight-week group course on the art of rest, day retreats, cacao ceremonies and one-to-one sessions, held in studios around Copenhagen and online. She also works with companies, and for the Just Breathe school she designed and leads a certified yoga nidra teacher training and mentors trainee meditation and breathwork teachers.
