MiTo FlyingMonkey
Mito is a German movement junky, who loves to geek out on tricks, progression, biomechanics, healing arts and the meaning of life. But the important stuff in life doesn’t happen in the mind, so more importantly he loves to play, explore, co-create and dive into a dance of movement. Since 2014 it is also part of his passion to share his insights and experience in Acroyoga, handstands and Thai-Yoga-Massage. He teaches workshops throughout Europe and on many festivals and conventions around the world, as well as several barefootyoga.me retreats every year. His strengths are precise instructions, on-the-spot cues and subtle progressions. He will only be happy after a workshop if people are left with a smile, a good feeling in their body and a lot of inspiration..
