Dynamic Mindfulness Yoga School
Practice and teach science-based yoga, Buddhist mindfulness meditation and self-agency. This is yoga reimagined—mindful, dynamic, and deeply human. Welcome.
Meet the founder:
Tatjana Mesar is a yoga and meditation educator, musician, and the creator of Dynamic Mindfulness, a contemporary yoga school bridging Buddhist wisdom and modern movement science. With over 140 teachers trained across 40 countries, her approach blends more then two decades of Chan Buddhist practice, shiatsu therapy, and the Axis Syllabus, enriched by Berlin’s vibrant somatic scene, feminism, and everyday inspiration.
Once a classical flutist, Tatjana perceives the body as an instrument. Her teaching is grounded, intuitive, and deeply mindful, inviting inquiry beyond the mat.
Dynamic Mindfulness was born from a vision for training that centers meditation, critical thinking, and inclusivity. Frustrated by yoga’s commercialization and narrow beauty standards, Tatjana has designed a program that prioritizes self-agency, evidence-based movement, and imperfection as part of the journey.
Meet lead teachers:
Katya Abramkina (she/her) is a certified Dynamic Mindfulness Yoga Teacher and Full Spectrum Doula based in Berlin. With over a decade of experience in yoga, she brings together mindful movement, movement science, and compassionate care in her teaching.
Her approach is inclusive and accessible, offering students space to explore self-care and embodied awareness in a way that respects individual needs and personal journeys.
Rijk Kruijer is a certified Dynamic Mindfulness Yoga Teacher, café owner, and trained electronic musician living and working between Berlin and the Uckermark. His work weaves together embodiment, presence, and community, with an emphasis on curiosity and deep listening—both in stillness and in movement.
During the summer months, he co-runs Alles Absicht, a seasonal café in Stolpe that serves as a small center for art, connection, and community life. Originally trained as an electronic musician, sound remains a quiet thread running through his work today.
