Uta’s path started, like so many spiritual paths, through tragedy.
Suddenly and without any warning, her father got killed when she was only 15 years old.
The impact of such an event was a life changing experience for her and opened her up to the world of grief and loss and having to learn how to cope with these intense feelings of terror and helplessness.
Deeply affected by the reality of this initiation, she wanted answers to life and death and it set the tone and course of her life. While she still needed to pay her bills and work different jobs at times, she was hungry for deeper understanding and wisdom that comes only through living life on the edge. It was those experiences that shaped her life’s path and world views more than anything.
Any opportunity she got to dive deeper into oriental wisdom, she would take.
As a student and learner she eventually came across the Barbara Brennan School of Healing and she trained between 2003 and 2007 with the renowned Barbara Brennan herself.
In 2012 Uta moved with her two children to Bali/Indonesia, wanting to raise them in a free, warm and spiritual environment.
Whilst living in Bali, she kept teaching Yoga to adults and children and saw clients in her Healing Practice.
In 2020 Uta started the two year advanced studies training at the Barbara Brennan School, followed by a year of Teacher Training in Sydney/Australia, where she teaches to the current moment.
Uta sees client online and in person and across the globe. She momentarily lives, teaches and practices between Spain/Switzerland/Bali and Australia
“the greatest service we can do for society, humanity and the future of our Ourselves, is to enter the path of self liberation.”
