When I first arrived in Bandung to be a teacher in Unpad for one half I found myself in a difficult, new situation. I did not speak the language, I did not know Indonesian culture and manners or with my blonde hair I looked different from everyone else. I was going to teach large classes in University and had never done it before. Soon it started to take courage to leave the house Because I Knew wherever I go: all eyes would be on me.Coming from Catholic Germany to Muslim Bandung I did not know how to behave right. I had practiced AshtangaYoga before but with Yoga Leaf it was my first time to practice Hatha Yoga. The teachers were very helpful; They gave me instructions in Indonesian English until I understood well enough. They were interested in my personal access and use of Yoga and taught me not only the poses but Also meditation and philosophy. My teachers were Ujie, Indri and Santi. Each of them Showed me a different aspect of my new yoga practice. Ujie taught me how to meditate in a very easy way and her constantly changing classes Gave me many inspirations for my individual practice at home. Also she was the one to ask about questions of philosophy. Indris class helped me Become aware of my emotions and control them. Santis class was especially useful for me: each time I took her class I Seemed to grow a little taller, a little more confident and proud. I learned to hold my head high. My better body posture helped me get through difficult, situations with pride and a smile on my face. Through time not only yoga practice Grew Easier but all aspects of my life Seemed more successful. I made ​​great progress in swimming and surfing. I felt less afternoon after traveling long. And after four months in Bandung Achieved I had a lot of things: After being a student myself I now taught large groups of students in Unpad, I spoke Indonesian, found my way of traveling alone through Bandung and Indonesia. I still did not know how to behave in an Indonesian way most of the time but a friendly and confident attitude had mostly proved successful in all situations. I had gone through culture shock, heartbreak, disease and overcrowdedangkots with a deep breath and a smile. I felt strong and proud and happy. Now that I do not live in Bandung any more I still use the practice I learned at the Yoga Leaf daily. Even in my home Germany, where I look like everyone else, I speak the language and I do know how to behave right: life is Easier with a strong body and a mind at ease.
