Meet Your Teacher
Federico has been teaching yoga for over 20 years. His passion for this discipline led him to travel extensively and dedicate himself fully to the study of yoga, living at the Bihar School of Yoga Ashram in India, the most renowned institution for classical yoga studies, where he completed his training and obtained a Diploma in Yogic Studies.
In addition to his deep training in yoga, Federico has studied Ayurveda, yoga philosophy and history, yoga psychology, meditation, and the therapeutic aspects of yoga. He has practiced under and learned directly from great teachers who transmit yoga authentically, rooted in its traditional lineage.
Since 2012, Federico has managed LOTOS Yoga Berlin and has served as the lead teacher at LOTOS Yoga Academy. Together with a team of expert teachers, he has trained over 500 yoga teachers, many of whom are now part of a strong international community, teaching yoga in Berlin and around the world.
Frequently Asked Questions

No, you don’t need previous yoga experience. The course is designed to build your knowledge and practice from the ground up. During the training, you will discover that there are many ways to be a yoga teacher. We will work with you to find your own teaching style, focusing on your potential and building your self-confidence.
-
Our training is not limited to one single style. You will learn to offer a variety of classes, adapting your teaching to your students’ needs. This includes dynamic and energetic classes as well as slower, more restorative practices. You will also learn to guide meditation, breathing exercises, and pranayama, and to offer alternative practices for people with injuries or physical conditions such as pregnancy, knee issues, high blood pressure, herniated discs, and more.
-
The course runs for 5 months, meeting one weekend per month on Saturday and Sunday from 9 AM to 6 PM. Each day includes a one-hour lunch break and shorter breaks for snacks, drinks, and connecting with your classmates. In addition, we have one Academy Class per week, focusing on feedback rounds and professional aspects of teaching yoga. You can join this class in the studio, follow it live online, or watch the recording later through our Online Academy. We also offer Tutorial Classes, providing space to clarify theoretical topics, ask questions, and deepen your understanding of the course content.

Yes. Because we meet only one weekend per month, it is absolutely possible to complete the training alongside your job. These weekends are designed to recharge you – a time to learn, grow, and destress. If you’re busy, you can always catch up online through our Online Academy, where all classes, resources, and presentations are uploaded.
-
No problem. All classes from the weekends are recorded and uploaded to our Online Academy. You can watch them at your convenience, along with all presentations, homework, and resources, so you won’t miss anything.

At the end of each weekend, you will review the material covered and take short quizzes to test your knowledge. These quizzes will serve as your theoretical assessment for the course. There is no need to worry, as any questions you have can be clarified during the monthly Tutorial Classes. This ensures that if there is anything you do not understand, you will have the opportunity to review it thoroughly with your teachers.
