Bio

For over ten years, Toni has been running the Mattenfreunde Yoga-Studio in Cologne-Sülz with great dedication. His background includes extensive training in various yoga traditions such as Hatha, Vinyasa, Kundalini, and Yin Yoga, completed in Germany and abroad.

For more than twenty years, Toni has been on a deep spiritual path, spending time in ashrams and Buddhist monasteries. In 2023, he began a heartfelt chapter of his journey by training as an integrative breathwork therapist with the renowned Binnie A. Dansby. Traveling to Estonia and the United Kingdom was a natural choice for him, as he recognized the rare opportunity to be part of her very last training cohort after 45 years of teaching. This unique experience allowed Toni to immerse himself deeply in the practice of conscious connected breathing and to personally experience its profound transformative power.

Today, Toni supports people with sensitivity and presence through breathwork sessions, meditations, guided inner journeys, deepening processes, and group sharing. His work is especially dedicated to seniors, families, couples, as well as people facing serious illness and their loved ones. Rooted in his own life experience, healing, and transformation, Toni feels a strong inner calling to accompany others on their personal path. This calling has evolved into his heart-centered work — a lived invitation to experience breath as a gateway to self-awareness, healing, and inner transformation.

From the bottom of his heart, Toni is deeply grateful and excited to offer the breathwork series Coming Home in Love together with Binnie A. Dansby at his studio, starting in March 2026. This series represents a meaningful continuation of his path and a profound invitation to come home to the wisdom of the breath.
