I always customize every workshop I give, and I offer many types of Yoga for Musicians workshops, depending on the group, venue and occation. It can be all from a more lecture style workshop with normal clothes and everyone sitting on chairs or standing, to a real work out session with gym outfit, yoga mats – and everything in between that.
I am trained in both physical yoga, yin yoga, minfulness, meditation, breathing techniques, mental training and coaching and I mix all these techniques in my workshops. Depending on the group and what they want and need.
My teaching style is relaxed, fun and genuine and I don’t make any religious references – only music references!
I adjust and can give several variations of the poses, so all levels from beginner to advanced can be in the same workshop.
We thanks Paxman for the support of this masterclass !
It’s a luxury to have a yoga teacher who understands musicians and their lifestyles.
I take Lene with me on my travels in the form of short, helpful yoga videos she has custom-made for me that
make me move (and smile) in various hotel rooms around the world. Thank you, Lene!

Working with Lene is getting to know yourself much better. She makes you understand, in a very special way, how your body and soul are one with the musician you are. I learned things from her that I now use daily and that improve my playing and my life in general.
David Rejano / Principal Trombone, Los Angeles Philharmonic / Professor of Trombone, Colburn Conservatory / USA
I use Lene’s yoga and breathing exercises in my daily musical life and recommend them to everyone. They help me a lot to concentrate and feel comfortable with my body and mind and I am very happy to know these exercises!
Andre Schoch / Berlin Philharmonic Trumpet / Prof. Mannheim Musikhochschule / Germany
I am very grateful for everything Lene has taught me. She has given me the tools I need to get the best out of myself and my performances. Lene was very important to me when I won the audition for my job this year.
Working with her gave me a boost of self-confidence, positive energy and the possibility to completely relax when I needed it”
Jannicke Ellingsen / Euphonuim, Norwegian Army Band
Since I met Lene, I have been integrating different breathing and stretching exercises from her into my daily practice
and I feel much better playing the oboe!

I met Lene at the Chilean Horn Meeting, and I immediately realized that she had totally different tools. Working with her for three months made me feel much more powerful both in body and mind, which I have
managed to convey in every piece of music I present.
Sebastian Villegas / Metropolitan Wind Quintet, Chile
I had a concert with my band and between hours of traveling and carrying heavy things, I got a strong pain in my lower back that made it almost impossible for me to even sit on my drum stool and play.
Luckily there I met Lene, who was my hero that day and gave me great and easy-to-understand exercises.
In 10 minutes she helped me not only save the concert, but also felt much better the next day.
Cristian Betancourt / Percussionist, Los Pitutos
Doing yoga with Lene is relaxing, with immediate effect. She understands the needs and difficulties of musicians and conductors.
