Embodied, Mindful Yoga in Northern New Jersey, New York City, and Online
Welcome. My name is Gernot Huber and I teach private and group yoga classes in northern New Jersey, New York City, and online. I also teach yoga workshops and trainings worldwide, and yoga retreats in the US, Europe, and Thailand. My unique approach to yoga focuses on wellbeing through the integration of biomechanics, mindfulness, and joy.
I make visible the connections between patterns of movement, alignment, and breath on the one hand, and our mental processes on the other. By focusing on the interconnections between the physical and mental dimensions of yoga, I help you create a more holistic practice that is both more beneficial and more enjoyable. With clarity, compassion, and humor, I make my teachings accessible to students of all levels, abilities, and ages.
To find out more about my approach to yoga, read a feature article published by Shut Up & Yoga. Or you can listen to an interview with me on The Embodiment Podcast.

It’s the Journey, Not the Destination
Yoga for most of us is a journey towards increased awareness and acceptance of the way things are. But letting go of our future-focused, goal-oriented mindset is a long journey. Experiencing a moment of full awareness in at least some yoga poses some of the time is a big step in the right direction. But when the poses themselves become mini-destinations along your path, you have reached an impasse on your [...]
Lengthen and Compress Your Spine
Back pain is one of the most common physical complaints people have. 80% of Americans complain of back pain at some point in their lives. Learning to stop overusing your spine (which we do to avoid having to stretch big hip and shoulder muscles) can help keep your spine safer. In addition, learning to lengthen and compress your spine intentionally and safely can improve the health of your spinal discs, [...]
