From early childhood Clarissa has lived around the world, spending the last fifteen years in India. She has explored varied spiritual traditions, working with several teachers. In the early years, the focus was on Sufi, Buddhist and Dzogchen teachings. Later on Yoga and Vipasana meditation have become the main practice. Her inner journey really took off when she started practicing Yoga, and met her teacher Mansoor, with whom she has been working closely for the last ten years. Clarissa teaches Yoga in India and in Europe and is currently based between Brighton and Rishikesh. |
