Heidi has been teaching me for 6 years and I have loved every single class. Her teaching is like no other, offering a perfect mix of grace and grit. Because she has a deep understanding of the body, her cues are worded and timed just right, getting us to reach our edge while cultivating a healthy "respect your limits" inner voice. A 90 minute class flies by thanks to Heidi's unique ability to balance predictable repetitions (get ready to hold that half moon!) that let you lose yourself in the flow, and creative new sequences that keep you in a state of discovery.

What people say
Alex, student at Yoga Moves Nyon
Heidi is THE reason I went from “I’ll try one class” to showing up at least three times a week. As a complete beginner, I couldn’t have asked for a better first teacher — she took me under her wing, kept it fun, and somehow made challenging feel addictive. Heidi spots every movement, offers just-right adjustments, and cheers you on before, during, and after class. The result? Real physical strength, mental clarity, and a practice I genuinely LOVE. Heidi is a consummate professional and her warmth, humour, and genuine care for each individual set her apart - she doesn’t just teach yoga to an incredibly high standard, she changes lives.

Heidi has been my yoga teacher for well over a decade, and she is truly talented and inspiring. A former professional ballet dancer, she has an exceptional understanding of physical structure and movement mechanics. She is uniquely gifted at guiding students with precision and genuine encouragement - one is clearly in the hands of a consummate professional.
Over ten years of practice with her, I have moved through periods of varying focus. I have always felt both supported and challenged. She is beautiful and graceful on and off the mat.

I just want to say how much we enjoyed the week at La Serrania - (for the second time)!
You both made us feel very welcome, and your attentiveness, tolerance, compassion and the sense of freedom you induced made a lasting impression.
You are both such lovely ladies in every sense - a real pleasure to be with. You have given us wonderful memories of our long languorous days, luxuriating in the Mallorcan wilderness, stretching our bodies and minds in such congenial company. It was Absolutely Fabulous !!
Thank you again!

When I first moved back to Zurich, I checked out different yoga studios.
The turning point was Heidi Ulrich’s class at BodyArt, which made me decide to join that studio. I am now in my third year of attending classes by Miss Ulrich. Her teaching, her knowledge and experience in various yoga styles is something else…
Her ability to motivate the class by her teaching and guidance, by helping and correcting us and by conveying her profound knowledge of yoga and its meaning far beyond the aspects of exercise and yoga poses are very special. Heidi Ulrich’s sense of humour which she includes in her teaching is just so refreshing and inspiring.
She brings people and students together at BodyArt classes, but very much also during her amazing yoga retreats. I was fortunate to join Heidi Ulrich and her yoga partners from YogaMoves in Nyon to her last year’s winter retreat in Adelboden followed by a spring yoga retreat in Mallorca.
On both occasions we were completely different groups, but the enjoyment and the sense of belonging were equally great, all this along fantastic, passionate teaching by Ms. Ulrich and her yoga partners. The spirit, no doubt, was instilled by Heidi Ulrich and her partner’s efforts. The energizing morning classes and the relaxed evening routines and rituals were well thought through by Ms. Ulrich.
I can only recommend anyone to Heidi Ulrich’s classes - I feel very fortunate to be part of her group. She makes a real difference in my life.

I have had the pleasure of attending two of Heidi’s yoga retreats in Mallorca, and both experiences have been truly wonderful.
Heidi creates such a welcoming, calm and supportive environment where everyone feels included, whatever their level of yoga experience. Her teaching is thoughtful, intuitive and inspiring — she guides you with expertise while encouraging you to listen to your own body.
The combination of beautiful surroundings, mindful movement, relaxation and Heidi’s genuine care made these retreats something very special. I came away feeling stronger, more balanced and completely recharged.
Heidi has a rare ability to create a sense of community as well as a deeper connection to yoga. I would wholeheartedly recommend her retreats to anyone looking for a meaningful and restorative experience

Heidi is simply outstanding! She brings warmth, humour, and a thoughtful spiritual touch to every class, and no two sessions are ever the same. Her gift for adapting seamlessly to all levels, from total beginners to advanced yogis, is rare, makes you feel good and is truly enjoyable. After several years with her, the progress I've humbly made in balance and flexibility speaks for itself.
