Pippa Moss
YOGA TEACHER & FREEDIVER
Pippa has been exploring movement for many years, having trained as a dancer, as well as becoming competent at capoeira, and even trying her hand at parkour. She has deep roots and innate knowledge in movement. Pippa left her corporate job in 2014 and never looked back. An office job was not for her! Since her first yoga teacher training with Simon Low in 2015, Pippa has continued to deepen her studies at in person trainings with Dr. Paul Dallaghan, Sri O. P. Tiwari, Donna Farhi, Doug Keller, among others. She has been teaching internationally since 2018.
Pippa loves helping people to reconnect to a freedom of movement and breath using up to date scientific and anatomical principals and believes that a dedicated and sincere practice can lead to spiritual revelations and peace of mind. Her classes will lead you through an intelligently sequenced practice combining traditional yoga asana alongside modern movement techniques, informed by sound anatomical and biomechanical knowledge.
She also loves to freedive, a sport which combines breathwork and meditation in a way that intimately connects you to yourself and the ocean. One day she hopes to bring this to a Peaceful Warriors Retreat. Watch this space!
Anthony Heilmann
STUNTMAN & SHIATSU THERAPIST
Anthony is a professional stunt man, a volunteer firefighter, a kung fu black belt, a shiatsu masseuse, a qualified Oxygen Advantage Coach, and an all-round mover! He has a regular movement practice which includes yoga, martial arts, and natural movement. Yet none of these things define him.
Anthony is a human with deep compassion, and a passion for learning and helping others. Nature is his way, believing in power over force.
He loves to use the great outdoors as his gym and is passionate about helping you to connect movement practices to nature, challenge your limits, and have fun!

Veronika Pongracz
YOGA TEACHER & SOUND THERAPIST
Veronika is passionate about sound and music and brings this to our events in the form of gong baths and music therapy. Following 12 years of classical piano training, she discovered Tibetan signing bowls, gongs, and other therapeutic instruments. She now teaches workshops and regular classes in London.
Veronika is an avid traveller and has taken opportunities to train with many well-respected teachers around the world. As well as specialising in sound-based practices, she also delved deeper into mindfulness-based meditation practices and yoga nidra (sleep meditation). She found these practices particularly useful in her own life and now enjoys integrating these tools into her classes to share the benefits with others.
