Apollonia Holzer
I grew up on a farm in Austria with seven siblings. Living close to nature shaped my sensitivity to the rhythms of life. From an early age, I was drawn to exploring the physical and nonphysical body and its influence on the mind. I find beauty in the natural ease and order of being, and in the gentle dialogue between active and receptive forces in nature and in all relationships.
At nineteen, I joined the Don Bosco convent in search of a deeper meaning in life and a fuller understanding of being. During this time, I worked as a social educator with children and adults in education and the performing arts. Later, my training in the Rosalia Chladek® dance technique opened the door to an inspiring and expansive world of movement.
After fourteen years, I left the convent and moved to New York. I studied a wide range of dance techniques, somatic movement, anatomy, Pilates, and Gyrotonic/Kinesis®. I also expanded my knowledge through therapeutic training in Shiatsu, Craniosacral Therapy, Pranic Healing, and other healing modalities. Training in Systemic Constellation Work and as a Transformational Coach further enriched my work, supporting clients through profound and transformative change.
Throughout my life, I have been guided by a search for deeper understanding, presence, and purpose. I experience it as my calling to touch lives through my knowledge, wisdom, and artistic work—and through the simple acts of seeing, listening, and being.
