DISCOVER THE TREASURE OF YOGA
Yoga is far more than a physical practice. It is a treasure developed over thousands of years, shaped by different traditions, philosophies and experiences. At Yogagold, we bring selected elements together in creative yoga classes that move body and mind and accompany you on your own journey.
YOGATEACHERS IN ZURICH
SUSEN VERONICA
Susen Veronica is a yoga and meditation teacher and co-founder of Yogagold in Zurich. For more than ten years, she has been teaching yoga and meditation in Switzerland and internationally. Her classes combine in-depth knowledge of different yoga traditions with creativity, joy and a keen sense of the people she teaches.
For more than 20 years, she has maintained her own yoga practice and completed over 3,000 hours of training in different yoga traditions, meditation and philosophy. Her teaching is influenced by Jivamukti Yoga, Kundalini Yoga and Yin Yoga, among others. She brings this knowledge together in her Creative Yoga, creating varied and carefully designed classes with the aim of making yoga feel alive, relevant and personally meaningful.
For Susen, yoga is about more than the physical practice. It is a path towards greater awareness, self-reflection and connection with ourselves and with others. Music, meditation, pranayama, philosophical impulses and unexpected elements can be as much a part of her classes as powerful asanas and quiet sequences.
No two classes are the same. Susen creates her yoga classes anew each time, selecting the right “gold nuggets” from her knowledge and experience. Sometimes calm and meditative, sometimes powerful, creative or with a good dose of humour. Alongside her regular classes, she also creates special formats and workshops, ranging from Laughter Yoga to yoga accompanied by live music.
For her, yoga is not something that ends when you step off the mat. It can have an impact on how we live and on the world around us. For WWF, she developed the signature class «Yoga for Biodiversity», which put species conservation at the heart of yoga practice in more than 500 yoga studios across Germany.
Susen’s experience as a yoga teacher extends far beyond Zurich. She has taught in Switzerland, Germany, Spain, Italy, Mexico and India, as well as in Bali and Lombok. Today, she teaches regularly at Yogalives, Soulspace Wiedikon and the ADC Galerie in Zurich. She also creates Yogagold’s own classes, workshops and special yoga experiences and shares her experience and knowledge at selected yoga festivals in Switzerland and abroad.
Susen teaches in English and German. Most of her classes are taught in English.

ANDY LUSTI
Andy Lusti is a yoga teacher and co-founder of Yogagold in Zurich. His teaching combines calm and mindfulness with a curiosity for different yoga traditions and techniques. He places great importance on experiencing yoga consciously, understanding the practice and reconnecting with yourself.
Andy’s path to yoga began from a very different direction. Sport, performance and competition shaped his younger years, particularly through ice hockey and snowboarding, and later also his work as a Creative Director. For a long time, he found balance in adrenaline and in the solitude of his beloved mountains. With yoga, he discovered a different kind of intensity: stillness, concentration and a deeper connection with himself.
Andy initially began his first yoga teacher training out of curiosity about the philosophy and deeper foundations of yoga. This led to numerous further trainings and an ongoing desire to keep learning and exploring. As a certified Master of Yoga and Yin Yoga teacher, he combines classical yoga traditions with meditation and different techniques that he continues to explore and integrate into his teaching.
His classes are characterized by calm and mindfulness. Andy places great importance on experiencing asanas consciously and understanding them in greater depth. His calm, meditative voice helps students leave the stresses of everyday life behind for a moment and reconnect with themselves.
As co-founder of Yogagold, Andy has been teaching for several years in Switzerland and internationally, including Germany, Austria and India. Together with Susen Veronica, he also develops and teaches selected Yogagold formats in Zurich, in companies and hotels, and at special locations.
Andy teaches in German and English.
