Her first yoga practice was Raya yoga in 2003. In between she moved from yoga to emotional bodywork. In 2010 she practiced yoga again. Her introduction to Kundalini Yoga was in 2010 in India during a Deepening course at the Oneness University. From then on she chose Kundalini yoga. Now practicing at Middenweg in Meppel.
Jeannette (Johanna Henriëtte) Kommer was born on 22nd December in Penrith, Australia. Her sannyasin name is Mohani with the sun in Sagittarius, moon in Scorpio and ascendant in Capricorn.
At the age of 10 she moved with her family to Holland. For a very long time she felt alienated, not knowing who she was or where she belonged. This feeling was a mixture between homesickness and a strange, nostalgic feeling that she could not place.

Australia
Jeannette or Mohani was born on December 22nd, 1962 in Penrith, Australia.
This continent is steeped in the stories of the mystical Aboriginals about "the Dreamtime".
These elements are consciously and unconsciously interwoven in her life and oeuvre in which she tries to depict a great desire and sometimes nostalgia.
Perhaps not so much a homesickness for Australia, but rather for a world that Mohani knows it exists.
Art Academy
Mohani:
"My fascination for repetition of (geometric) patterns started to develop in the beginning of the Art Academy Minerva in Groningen."
"Gradually my work became more organic and I let go of the 'tight order'."
"My paintings became smoother and transparant. However, 'Order&Chaos' will somehow keep on interfering with the painting process."
