Maître Gyu Ji Igelnick
 

Ingrid Igelnick was initiated into Zen and met Master Deshimaru in 1978. In 1984, she was ordained as a zen nun by Master Kosen, from whom she also received the Shiho transmission in 2015.

At the same time, she trained in shiatsu (Zen massage) and set up Soi-Zen, a kimono and kolomo workshop.

She has been practising with her Master since 1992 and assists him in his mission. She has been leading sesshines for many years and also teaches sewing of the Kesa.
