Raised north of Copenhagen, Denmark, Victor Plank Harms grew up in the 90s watching a lot of American TV (like, a LOT! Maybe it was not that bad for kids back then?), finding escape in Spider Man’s acrobatic moves saving the city from its anxieties.

​

This may explain why he became obsessed with climbing the façade of his childhood home, which led his mom to sign him up for kids’ acrobatics class. That same energy (or restlessness?) would eventually swing him across the Atlantic to New York City (where Spider Man allegedly lives) to pursue a career in television.

​

Today, as a TV showrunner and lifelong student of yoga, he finds his favorite form of storytelling on the mat, especially in an overheated room with New York strangers who quickly turn into friends.

​

Victor is a 200 hour certified yoga teacher through Modo Yoga (Canada). With over 15 years of yoga practice, his athletic background is rooted in competitive handball in Europe, calisthenics, TRX, CrossFit, Pilates, reformer, and running.

​

Off the mat, his work as a writer, director, and producer has taken him across North and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Arctic, with credits spanning HBO to Danish public TV.​

​

He teaches private Hatha and Vinyasa classes in English and Danish, and his German, Norwegian, and Swedish are perfect for front desk small talk.

​

​Lives in Williamsburg, but his bike gets him all over town in no time.

P.S. This is the first bio Victor has ever written about himself in the third person.
