As a child I remember my mother practicing yoga with friends at home
and this book with photos of an Indian guy in a loincloth doing all
these weird poses. Later on when I was in high-school we had some yoga
classes for a while.
Around 2006 I started practicing ‘seriously’. I found my
teacher, Anat Geiger, and from 1-2 classes a week it slowly turned to 4
classes a week. I was reconnecting to my body and discovering that the
physical practice is a doorway to deeper layers. This brought me to take
a teacher training in 2013 with the wish to go deeper into the practice
and learn more.
I followed the Yin 200h training, Vinyasa 200h training
and an advanced Vinyasa training, all with Anat Geiger and Marcel van de
Vis Heil. These days I also assist my teachers in their teacher
training programs.
I teach both Yin and Vinyasa classes and often combining
them both in Yin/Yang classes. I love the play between the two – action
and stillness, strength and softness, movement and calm.
In Studio Veerkracht I offer 2 weekly classes, one Yang
(Vinyasa) and one Yin which can also be taken as one extra long Yin/Yang
class.
