Happy holidays!
In the final days of 2024, a short message from the Amsterdamsestraatweg: we wish you peace, health and lihht for 2025. Our classes are not just for you, but mainly because of you! You – curious, motivated and open-minded people – are thesource of inspiration for our classes. Elke les krijgt vorm door jullie energie of vragen. En daar zijn we ontzettend dankbaar voor!
We look forward to a new year full of shared moments on the mat. See below for some possibilities to meet, such as a new community class on Sundays. Also, Nadège will start teaching on Tuesday evenings and she will teach a masterclass at the end of January.
But cannot afford it? Because they are students, single parents, or out of a job or any other reason… Especially in those times yoga can be of added value. We have options for adjusted pricing.. Really. Neem contact op.
Or you can point them towards our Community Classes. Lessen op donatiebasis, door leraren in opleiding.
Despoina teaches on Thursdays, and from 12 January Loraine teaches on Sundays (at least until Eeke returns from India).
You can sign in for the classes via Momoyoga and after the class you receive an open payment link for a donation. Of course you can also join if you have a ongoing subscription!
Backbends keep your brain active, your spine flexible and your heart healthy. In this masterclass you can delve deeply into the world of backbends and explore their transformative power. We think this can be an excellent start to the new year, so sign up quickly for this masterclass. This can also be an excellent chance to meet Nadège – she has been subbing for Hiske when she was recovering, and we’re happy that she will start teaching a regular class from January onwards, on Tuesdays at 17.30.
If backbends are not (yet!) your favorite poses, trust that this can change. During the masterclass, Nadège will provide you with insight and props that can make bending backwards a safe and new sensation.
That Sunday afternoon between Christmas and New Year? After the speculaas, chocoladeletters, pepernoten and borstplaat of Sinterklaas… not to mention the kerstkransjes, kerstborrels and christmas dinners? You might want to reconnect with your body through an invigorating Iyengar yoga workshop with Francesca Thompson.
This is the perfect chance to restore balance and refresh your energy with a practice centered around twists and arm balances. Builds core strength, improves focus, and creates a sense of balance and stability in both body and mind. What more do you want?

Do you know Nakrasana? It means crocodile pose. And it involves a bit of jumping around. Tally is already working on ways to help you leap into the light of spring! In the last weekend of february, she will come to Utrecht to guide you into the joy of ‘ jumping asanas’.
Tally’s playful approach will help you discover dynamic series of poses with curiosity and lightness. But don’t worry, there will be plenty of time for rest, too. Expect to be challenged – within your limits! Take a leap of faith and sign up here. Meanwhile you can of course join her classes on Zoom.
