Dear all 🙏

I am excited to invite you to a Hatha Yoga class on Tuesday, 23 June, 19:00-20:15 in Stadspark (see location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/H6AMBUbnx7CZnrs26?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy). This outdoor class will be a chance to move, breathe, and connect with nature. We will begin with gentle movements to awaken the spine, followed by a progressive sequence of backbends, from milder heart openers to deeper extensions. Through mindful breathing and alignment, we will explore how to support the spine safely while expanding our range of motion. Towards the end of the session, we will work on the wheel pose (Urdhva Dhanurasana), refining stability, strength, and balance. Whether you are new to the wheel pose or deepening your practice, there will be guidance and variations for all levels.

Whether you are new to yoga or a dedicated practitioner, this class is for you. Please bring a yoga mat (or something to sit on if you prefer), comfortable clothing, and an open heart.

The class is donation-based, and your donation is what allows Grassroots to keep going ❤️ every little helps! However, we encourage your participation even if donation is not possible for you right now.

Hope to see many of you on Tuesday!

Namaste 🙏

Dear all 🌞

I am excited to invite you to a Hatha Yoga class on Tuesday, 26 May, 19:00-20:00 in the Martinikerkhof (https://maps.app.goo.gl/bZFbEz8HftNrV4t28). We will focus on asanas and exercises that stretch the hamstrings and glutes. We will also practice balancing poses, supporting each other, and perhaps experiment with chanting ‘Om’ while balancing, creating a serene ‘forest of trees’ effect. Towards the end of the session, we will build up to Sirsasana (Headstand)—working with stability, strength, and balance. Whether you are trying headstand for the first time or refining your practice, there will be guidance and variations for all levels.

Dear all 🙏

I am excited to invite you to a Hatha Yoga class on Sunday, 24 May, 11:00-12:30 in the Nieuwe Kerkhof park (https://maps.app.goo.gl/Nexug6VwjVhsHo5J7). This outdoor class will be a chance to move, breathe, and connect with nature. As we flow through our practice, we will root ourselves like the trees, let our breath move like the wind, and open our hearts to the warmth of the sun 🌳☀️

With each movement, we will tune into the earth beneath us, feeling its steady support. The rustling leaves and birdsong will guide us deeper into the present moment, reminding us to simply be. Through mindful breathwork and a balance of dynamic and grounding postures, we will cultivate both strength and stillness, allowing the body to soften and the mind to settle. We will close with a peaceful meditation under the open sky, fostering a deep sense of connection and calm.

Whether you are new to yoga or a dedicated practitioner, this class is for you. Please bring a yoga mat (or something to sit on if you prefer), comfortable clothing, and an open heart.

🥗 After the class, let’s stay for a picnic and enjoy some good company, fresh air, and nourishing food! Bring your own healthy snacks or lunch, and let’s take the time to relax, chat, and soak in the natural surroundings together.

Come join us for a session of movement, breath, and presence in nature—and stay to share food and good vibes 🍃✨

Namaste 🙏

Dear all 🙏

Join us for a Hatha-Iyengar inspired yoga class on Tuesday, 14 April, 19:00-20:00. In this session, we will begin with a few gentle and accessible exercises that can be done while sitting on a chair. These are practical movements that you can easily integrate into a 5-minute break during office work. Though simple, they are extremely beneficial for releasing tension, improving circulation, and maintaining spinal health. From there, we will continue using the chair as support to refine our posture in standing poses. Working with the chair allows us to develop greater stability, clarity in alignment, and deeper awareness of how the body organizes itself in space.

Please also bring a towel for hygiene purposes, as during the session you may need to place your head on the chair.
