Join me this Sunday 7th September from 12:00-13.15 for a slow flow yoga class on the grass at Nieuwe Kerkhof (a beautiful church garden just outside the city center, where Grassroots Yoga was born!)

We will meet under the trees on the right side of the church if you are facing it from Nieuwe Boteringestraat (I will post a map location closer to the time).

In this practice we will begin with breathwork (pranayama) to energize the body, before a movement practice focused on the heart space ❤️ we will close with a long savasana under the trees 🌳

This class is suitable for all regardless of yoga experience, we welcome beginners and dedicated practitioners alike. The class is donation based, via cash or tikkie, and your donation is what allows Grassroots to keep going ❤️ every little helps!

Dear yoga friends!

This Sunday 24th August at Nieuwe Sint Jansstraat 35 we have two classes to share with you 🙏

📍9:00 – 10:00 Christa will share a special workshop about Kriya.
📍11:00 – 12:15 Yin yoga with Saoirse

✨Kriya workshop with Christa ✨
This workshop is about different cleansing techniques of the body. Actions that are happening off the mat. There will be some explanation about different cleansing techniques. And one of them, we will explore together and is called Uddiyana Kriya – it’s a cleansing technique that aims to purify the body and mind through controlled breathing and abdominal manipulation. When participating in this workshop, make sure you come with a empty stomach. But feel free to bring some breakfast for after class.

✨ Yin with Saoirse ✨
Join me at 11 for a relaxed yin practice. We will use many props and slow, gentle movement to gently stretch the deep tissues of the body to promote healing, rest and recovery 🙏

What you’ll need for these classes; comfortable clothes to move in, a yoga mat, a towel to cover your bolster. I invite you to arrive 10 minutes early to set up your space and we can all start together at 9 o’clock.

This class is suitable for all regardless of yoga experience, we welcome beginners and dedicated practitioners alike. The class is donation based, via cash or tikkie, and your donation supports the growth of our community. But also to retain the yoga space that we have now at the Nieuwe Sint Jansstraat. However, we encourage your participation even if donation is not possible for you right now.

And please invite anybody that could benefit from yoga to join this class.

We hope to see many of you on Sunday!

Namaste ✨
Christa and Saoirse

We’ll meet under the trees on the right side of the church if you are facing it from Nieuwe Boteringestraat (I will post a map location closer to the time) ✨

In Sunday’s class we learned a little bit about how figures in hindu cosmology can inspire our yoga practice, and we heard a story about the goddess Kali. In this class, we’ll continue our goddess theme, and I’ll share some thoughts on another manifestation of Shakti, the mother goddess Durga. Durga is associated with courage, creativity, power, integrity and inner calm. We will explore these themes in our meditation, breathwork and movement practice 🙏

In this class we’ll practice a goddess-inspired yoga sequence, and I will share some thoughts about Kali – the hindu goddess (or divine feminine figure) associated with death, change and creativity. We’ll engage our inner fire with a warming breathwork (pranayama), and then move into a flowy and strong movement practice. Come along, and bring a friend!
