Please note: There will be no yoga class on Sunday, 3 August, as we will be away celebrating four beautiful years of our community with a special Yoga Camping Trip in nature!
Thank you for your understanding – we will be back the following week, refreshed and full of wildflowers and inspiration.
Namaste 🙏
Angelos, Christa, Saoirse

Yin Yang is a yoga style where we play with the energies of the sun and the moon. In the first half of the class, we will practice breathwork (pranayama), before moving through a dynamic pose (asana) sequence to build some heat/energy/☀️ in the body. In the second part of the class, we transition to a slow, gentle yin practice. Here we use long pose holds to gently stretch the muscles and connective tissues, while our mind gets a chance to rest and reset 🌑. We will close will a restorative savansana and meditation.
This class is suitable for all, regardless of yoga experience. For this class you need your yoga mat, and if you have them, two yoga blocks (otherwise we have some at the space for you to use). You are welcome to bring extra blankets/pillows for your yin practice if you would like.

Good afternoon yoga friends! Join me this Sunday 18th May from 11.00-12.30 for an all-levels yoga class at Nieuwe Sint Jansstraat 35.
In this class we will practice in a ‘slow flow’ style – this means we will link together poses and flow through them with the breath, but at a slower pace than in a traditional Ashtanga Vinyasa class. The theme of our class will be ‘root & rhythm’ – building stability and integrity in the lower body to create a foundation for flow and freedom in the upper body 🙂
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 donations enable us to pay our rent and keep our community going 🙏However, we encourage your participation even if donation is not possible for you right now.
Please arrive a few minutes early to set up, so that we can start at 11:00 together. You are welcome in the space anytime from 10:40 to relax in silence, meditate or drink some tea before the class.

Good morning yoga friends! This coming Sunday 16th March, from 11.00-12.30, at Nieuwe Sint Jansstraat 35, you are invited to join me for a juicy 90 minute Yin Yang yoga class 🌕☀️
Yin Yang is a yoga style where we play with the energies of the sun and the moon (full moon on Friday ;)). In the first half of the class, we will practice warming pranayama and move through a dynamic asana sequence to build some heat/energy/Yang in the body. In the second part of the class, we practice Yin postures. In Yin, we invite our bodies to fully rest by consciously releasing our muscles using our breath, while gravity gently stretches us.
We close our practice with a long savasana (corpse pose) to allow our yin/yang energies to integrate 🌝🌚
This class is suitable for all, regardless of yoga experience, and I invite you to bring friends if you would like. Tea will be available 🍵 for this class you need your yoga mat, and if you have them, two yoga blocks (otherwise we have some at the space for you to use). You are welcome to bring extra blankets/pillows for your yin practice if you would like.
Please arrive a few minutes early to set up if possible, so that we can start at 11:00 together. You are welcome in the space anytime from 10:40 to relax in silence, meditate or drink some tea before the class
