Being trained, touched and inspired by different traditions and styles in yoga, I provide various classes in order both to share the beauty of yoga and to express my personal attitude and emotions which every tradition gives me.
Usually the class begins with a centering (short meditation techniques which bring the students into the space and the practice), followed by a simple warm-up to promote safe practice and healthy joints. 
The practice includes Sun or other creative Salutations – a sequence of yoga poses performed and intended to improve the strength and flexibility of the body, followed by a variety of asanas - standing, sitting, lying and inversions, breathing techniques (pranayama) which depend of the focus of the practice. The class ends in shavasana - a restorative asana that is a key component of yoga and relaxation. 
Of course the structure could be different according to the focus of the class, its purpose or just for fun, to practice non-attachment.
All the classes described below could be provided like public (group) classes, private classes or corporate classes.
Public/group classes
I have been giving public/group in different locations all over Amsterdam. The prices vary per studio/location. You can find more information about my public classes, their pricing and my schedule here.
Private classes
Private classes (one-on-one) are available upon request. I would love to have a prior (and free of charge) conversation with you to define your goals, issues or just to spend a little time with you (it would help me to design your class better).  
Price: 65 Euro (60 min.), VAT incl. ​
​You can book your private class here.
Corporate classes
If you are interested in practicing yoga along with your collegues, in your office, then corporate yoga is for you. The classes could be custumized to your availibility and daily schedule.

Hatha yoga/Yoga basics

The term “hatha yoga” technically encompasses all of the lineages listed here. Hatha yoga was introduced by Yogi Swatmarama and the translation relates to sun and moon (“ha” – sun & “tha” – moon). The practice is focused around uniting pairs of opposites, the positive and negative, the yin and the yang.
Hatha is great for beginners, practitioners working on their alignment, or for pairing the breath with movement. The pace is slow and systematic allowing yogis of all levels to go deeper, reduce stress, gain flexibility & strength, and go inward.
* less intensive, slower pace, beginners friendly

Slow/Gentle flow yoga and Hatha flow yoga

The Hatha/Slow Flow yoga class provides an unique sequencing to promote a easy and medium-paced, and the same time relaxing experience. The class incorporates all aspects of a traditional Hatha yoga class – breath, awareness and postures, while challenging your coordination through movement.
The Hatha/Slow Flow yoga class is a meditative flow that practices slowing down by using a slow steady breath, holding postures, transitioning smoothly, and opening gently and mindfully with the ability to move deeper into one's body and self. 
* gentle, dynamic with slower pace, beginners friendly

Vinyasa flow yoga

“The idea of vinyasa, begin from where you are,
go to a point, and come back to where you have to be.”
T.K.V. Desikachar
Vinyasa is a rhythm, vinyasa is the pulse of life.
Vinyasa describes this beautiful sequential order of actions that progress according to the rhythms in nature. That is, the organic energy of vinyasa proceeds from the beginning, through the middle and to the end. Any sequence in life can evoke the qualities of vinyasa when we honor these cyclical rhythms. In the context of Vinyasa Yoga, both on and off the mat, these rhythms are:
  • Shrishti (emanation): the creative energy of beginnings and sets the foundation upon which to build any sequence of actions.  This is the ability to observe and evaluate where we are at any given moment. Only then can we proceed in the way that best suits our needs, considering where we are starting from and the desired end result.
  • Sthiti (maintenance): After the process of building, this is the peak of any sequence, the fullest expression of actions. This phase of the cycle yields the sustaining energy that promotes growth and continuous expansion beyond the present cycle. 
  • Samhara (resorption): Completion is perhaps the most important rhythm in vinyasa and it is often the easiest to forget. In a culture of urgency, time scarcity and chronic hurry, we often neglect the skillful completion of tasks because we are too eager to move on. By honoring the completing energy of vinyasa, we retain what we need to support and integrate subsequent actions, before we start the next cycle. 
Vinyasa flow yoga as an asana practice involves flowing from one pose to the next with fluidity, rhythm and pulse.  It requires us to coordinate the breath with a movement, and emphasises on creating a flow of postures, with smooth transitions from one to the next. Vinyasa is connection - we need to connect your movements with the breath in each and every movement - from the awakening to the end in Shavasana.
Vinyasa is practice affordable for everybody and for every body. 
* intensive, dynamic, active, all level of experience friendly

Core/Strong vinyasa flow and Power yoga

​It’s a vinyasa class… with some extra benefits and one goal: tightening and strengthening the core and the back. We will work on finding a support and the strength of our deep core muscles through asanas and breathing techniques – expect a lot of high, low, side and dynamic planks, chaturangas, boat and chair poses, back bends, arm balances and a lot of breath work! 
A guided relaxation in the end of the class will follow.
It’s going to be challenging and energizing, it’s going to be hard work and a lot of fun!
* dynamic, intensive, active, not suitable for beginners

​Ashtanga vinyasa yoga (basics)

​Ashtanga yoga, sometimes referred to as Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga, is a style of yoga that was developed by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and T. Krishnamacharya in the 20th century. Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic, flowing style that connects the movement of the body with the breath. The Ashtanga Primary series contents Surya Namaskar A and B, standing sequence, sitting sequence and finishing sequence (backbends and inversions). The sequence of the postures is always the same.
The difference between Ashtanga class for beginners and a regular Ashtanga class is that the pace is slower and I take more time to explain the poses in detail.
There are several key principles that underlie the practice of Ashtanga yoga:
  • Breath: It is recommended that postures are held for five to eight (ujjayi)  breaths or more, if possible. 
  • Drishti: For every posture in the series, there is a set of drishtis, or gaze points.
  • Vinyasa: This is the breathing system that connects every movement in the series with the breath.
  • Bandhas: The practice should be carried out with the bandhas, or "body locks/energy splits" engaged in order to ensure that the breath is also correct.
* intensive, less dynamic, fixed sequence, all levels of experience friendly

Yoga Nidra

Yoga nidra, a Sanskrit term meaning "yogic sleep" is a deep relaxation technique and a form of meditation. Also called "psychic sleep," yoga nidra is a state between sleeping and waking. Yoga nidra practice results in deep relaxation and expands the individual's self-awareness.
* static, relaxing, all levels of experience welcome

Yoga and running

This project had started in the early spring of 2017, when I and my dear friend Krishna realized how nice it would be if there is a yoga/running community in our neighbourhood and the beautiful Sloterpark.  Unfortunately this project didn't last long - both of us busy and travelling a lot, we decided to stop it. 
I hope one day I will be able to restart it again.
*dynamic, intensive, challenging, for active people
