Classes

Nourishing Yin yoga

Yin is slow. You settle into a shape and stay there for a few minutes without pushing. Connective tissue gets time, and usually your head does too. A class to come down into rather than get through.

Who it is for

For anyone, and in practice mostly for people who are switched on all day. You do not need to be flexible. Everything is supported with cushions and blocks, so you are not looking for the shape but for the place you can stay in for a few minutes.

What a class looks like

An hour, on Tuesday evening. Few poses, held long. There is music, there is not much talking, and there is a long savasana at the end. Bring comfortable clothes and maybe warm socks, since you cool down when you lie still.

Where

Amsterdam Zuid, on Hygiëaplein.

What it does for you

  • Makes space in hips, lower back and shoulders, exactly where tension collects
  • Calms the nervous system after a full day
  • Teaches you to sit with what is there, including when it is uncomfortable
  • Asks for no strength and no experience

Frequently asked questions

Do I need yoga experience?

No. Some of the people in class have never been on a mat. Classes are built so you can join without knowing anything, and there is always an easier option.

Are classes taught in English?

If someone in the room does not speak Dutch, the class is taught in English. Mention it when you book.
