From Yang to Yin and Back

In this class we will alternate Yang poses and Yin poses. We will go from ‘active’ stretches and contraction of the muscles into ‘passive’ and longer held poses wherein we relax. A great and maybe not so traditional combination of Yang and Yin yoga.

A Balancing Act

This class challenges body and mind to stay calm and focused in all kinds of different situations. The poses themselves are not so difficult, but we work intensely on coordination and balance.  This class helps develop determination and purpose, and leaves you incredibly centred, even when you wobble 🙂

Ashtavakra, the story behind the pose

We start with the story about Asthavakra. The sage who was born with eight different deformities of the body, and who was so intelligent that he saved his father and grandfather in a philosophical debate. We build this class up to the actual pose: Ashtavakrasana. Know that you never have to preform the pose, however […]

Short, sweet and very intense

In this short and very intense class we combine cardiovascular exercises from other disiplines with our yoga poses. We will do: planking, military pushups, mountain climbers and (modified) burpees. All to raise your hartbeat and to let you sweat! You’ll probably need a towel, and yes, drink loads of water after class! Enjoy!

Tap Into Your Power

This is a short but oh so effective class. We start moving right away, getting some juice into back and hips before doing some powerful moves to get you heart pumping and your whole body active. We round it up with some stretches and a short meditation.

Let it sweat!

There is no Yang without Yin and No Yin without Yang. In this more Yang orientated class we slowly start to wake up the body, by moving the spine and warming up the leg muscles. Then we take it in to a dynamic yang sequence which includes the “Flying Dragon”, one of Suzee Grilley’s signature […]

The Non-Aggression Issue

In this talk we start to explore some of the concepts outlined by Patanjali in his sutras. The most famous of his concepts, the Eight Limbs of Yoga, starts with an incredibly complex issue: non-aggression. We talk about different ways of looking at it, and finish with an invitation to self examination and observation.

Morning Express: Offer & Bow

This is one of my favourites, a complete body and intention practice, opening both the front and the back of the body, especially nice for days when you are short on time but need to open and energise everything. The most challenging part of the class is the coordination between front and back of mat, […]

In this class we will target the back. In our time back problems are on of the main health issues in society. We wil target the whole spine. form lower up.

Skeletal Variation 102: The Pelvis

Continuing our exploration of anatomy and of how our bones are shaped, we look into the pelvis. The shape and mobility of our pelvis is going to be very determining for how we move, and its position will make a huge difference when we perform a posture. As we have explained before, bones can vary […]

Talk: The Pose is Not The End Goal

Most of us associate the practice of yoga with the performance of physical postures, but in reality the physical postures were developed to help us in our process of self-examination and development. In this short talk we start to explore these ideas.

Morning Express: A Friendly Start

This is my go-to practice for those days when I feel heavy and low, and start to make excuses not to practice. A super friendly, low resistance beginning that gently gets the body moving and the energy flowing, and a short, sweet meditation to wrap things up.
