YOGA JOURNEY ;

a state of clarity. The potential for becoming...
Our true selves are always and will always want to be okay.
We are learning methods and tools to get closer to the real truth through yoga and this class.
We exercise and harken in order to become more aware of who we truly are.

ECSTATIC DANCE JOURNEY ;

Learn how to move your body freely without feeling guilty or ashamed. Connect with the music and the world around you to get closer to your true self. Dance as if you've never danced before, without regard for how you look or who is watching.
Allow yourself to be in the moment and enjoy every aspect of it. This sounds fantastic, but does it only happen when you're drunk or something? Here you can have fun and let go of all the stored emotions that you no longer need, and feel weightless and free without the aid of anything.
It's just you, yourself, and the music on a magical journey home.

Hi! My name is Vivianne. I have been living in Amsterdam for two years now and I do love this city! I'm originally Dutch and I have lived in several countries (different places in The Netherlands, Hong Kong, Peru). That feeling of entering a new city is amazing; all those new people, places and beautiful spots but it can also make you a bit insecure about your decisions. Did you choose the right studies or job? You moved for love but what's next? What about new friends? You're not alone, many people around you experience the same. Next to my own experiences, I work as Dutch teacher (Dutch as a second language) and therefore know how 'newcomers' experience their new life. I want to help people feeling happier and content with their decisions. I have a background in (international) marketing, languages and intercultural communication and due to this combination I have a depth intercultural understanding.

So, if you want to talk about...

- Your life in The Netherlands (e.g. studies, job)
- Your decisions (e.g. feelings, emotions regarding any subject)
- Your future plans (e.g. staying in The Netherlands, moving)

And want to feel...

- More confident in your studies / job
- Happier in your personal and social life
- More integrated in the Dutch culture

Without feeling a patient in need of an expensive psychologist/psychiatrist, feel free to contact me. We can have a short intake so you can tell me something about yourself and make a plan for further meetings.

If you're interested in Dutch lessons as well we could, of course, customize the sessions.

I teach Vinyasa, Yin, Restorative, and Power Yoga. Classes are available at all levels in English or Dutch. In addition to private lessons, I have extensive experience teaching in studios.

Yoga has done a lot for me, both physically and mentally. It is about much more than just exercise and would like to share this with others. I did my 200 hour yoga teacher training in Vinyasa and Ashtanga Yoga in Greece. In addition, I followed a 100-hour yoga teacher training in Yin Yoga in Utrecht.

I like to give my students a better understanding of why you are practicing a certain pose, what the benefits are for your body and mind, and the best way to get into the pose! Each lesson can be adapted to your wishes! You can indicate to what extent you want to focus on meditation & breathing and to what extent you want to focus on the physical aspect of yoga. After each lesson we can make adjustments so that I can ultimately put together the perfect lessons for you!

These are the classes I can offer:

1. Introduction to contemporary dance and improvisation
With this workshop introduction to contemporary dance, we invite people without dance experience to taste improvisation. Dancers use different techniques to create movements. One of them is improvisation: the process of spontaneous movements, shaped by exercises that work on the imagination and empathy. The desired result of the workshop is that the participants make a connection between emotions and movement.

2. Dance classes for seniors
The first part of the lesson is warming up on the chair. Inspiration drawn from gyrokinesis, a form of movement that increases spinal mobility. In combination with Pilates-based exercises for muscle activation, we prepare the body with an approach that is suitable for everyone.
In the second part, the exercises continue standing with a body scan. The exercises explore every part of the body using weight, dynamics and movement qualities. The end result is the involvement of the whole body playing with rhythms and patterns in space.
The class is designed for creativity, individuality and vitality maintenance.

3. “Connect-id flow” - Contemporary dance lessons
In the “Connect-id flow” class, the essence is to neutralize excess energy so that the dancer moves effortlessly through space. The organic sequence of movements that make up the exercises focuses on weight distribution and the movement of the spine. The accumulated kinetic energy guides our body forward in the exercises; it stimulates the continuation and relaxation of the body parts.
During the warm-up, which consists of floor work, information is shared about the correct use of the limbs. As well as the importance of grounding the body to achieve softness and continuity during the execution of the movements. Once we have prepared the body, the intensity of the class builds. The weight navigates the body through space and spirals introduce more complex movements. Ultimately, the goal of the lesson is to build strength, find a smooth flow of movement and a better knowledge of the energy distribution while dancing.

I am not only a dancer and dance teacher, but also a passionate advocate for the deeper roots of positive energy and connection in dance. My priority is to evoke emotions, express character, and harmonize the body movements of my students, but most of all; have FUN. I work closely with each individual to ensure they achieve their personal goals.

The hundreds of cannabinoids are severely underestimated, but have a lot to offer.
