Since June 2023, I’ve been teaching yoga with dedication in a variety of settings, including yoga studios, physiotherapy clinics, health and fitness clubs, and beach resorts on the beautiful island of Curaçao. I’m an RYT 500 with 700 hours of yoga teacher training, and I have taught over 800 classes, accumulating more than 900 hours of teaching experience.
I specialise in a variety of yoga styles such as Yin Yoga, Hatha, Vinyasa, Nidra, Restorative, Gentle Flow, Breathwork/Pranayama, trauma-sensitive yoga (TSY) and prenatal yoga, offering a calm and accessible approach where breath, awareness, strength and relaxation take centre stage. Additionally, I also teach (classical/gentle) Mat Pilates, with the same emphasis on breath, control, and mindful movement.
Whether guiding a regular weekly yoga class, stepping in as a substitute teacher, or offering private sessions and special events, I aim to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows space for both stillness and movement. I teach in both English and Dutch, ensuring that everyone feels comfortable and supported in their practice.
Yoga invites you to reconnect deeply with yourself, your body, and the present moment. The Bhagavad Gita, an ancient text, describes yoga as ‘the journey of the self, through the self, to the self‘, a concept that can be experienced today as a journey of breath, awareness, gentle self-care, and connecting with what is already within you.
Or, in the words of Patañjali, who composed the famous opening verses of the Yoga Sūtras roughly 1,600–1,800 years ago:
“Now is the time for yoga.
Yoga is the gentle stilling of the mind’s restlessness.
And then, we can rest in the truth of who we really are.“
The practice of yoga has profoundly changed my life, and it is a joy and a privilege to share that experience with others through my teaching.
As a teacher and student, I know that yoga is a lifelong journey. I’m endlessly curious and never done learning. For me, continuing to explore, deepen, and grow is an essential part of walking the yogic path.
Hope to connect with you on the mat.
