Yogash citta vrtti nirodha
'Yoga is the stilling of the fluctuations of the mind.'
Patanjali, Yoga Sutras

I am a Vinyasa Yoga teacher based in Amsterdam. My yoga journey started ten years ago. Back in the days, I was finishing my Master Degree in Business and had to cope with a lot of stress. Yoga helped me to remain focused and grounded towards the new challenges I was facing. It truly brought balance into my life and helped me to smoothly adjust to these changes.

Not only does yoga keep you fit. It goes way beyond the physical practice and impacts all aspects of our daily life. Yoga reminds us how to breathe and how significant self-love and acceptance are. Yoga teaches us how to find peace and comfort in the uncomfortable. Yoga soothes the mind and creates space for continuous growth and expansion.
Yoga is a gift, 'the journey of the self, through the self, to the self.'

That is why I decided to become a yoga teacher, to be able to share this expanding experience with others and guiding them to find their inner teacher.

I can't wait to meet you on the mat!
Namaste,

Vivianne

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.

You'll learn the moves you need to be that cool kid on the block.
Dance moves ranges from beginner to advanced so come ready to learn.

I have been dancing on and off for over 10 years as a hobby because I am pursuing my career in another field.

If you want to learn more technical moves like a backflips, frontflips, handstands, these classes will be separate.

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!

Yoga is an assimilation of mind, body and soul.
In our fast paced stressful life we need a moment to relax , breathe and connect the body to the soul.
In my class, we start first with a few breathing exercises to let you first empty on your mind.
Then we focus on certain asanas or poses to let the breath Connect with a body part while remaining in the pose. The last 10 mins I focus on the meditative part where we connect to the soul with the help of our breathe.
My class is designed to make you feel relaxed and establish a connection with yourself.
Even if you have no experience in yoga before you are welcome to join and feel the benefits of this wonderful word of yoga.

Yoga is not just a practice—it’s a way of life.
All you need to do is set aside a little time... I’ll guide you through the rest. This journey will leave you feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected—both to yourself and the world around you.

Let’s go beyond what you see on social media.
Yoga is far more than poses—it is an ancient, holistic science rooted in deep wisdom. First mentioned in the sacred Rig Veda, Yoga means Yuj—to unite. It’s a union of body, mind, breath, and spirit.

In this personalized online class, you’ll receive my full attention. Whether you're a beginner or more advanced, the session will be tailored to your needs. Together, we’ll explore:

Grounding asanas (postures)
Cleansing kriyas
Healing mudras
Powerful pranayama (breathwork)
Stillness through meditation
You'll leave each session feeling refreshed, relaxed, and energized—ready to carry that peace into your daily life.

🧘‍♂️ I work with international students, professionals, and individuals across the globe—online and in business organisations. My teaching draws from diverse traditions including Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Himalayan, and Iyengar yoga.

So, take a deep breath...
Don’t overthink it. Just book your spot—and let the transformation begin.

See you on the mat.
Namaste. 🙏

Private Class Salsa or Bachata will improve your dancing so much! Because in group classes you won ́t get the individual attention and details YOU need. I will look at your level and go from there. We can cover the basics very slowly and adjusted to your level. Also I have my own dancing studio with mirrors in Amsterdam South

Meet phytocannabinoid supplements
We discuss a number of things you may not have known about the safe use of the medicinal components of the cannabis plant.
When it comes to cannabis, THC and CBD are always in the spotlight. But this ancient plant contains hundreds of other medicinal substances. Many of these work together in unique ways, leading to endless benefits for the quality of our lives.
The hundreds of cannabinoids are severely underestimated, but have a lot to offer.
In this lesson we will delve into the human endogenous cannabinoid system.

I offer flowy, creative and funky vinyasa and hatha classes. Slow flow yin-like classes are an option as well! The classes are held online, through zoom or other platforms, but they will be in person as well in a few months!

The classes can focus on hips flexibility and mobility specifically, in order to work on the lower chakras, but the preferences of the student will be discussed so to tailor the class on the basis of your needs. Classes are generally addressing the whole body with a greater focus on the lower areas in the last parts of the class. I encourage feeling one own's body with care to ensure that we are working on the areas that most need attention! But working on the hips can be very useful to release facial and jaw tension, tap into femininity and release stored negative emotions of fear and shame. Classes are sensitive to trauma and can be very good to reestablish a connection to an often forgotten (female) body, but also to cultivate compassion, forgiveness and clarity. I hope to see you soon <3 Have a wonderful day!
