Fundamentals of Bicycle Repair - Fixing flat tires, adjusting brakes, and more

From 46.45 £ /h

Bicycles are the easiest way to get around Amsterdam. Chances are you can ride a bike, but a flat tire will bring your ride to a stop. Not only does taking your bike to a shop cost money, but the mechanic might not have your repair done for several days.

If you would like to do your own repairs, I am your guy! Besides working as a mechanic at bike shops , I have taught bicycle safety and held neighborhood repair clinics. Together we will cover fixing a flat tire, adjusting brakes, and a comprehensive safety check. Depending on your bike and your ambition, we will cover gears and the internal bearing systems!

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.

The Alexander Technique is a very special tool, a self-help method that allows you to free up your performance as speaker and/or singer and in daily life.

I've been teaching all about my knowledge about yoga and sharing all my love of yoga since 2012.
I'm a certificated instructor for both Vinyasa yoga and Hatha yoga. I attended two separate Yoga Alliance certificated teacher trainings back in 2011 and 2012.
My sessions are professional, strong, playful, and designed in such a flow you lose track of time!

With personal yoga sessions, I modify my flows according to your needs and expectations.
That's one of the many reasons why having private sessions is super powerful and valuable!

Come and join me, let's breathe and move together!

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 my wisdom to anyone interested to become better version of themselves, or to those who do not know what else to try.

I am navigating people through a deep understanding of myself and in depth research in neuroscience, adding a holistic uproach to the uniqness of each individual.

I offer as well mentoring and tutoring for parents and children, inclusivity dialogs within communities, or groups willing to reach an agreement.

Further, I teach Spanish, Russian, Romanian, English, and Slovak language. Feel free to pick any language you desire to improve your skills in.

Furthermore, I am offering classes in humanities, namely world history, political science, geopolitics of the world, security studies, philosophy, critical thinking, and grant writing.

Focused on every day professional language.
With a lot of attention to speaking and pronunciation.

Ever wonder what’s going on behind the scenes of you? This class uses the tools of acting — voice, movement, presence, and play — to help you explore who you are, how you show up, and how you connect with others.

Designed for amateurs and the curious-at-heart, this isn’t about performing for an audience — it’s about discovering new sides of yourself in a safe, creative space.

Through guided improvisations, character work, and reflection, you’ll build self-awareness, confidence, and communication skills that show up in real life — from relationships to leadership to simply feeling more grounded in who you are.

No experience needed. Just bring your curiosity and a willingness to explore.
