What makes Slow Flow on Monday’s such a good start of your week? Monday’s have a bad reputation, so why not change your view on it?

This class is a slow Vinyasa class, also known as slow flow. Moving to the rhythm of your breath, we will flow from one pose to the next.

Make Monday morning something to look forward to. Use the one hour we spend together to check in with yourself. Chances are you have already gone over your calendar and you know what is coming on your to-do list. It might be easier to tackle that list, to start all the topics on your calendar in the best possible way, if you take time to check in with yourself. How are you doing this week? How is your energy level? And then we’ll start moving from there. Consciously, tapping into what’s already there and finding your inner strength in a slow and loving way. Making sure that you are ready to face whatever the week brings in the best possible way.

This class is for all levels, and both men and women welcome!

Qigong is al meer dan 5000 jaar oud en maakt deel uit van de 'Traditionele Chinese Medicijnleer' (TCM), die haar oorsprong heeft in veelomvattende theoretische structuren, waaronder Yin&Yang, de Vijf Elementen (Wuxing), het energiesysteem van het menselijk lichaam met haar meridianen, energiepoorten, Dantian en meer.

Het wordt ook wel Chinese Yoga genoemd, al is het veel omvattender dan dat.

Qigong is het samen komen van beweging en meditatie. Een bewegingsvorm waar de bewegingen meerdere keren herhaald worden op een zachte en krachtige manier.

De eenvoudige oefeningen helpen blokkades te herkennen, los te laten en lichaam en geest weer met energie op te laden.

Qigong brengt je meer en meer in contact met je ware zelf en jouw unieke talenten. Het versterkt bovendien je intuïtie en maakt je krachtig.

Geschikt voor alle niveaus, mannen en vrouwen zijn welkom.
Deze les wordt verzorgd in het Nederlands. Onze gastdocent is Mildred Adegeest.

Men and women welcome!

Vinyasa Yoga is a ‘style’ of yoga that connects breath to movement; also known as “flow yoga.” Vinyasa yoga links one asana/pose to another using the breathe to create fluidity while strengthening the body and mind. Through a creative series of asanas/postures the teacher prepares you for a more challenging ‘peak’ pose. Because the Vinyasa yoga poses are linked together; during this practice you will smoothly transition from pose to pose while building strength, endurance and flexibility. This ‘style’ of yoga is for everyone, all levels (beginner-advanced) & no experience needed.

Both men and women welcome.

In the Hatha Yoga practice the focus is on loosening and strengthening the body. It is a static practice, rather than a flowing one, and there is always time for relaxation between different postures.

Regulating the breath plays an important role in the practice in order to stabilize it. The Hatha Yoga practice will calm down and quiet your mind. After the practice you will feel peaceful, open and strong.

It is a mild practice so it is a great style for people who are new to yoga or students who prefer a more relaxed style.

Men and women are welcome. All levels.

We are increasing your aerial repertoire and introducing a new class: Fly
Low class.

Our teacher will help you enjoy the hammocks in ways you didn't even imagine was possible. If you're
feeling tired, stressed or overworked, this type of yoga is the answer!!

The poses range from being on, hovering slightly over and off the ground. I
will find those poses to be grounding, healing and challenging.
It's a different feel from regular Aerial classes with our hammocks (waist
level) but it's definitely something that might interest you to add to your
weekly routines. Or just try once. No experience is needed.

In our Prenatal Aerial classes the hammock (sling) will be used to remove pressure from certain areas of the body, release tension, and build strength and flexibility to prepare for labor.

Changing of your body and upcoming needs will be discussed in-between exercises, while being appropriately gentle and safe for you and your baby.

For prenatal use, our hammocks are just another tool preparing your mind, body, emotions and spirit for birth. No difficult or acrobatic poses should be expected like we would use the slings generally in a typical aerial yoga class.

You will practice to:
- Listen to your body, staying true to you in every moment
- Being present
- Being kind to yourself, and take deep breaths.

Added bonus: some guided meditation and savasana in the hammock, letting the sensation of weightlessness melt away your tension.

You will leave feeling like you truly worked your body, yet in a safe, conscious and effective manner.

No previous experience practicing Yoga or Pilates is required. Al stages of pregnancy are welcome.
If you have (pregnancy) complaints or injuries you are welcome to join, but let the teacher know upfront!!

Join this wonderful class! The swing is a fantastic prop and can really change they way you stretch; you will come out feeling like a brand new person and you will have gained an entirely new perspective on your own yoga practice.

Men and women welcome!

Based in Den Haag, Louella Alatiit is an active violinist with a diverse freelance performing career. Her musical inspiration extends from the expressiveness and improvisatory elements of baroque music, as well as the unique sonority and expression obtainable with period instruments.

A Savasana Concert is a lay-down concert which allows you to explore music in a new dimension. Enjoy the beautiful sounds from your hammock or yoga mat. You can sit, swing or lay down.
Some say that the real magic of yoga happens in Savasana. Experience this solo violin performance, that will deepen your relaxation even further, slowing down the heart rate and calming the breath.

In this Savasana Concert Louella will play a combination of ‘slow’ movements from both the Bach solo cello and violin suites as well as music by Telemann, a contemporary of Bach. In this musical context, she invites listeners to obtain some moments of calm, reflection, and peacefulness while they are guided by Tami Kalir through some yoga poses and guided meditation.

14:45 Doors open / Getting yourself settled / Finding your hammock or mat
15:00 Start Concert
16:00 Enjoy chatting with each other and Louella
Healthy snack & drinks are offered.
