Kids yoga

Children LOVE yoga!
They also need yoga!

They are natural and yet, if breath and movement are not encouraged at an early age, they quickly can become stiff – both physically and mentally! Yoga makes the body more flexible, increases blood circulation, can increase concentration and self-confidence, is non-competitive and helps bring calmness to the mind.

At Yoga Moves we teach traditional yoga poses in a playful way. The Sun Salutation is our basis, and most yoga poses are related to nature objects and animals. Through yoga we also learn about the breath, concentration, relaxation and consciousness. Give your children a chance to discover the power of yoga!

Yoga Moves offers kid's yoga (in dutch!) from ages 6-10 on:
Fridays at 15.30-16.30

Prenatal Yoga

Prenatal Yoga

Pregnancy is a special time in a woman's life - it is a time for nurturing, slowing down and learning to meditate, while being in the company of other mothers-to-be. Join our Prenatal Yoga Classes to stay safely physically active during pregnancy; to learn meditation and breathing techniques which will help you during pregnancy, labor, and beyond; and take time to turn your attention inward and nurture this special time with your baby.

Yoga during pregnancy can help:

  • bring awareness to your changing body
  • improve oxygen flow to your organs and your babies
  • increase stamina and strength
  • prepare yourself physically and mentally for giving birth
  • concentrate - ease fears and tension
  • relax and cultivate a general feeling of wellbeing

At Yoga Moves you can expect to MOVE. We will offer you ways to stay in the flow of your body, so be prepared to work a little, breath a lot, and relax deeply. A wonderful experience both for the experienced yogini and for those women who are new to yoga. No previous experience practicing yoga is required.
