Every Friday, our Community Classes open the space for new teachers to step forward and for our community to practice together. From September 4 until November 20 | 12:30–13:30, two fresh graduates of our 200-hour Vinyasa Teacher Training will guide you through these free Vinyasa classes: Yanni Dong and Laura van Heeswijk.
About Yanni
Yanni is a passionate yoga practitioner who first stepped onto the yoga mat in 2011. She completed her first teacher training with the China Yoga Association in 2013 and later deepened her practice by completing her Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training at Yoga Moves in 2026. Yanni is also a postdoctoral researcher in mathematics and computer science. Drawing from her academic background, Yanni brings clarity, precise anatomical cueing, and intelligent sequencing into her teaching. Her classes seamlessly integrate breathwork (pranayama) with dynamic flow, creating an encouraging and safe space for students of all levels to build strength, flexibility, and inner balance. Expect an energetic yet grounded practice where you can explore your potential at your own pace.

About Laura
For Laura, yoga is an invitation to really start listening to your body. Through movement and breathwork we find the stillness to listen. Laura looks forward to enable her students to learn from and be inspired by their own yoga practice.
In her classes she likes to focus on injury prevention, specifically issues related to the spine. Laura guides you to focus on alignment, release tension and build strength.
Laura's yoga practice has evolved over the years to a practice where movement becomes not just medicine (healing) but also nourishment (preventative). In her vinyasa teacher training with Yoga Moves, she started discovering breathwork and how this can help release tension both mentally and physically. She is excited to bring this knowledge to her students.
Community Classes
Every Friday, you can join a free Vinyasa yoga class that’s open to everyone, making yoga truly accessible for all. Each class is taught by a Yoga Moves Vinyasa Teacher Training graduate and welcomes all levels. Most classes follow the set beginner sequence, but each teacher may bring in simple creative variations to share their own inspiration.
Come support our new teaching talent and experience the flow of breath and movement in a warm community setting. Free for all to join!
