Meet the Teacher: Marieke Kooijmans

You may have seen Marieke behind the scenes at Yoga Moves, and now she steps into the studio with her new Hatha & Sound class in Terwijde. Starting this September, she will guide you on Tuesday evenings at 20:30.

Marieke’s yoga journey began in 2017 while living in Asia, when she joined a yoga class at her office. The practice reawakened her connection to her body after years away from gymnastics, and it sparked a new direction in her life. In 2023 she completed her 200-hour Bhakti Yoga, Vinyasa, and Hatha training. Since 2021 she has also been certified in sound healing, and for many years she has shared music in ceremonies. Her teaching style is mindful and alignment-based, with themes that invite students to explore the mind-body connection and leave class feeling more at peace.

Her new Hatha & Sound sessions bring relaxation, mindful movement, and sound together. You will move through dynamic postures, take slower holds, and pause for moments of rest. Breathing practices support balance in the nervous system and can ease stress or fatigue. Marieke weaves in sound using instruments and vocals, creating a healing atmosphere that helps you settle into stillness and connect more deeply with yourself.

Join Marieke for Hatha & Sound in Terwijde every Tuesday at 20:30
