Yoga Moves Turns 25

This year, Yoga Moves celebrates its 25th anniversary.

What began in 2001 in a small rented studio in Utrecht has grown into five studios with more than 150 classes each week. Throughout those years, Yoga Moves has been shaped by the people who came to practise and the teachers who shared their work.

From 10 September until the end of the year, we are celebrating that story together.

Leave Your Mark

At every studio, you’ll find a 25 Years Community Tree. Add your fingerprint as a colourful leaf and help create a tree shaped by the people who practise there.

Each studio will also have a Memory Book. You can use it to share something you remember or leave a message for the years ahead.

25 Years in Your Words

Over the coming months, our What Moves You? series will bring together stories from across the Yoga Moves community. Teachers from past and present will appear alongside students and alumni, sharing what Yoga Moves has meant in their lives.

We’ll share their videos on Instagram, while the written stories will become part of a growing collection on our anniversary page.

We would also love to hear from you. Through our Share Your Story page, you can tell us about a class you still remember, a person you met or the place Yoga Moves has held in your life. We’ll invite more people to take part through Instagram throughout the anniversary.

Coming Back Together

This autumn, former teachers will return for special community classes. The celebrations come together from 20 to 22 November during our anniversary weekend.

At its heart is the Community Celebration on Saturday 21 November. The weekend opens with a Welcome Home reunion and closes with a special anniversary practice led by Hilary Brown and Maurice Eikmans.

The celebration also comes with a few anniversary gifts. Look out for special offers on class cards and memberships, with an extra treat for members in our studio shops.

There is plenty more to come. We hope you’ll add your story and celebrate with us.
