25 Years FREE CLASS | Yin Yoga Special with Skadi van Paasschen
Slowing Down · Turning Inward · Embracing the Dark
with Skadi van Paasschen
A free practice with Skadi van Paasschen
As the days grow shorter and the light begins to fade, nature invites us to do what we so rarely allow ourselves — to slow down, to soften, to turn within.
This Yin class is an offering for exactly that. Through long-held, supported poses and the quiet of stillness, we create space to release what we carry and meet what we find underneath. No performance, no push — just the body, the breath, and the present moment.
It is a perfect practice for this time of year, when the darker season asks us not to resist but to rest. To let the body be heavy. To let the mind grow quiet. To remember that stillness, too, is a form of wisdom.
Come as you are. Leave a little lighter.
Free event. Space Limited! Please register in advance.
Skadi van Paasschen discovered yoga in 2003 and completed her Vinyasa Teacher Training at Yoga Moves in Utrecht in 2004. It was here that she was given the opportunity to start teaching — and it was through teaching, learning and exploring at Yoga Moves that she found her own voice and grew into the teacher she is today. More than twenty years later, she returns to where her journey as a teacher truly began. Skadi teaches Vinyasa, Ashtanga and Yin Yoga, combining her love of movement with a deep appreciation for stillness, awareness and the wisdom of the body.
Together we are create sacred space, celebrate the changing season, and honour 25 years of Yoga Moves through breath, movement, and community. All are welcome.
