From never doing yoga, to diving straight into a full-on yoga retreat. That's not something most people do – yet I did just that. I went on a yoga retreat with my friend Fleur when I was still a newbie. It was a decision that would change my life.

I love everything about yoga. Asanas, Pranayama, chanting mantras. In the years since that first yoga retreat, I've deepened my yoga practice. Yoga is not merely moving from posture to posture, but a dynamic practice where breath leads the way. It allows you to keep listening and explore both your body, your mind and the world around you.
The final piece of the puzzle was finding my yoga home in Amsterdam. I am grateful to be able to teach yoga as a way of self-discovery at Svaha Yoga Amsterdam.
