Zonnebloemen, symbool voor de cyclus van natuur en leven. De man in yogahouding 'savasana', zijn ziel één met de natuur | Sunflowers, symbolising the cycle of nature and life. The man in the yoga pose “savasana”, his soul at one with nature.

Your body doesn't care about your ideology.
Mine whispered for months. Fast heartbeat in savasana. Thinning hair. Irregular periods. My mind insisted I was doing everything right.
What has your body been trying to tell you?

Today I had another one of those moments "This is why I teach yoga".
New guy in class, at the end, after savasana, signed he was so chill and zen and relaxed, he could have just sat there for a while enjoying the feeling.
(Sadly, I do have to lock up the space after class, and cannot stay long).

Give yourself a chance to wind down before bed. Find a corner on the floor to try a few gentle movements and see what happens 🙂 Some suggestions:
- standing back bend
- dangle forward fold
- child's pose
- front-side savasana
- butterfly
- legs up the wall
- twist (both sides)
- savasanaMaybe even do it in bed and let yourself fall asleep in that sweet final resting pose.

VINYASA
vi- (‘in a special way’) -nyasa (‘to place’)Join us to practice yoga in a peaceful setting tucked amongst the reeds and the trees where our studio is nestled. Views out to the water front and surrounding nature create a magical environment and unique experience for this intimate yoga class.
Each lesson you will journey through mediation, breath, somatic movement and vinyasa. Kasha’s teaching style involves creative sequencing and imaginative transitions that guide the body to move seamlessly through forms while maintaining your flow. You’re invited to move in ways that feel good for you with room for choice, curiosity and playfulness. A themed narrative is interwoven through each class to create intentionality to your practice and offer points of contemplation beyond the mat. Handmade textile yoga props and carefully curated playlists dress the studio set up with an extra touch of heart and soul. Class concludes always with a generous Savasana, so you leave the space with your practice integrated and your body and mind nourished. All bodies, backgrounds and experience levels are invited.
We believe Yoga should be accessible to all which is why we offer classes to the community on a sliding scale. You can pay by QR code or cash at the studio using the guidelines below.

ABOUT KASHa
“Yoga to me is a journey back to myself. Whether that’s grabbing a quick moment at the dawn of a busy day or immersing myself in a month long training. I’m forever in awe of this practice’s ability, to shift my emotional state whilst offering new learnings and discoveries about myself. I teach yoga in the hope that I can facilitate a safe and grounding space where students can pause from the collision of modern day life and find connection to themselves.
I come from a clothing design background and long resisted the path of teaching yoga as I felt it didn’t align with my ‘creative’ identity. Then, whilst in the midst of grief I had an eureka (!) moment on my mat that ushered me on my teaching journey. I was joyfully surprised at how artistic the process of teaching yoga could be, and simply transferred my design formulas to building and planning classes. Creativity is at the heart of my teaching. My classes are imaginative and playful, focusing on connection to the breath and self inquiry. “

I took a page of the book "Yoga For mental health and wellness" (the training I am doing at the moment) and did a restorative practice today. Been having stressfull after stressfull week for the last 2,5 months and haven't been taken enough care of myself.
The 20 minute savasana (in a 65 min class) was clearly needed. I fell in and out that borderline sleep state several times.

This morning's yoga class included:
- 5 minutes heart coherence breathing (5,5 breaths per minute, use a track like https://open.spotify.com/track/0ztPS3K6OBrbaQnyGqFLMh?si=7a8e8f2147754176 to guide inhales / exhales)
- modifying class on the fly because someone was still having wrist issues (byebye vinyasas, hello creative stepping backs)
- giving lots of options for poses "chose your own adventure" style.
- a nice 8 minute long savasana with a track that is scientifically proven to reduce anxiety and help relax (https://open.spotify.com/track/6kkwzB6hXLIONkEk9JciA6?si=a6918acf3f6c4b16 ) (*)
And it resulted in a great class, even I felt energized after teaching it!
---
(*) ymmv like with all studies -
And after the workout, I joined the yoga class because I was curious about the style.
How to turn me off your yoga classes in five easy steps:
1. Have incense burning when I enter the room
2. Have music with lyrics playing
3. Do not shut the fuck up during meditation
4. Offer few to no modifications during asanas
5. Do not ask for permission to make adjustments during **savasana**, when I am laying down with closed eyes, and on top of that, use essential oils. -
Today I decided to deviate from my standard teachers and try a class by someone new to me. It was not a good choice.
Her cues were confusing, her timing was off, her breathing was hurried (to the point of me taking one inhale in her two breath count) and all over the place (not always the same length breath), adding a 2 minute balance flow at the end & over five minutes in butterfly as a "cool down" before savasana.
I have (sadly) started a list of teachers with whom I will not take class.

Today's #YogaForCrossFit class was focused on the arms. Lots of elbow flexion & extension, forearm pronation & supination.
We also worked on bound headstand & forearm stand, in the middle of the room. First I assisted them up, and most of them just kept trying on their own and got so good at freestanding headstand (and some at forearm stand) that I am so amazed and proud of them.
I do not practice headstand or forearm stand, so I guided them in and out and just gave tips.
(I know some teachers will say I should not teach what I don't practice, but I have practised them before, I just don't any more).
They also asked to enjoy savasana in the sun, so we moved the mats for savasana 😇

My bank is being overzealous with fraud protection, which means I am having trouble loading my business card to pay the next course I want to follow... Annoying, but thank you bank (also, thank you bank worker that answered my chat question on a Sunday afternoon, you don't get paid enough).
For those curious: I'll be taking a yoga nidra teacher training in the next months, to improve the restful qualities of savasana.
