When working as a director in Dutch theatre, I was always involved in warming ups, dance trainings, tapdance, pilates and some yoga now and then. Overall I was more of an outdoor athlete kind of person. It wasn’t until I suffered from serious back and knee injuries, that I really considered doing just yoga and nothing else. And it really didn’t take me long to fall in love with it. Years later I did the Vinyasa Teacher Training at De Nieuwe Yogaschool, to deepen my knowledge of yoga and to bring my practice to a higher level to start with. Being challenged by Johan Noorloos to teach anyway, I was surprised to find out I really love to teach yoga. So much, I have decided to continue further education these coming two years, with Simon Rowe and Daphne Koken. So here I am, an illustrator nowadays and recently working as a yoga teacher as well, highly valuating the Art of Alignment.
