Journey of yoga, Gent, Ghent (2026)

18/01/2026

Sri Lanka ~ Last year you mended my heart, this year you nourished my nervous system and soothed my body, slowly❤️

11/01/2026

2026, the year that started with having my framily all together in Sri Lanka. Something we manifested last year when my amba jaluwe (best friend) and I were on tour 🫶

One year later: Two yoga & creativity retreats at Villa Noumi, a full house of togetherness and quality time with my godchild, Nilou.
Personally, a dream that came true and this is yet only the beginning of 2026👯‍♀️

If you asked me what I loved the most, it’s those mornings waking up with little buddha Nilou and finding the time to work out all together: Early morning surf or swim, everyday (reformer) Pilates, HIIT, yoga, ice baths, all while having the kids run around or even participate. It takes a village, they say, but we are that village ‘on the move’🌈

Healthy bodies & minds truly is life and being able to share those moments and practices with the people you love is pure pure JOY.

So apart from wishing you all good health this year, I wish for all of you some magical movement moments in 2026 not only physically but also for the heart.
Looking forward to being part of that journey 🤸🥰

1 Singalees woord per dag leren, weinig koffie veel king coco, een dagelijkse ceviche of gegrilde volle vis, Komen Eten spelen na elk resto bezoek en keuzestress door de 5sterren reviews letterlijk overal, waterbaden in de zee als kleine gelukje, elke ochtend sneakpeak naar de golven en uitvoerige nabespreking van onze movement lessen maar vooral slow mornings, eat, move, read, swim, eat again, sleep on repeat with my forever mango friend🥭

En zodadelijk komt de Framily in Sri Lanka aan🫶

20/12/2025

And just like that, another week for the books , smaller group, tighter connections and room for the framily to come and say hi 🙏

This week felt like we brought the community overseas on location, joining, experiencing and participating in our retreat flow👯‍♀️

Beyond grateful, there was a lot of laughter, new experiences, some hot & cold plunging while getting tribal, playing as kids on our mats & in the sea.

Live talks over Sri Lankan curries became a thing and lots of letting go (not only in meditation practice) while doing ‘you do you or you do glue?’ ❤️

Retreat out, community continues always 🙏🤸

December starten met niet één maar, twee verhuizen, weet niet of het aan te raden was. Casa Rosa doet zijn intrede net boven Casa Jamon en opeens woon ik boven mijn beste vriendin net voor Sri Lanka vertrek. Een lange Tour de Belgique, gegeerde meetie tijd en naar jaarlijkse traditie een pitstop bij Commotie want de liefde gaat echt wel nog steeds door de maag. Nostalgisch naar vorig jaar, hunkerend naar de nieuwe avonturen die in Ahangama luren want naast onze retreats komt de Framily kerst en nieuw hier vieren🫶

December brengt ook het einde aan onze (pop-up) JOY studio aan de Visserij. Wat een plek, wat een community verhaal 👯‍♀️🥰

Niet getreurd we nemen onze intrede vanaf februari op een nieuwe locatie in centrum Gent, onze laatste stop voor we definitief - primeur - gaan settelen en onze JOY studio openen in Sint-Amandsberg in 2026 🫶

En nu even ondergedompeld worden in wat ik het liefst doe, een zoete inval aan mensen waarbij flow, beweging, natuur & lekker eten onze gemeenschappelijke noemer is 🌴

Best part l get to do this with 17 ladies & my best friends & .artbycaro

November so far, a dance on and off the mat, literally. Went day-dancing, movement for the entire body and heart. Days filled with cooking hot stuff, my body in need of heat… you feeling me? 🔥

A podcast recorded at Inside the Circle with amazing guests and cheeks that hurt from smiling throughout the whole conversation. A live breathwork and music session guided by the most talented friends. I even got to be their roadie for the day👯‍♀️

Gotta admit, I, too, have caught this hiking microbe, waking up early to see those northern lights and enjoying the little things, always.

Our focus of the month within my yoga tradition is called “rooted strength.”

When a seed germinates, the first thing it does is not send up shoots but send down roots. This movement toward the center of the Earth reminds us that, in nature, stability precedes expansion. The young sprout seeks the Earth’s core, anchoring itself before it ever reaches for light. In a similar way, Patañjali tells us that (spiritual) progress depends on practice that is firmly grounded — like a tree, rooted deeply before it reaches toward the blue sky.

Feeling such resonance with this one, rooting these days in slowing down to feel grounded & stability; not shooting up toward the blue sky, not yet, but almost☺️

We’re thrilled to bring our energy and podcast to this upcoming Friday!

TWBK Talks dives into conversations that explore balance, creativity, and mental health in the music industry and beyond. Through open dialogue, we aim to share fresh perspectives and real stories from inside the scene. Whether you’re an artist, organizer, or dedicated clubber, honest talks with gentle people!

For this edition, we’re inviting (.be) and .traum (.club) to join us at the conversation table.

Afterwards, we invite you to slow down and tune in with a breathwork and meditation session guided by our dear friends

Partners in life and music, Charlotte and Reinhard have always embraced new and exciting musical journeys. Currently, they’re developing science-based meditation music in collaboration with UGent (IPEM) and they’re excited to share the first results: a synced breathing exercise guided by music.

This immersive session will feature live music in their signature sound, a seamless blend of electronic and acoustic textures, elevated by Charlotte’s lush, soulful voice.

After composing the Sea, Sand & Sun meditations for WECANDANCE Festival 2023, the duo has continued to explore the intersection of sound, science, and well-being.

Join us for this immersive experience and discover how sound, breath, and science align🫶

October - A long inhale of moving at the pace of autumn🍁

A sober October, yet not a slower one, Long walks, deep talks. Shorter days slumbering around, longer lingering mornings over coffee in bed.

Nurture & nature at their best, hot soup almost every day, framily moments to take a mental screenshot of.

Creating heat from the inside out with our moving practices to not only warm up the body but also the heart🙏

To say it in the words of this month’s Jivamukti Focus of the Month:

Yoga practices offer us a chance to become more balanced humans — to bring to our consciousness aspects of ourselves that were shrouded in our unconscious, to let go of the striving and stress associated with modern times and chaotic thinking. Consciously breathing and moving offers one way to calm the craziness within.

“Where the mind is stilled, there the breath is suspended. Where the breath is suspended, there the mind is stilled.”
— Hatha Yoga Pradipika 4.23

Let November be a long exhale of all the above (with a burst of good craziness now and then😊), while entering our last month in our studio at the Visserij.

Add to that a little pause in the present moment to soak it all up before a new breath naturally comes around again✨

When I run after what I think I want, my days are a furnace of distress.

If I sit in my own place of patience, what I need flows to me and without any disturbance.

From this I understand that what I want also wants me, is looking for me and attracting me.

There is a great secret in this for anyone who can grasp it - Rumi

And maybe somewhere in between there is a silver lining of JOY & contentment

September, leaving summer behind with its long evenings and warm breezes. Autumn steps quietly in with its golden light and shifting colors🍁

A month of filling ‘de vriendschaps-emmer’, Being part of my friends’ families and participating in a 1st September bringing the kids to school. Learned to play Manillen after 5 years in Ghent, it was about time. Poured my heart into our festival, long drives to Brussels because apart from being a teacher, I’m in the professional matchmaking industry these days. After those drives, enjoying long walks with sunset and sunrise, seeing the shift in colors and yes, still with a coffee before breakfast (sorry cortisol), champagne to celebrate live and plans for 2026 👯‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Taking the time to slow down (fewer projects) and make room for my own practice and teaching again, because let’s be honest: summer was buzzzzy🙏

These days I feel so deeply filled with peace and joy when I arrive at our JOY studio to teach. Week after week, I’m welcomed by familiar faces showing up on their mats, doing this dance of breath and movement. Teaching has become second nature to me, but it’s also so much more. It’s the feeling of truly belonging with these people in a moment of togetherness.

Realizing everything is always better together, always🙏

I little something that was on my mind lately.  As a teacher, my calling is service.
My energy flows into my students: into creating thoughtful sequences, guiding safely, holding space with compassion and sharing the deeper benefits of yoga and Pilates.

I pour passion into the process of teaching, because I believe these practices have the power to reconnect us with our bodies and open the heart (cheesyyy but so true)❤️

I choose not to post my own practice online because I don’t want the focus to be on how something looks. Instead, I want to encourage you to feel: to feel those physical connections, to explore in your own body with whatever is present that day. To experience those small epiphanies that arrive when it all comes together✨  Yoga and Pilates are not about performance, they are about presence, discovery and playfulness

These words are coming from a place of non-judgment. Every teacher and practitioner has their own way of sharing and that is something I respect deeply, no shaming here, I am a true believer in the ‘you do you’ principle✌️
 From my own experience and believe, my practice belongs in the lived moment not in instagram sketches. That quiet, personal space is what nourishes me so that I can show up fully for you🧘

That said I have some real gems for you of me in that present moment, cause there is also so much laughter in movement practices, promised 😂😂
