This is why I teach: I try to let you understand the soft approach. Softness goes much deeper, softness seeks to understand, softness is open-minded, softness is willing to collaborate, softness is heartfelt, and therefor softness is not per se easy.
“Don’t underestimate the power of softness”
I present to you all: S.O.F.T. (Studio of Fascia Training) movement studio.

In today’s world I don’t think we need to move faster, push more, demand more from ourselves and our bodies. It can feel like it’s depleting us and not bringing us towards balance. What I try to bring with my fascia-focussed classes is the opposite. Take time to slow down, mindfully observe where balance is needed in the body. What parts of the body need space, which need a re-awakening, a re-hydration, awareness and which ones need some more strength? It’s not the gripping kind of strength, the holding on tightly and pushing. But it’s the soft, supporting strength from within. Where we can keep things flowing and moving. It’s nuanced strength, where muscles are not turned on or off; but can do as much as is needed for the purpose. Small, deep movements to nurture the body from the inside out.

Marije Yoga Retreats

When I first entered the hay loft at Vidovina, I instantly felt that it was a perfect place for yoga. The environment is so inviting to contemplate life, sleep great and enjoy nature. I wanted to invite people to this beautiful part of Italy and let them recharge their batteries form their busy city life. Vidovina is an old farm located in the middle of the woods, up on a hill, just outside the cute village of Casola Valsenio.

With this idea in the back of my head, I joined a Yoga Teacher Training in Amsterdam. Jagadish was the head teacher in this training and came all the way form Thailand to teach us. Fast forward a couple of years, I can say that I made my dream come true. I am teaching regularly in Amsterdam and do retreats in the hay loft in Vidovina in the summer. I even teach some retreats with my teacher Jagadish!

I do 5 retreat this summer in Vidovina. August 4-10: Yoga & Food Retreat with Foodness August 12-18: Yoga & Food Retreat with Foodness August 19-26: Energizing Detox Week with Jagadish August 26- September 2: True Colours Retreat with Magda Procner September 9 -16: Energizing Detox Week with Jagadish

The difference between the retreats in short: Yoga & Food Retreat: 1 yoga class a day, 1 food workshop a day (of which making your own pizza in our wood oven is one), vega(n) options, we will visit an organic winery (and taste too, of course!) Energizing Detox and Yoga Retreat: 2 yoga classes a day, 1 meditation session a day, vegan detox program (not just juices, we eat solid), no alcohol or coffee (we are detoxing). There is a daily focus on the organs, with yoga classes, food, drinks and supplements. True Colours Retreat: 2 yoga classes a day, 1 meditation session a day, vegan colourful food, alcohol: bring your own. There is a daily focus on the colourful chakras, with yoga classes and food.
