Como Novo bem-estar = Renate Moerman
Besides yoga instructor and massage therapist I am an enthusiastic free & (former) competition surfer, journalist, photographer, surf coach and traveller. Surf travelling over just about all continents, I took up practicing yoga in 2003 to counterbalance the strain surfing put on neck/back/shoulders. Over the years I have practiced Iyengar, Hatha, Ashtanga and Anusara. In 2015 I obtained a 200hrs Yoga Alliance qualified Ashtanga primary series certificate and a yoga therapy certificate, but I don’t necessarily feel those certificates are too important: it is the practice and experience that matter most. I feel blessed to have practiced under guidance of many outstanding teachers, as this has given me inside in yoga from many angles, something I will try bring into my classes. The benefit I experienced from different massages I received over the years, made me decide to enroll for a Cert IV in Quiromassagem in Portugal in 2007. Since then I have offered my mobile massage services all over the world; at surf (training) camps, in hotels, spas and ‘ao domicilio’. Yoga classes.....
to improve focus, strength and flexibility. My yoga classes are a mix of Hatha/ yoga therapy, Ashtanga. Suitable for everyone, as the poses will vary in difficulty- and I’ll demonstrate modifications for every level/body type. Classes in English/Portuguese; communication in Dutch, French, Spanish, German possible. I am available for private Classes. Usually classes last 1h15. Classes especially targeted at surfers, runners or other athletes, equestrians or seniors possible on request. Mats, blocks and belts available (but if you have your own mat, please use). Massage
Arms/back sore from paddling because the surf was so good? Training for a triathlon? Working long days behind the computer? Make an appointment and let me help you relax your (over)used muscles! My style is result-oriented. The aim is to release any tightness and restriction of movement, get you ready for your activities, or promote recovery afterwards. I will adapt the techniques I use to your body type and according to your preferences. I am open for direction during the treatment as I find it of utmost importance that you can stay relaxed, keep breathing and enjoy the treatment- and receive optimum benefit. Very suitable for surfers and athletes. Please note: my service is strictly not a sexual/erotic one.
