Ayurveda & Yoga Workshop in the Netherlands 2024 - 2025

An Ayurveda and Yoga workshop offers you a quick and immediate positive impact on your life. Yoga philosophy and medical science are full of knowledge and wisdom. Often, we see people spend years immersing themselves in this, but struggle to actually apply it in their lives.
Applying Ayurveda in a Yoga workshop, we create a golden combination that allows you to take small steps in your life that will make you healthier and happier in the long run.

Depending on the topic of the workshop, one- or multi-day workshops are offered.

What do we do in an Ayurveda & Yoga Workshop?

The importance of a workshop is that it is informative, practical and applicable. Yoga and Ayurveda believes in health as a holistic aspect. Therefore, a varied programme is offered each day, including:

– physical activities in the form of Yoga Asana for body fitness;
– theoretical lessons from traditional Indian philosophy for brain stimulation;
– a sattvic meal to nourish the body internally;
– relaxation exercises to reset your body, mind and energy consumption;
– a practical workshop that you can immediately take forward at home.

Peaceful location in The Netherlands

The Ayurveda and Yoga workshop is organised at peaceful locations in the Netherlands. We often choose a small-scale Yoga studio or centre surrounded by nature.
We do choose a location in the middle of the Netherlands so that it is accessible to many people.
Examples include an Ayurveda and Yoga workshop in Amsterdam, The Hague, Utrecht, Oosterbeek and Arnhem.

Indian Classical Yoga & Ayurveda

All the retreats are taught with the knowledge from ancient Indian traditions. We balance practical and theoretical activities and teach in such a way that you can implement what you learn in your own life.

All the today’s day Yoga styles are derived from traditional Yoga. Therefore, you will find different styles back in our teachings. Asana practice is based on Hatha Yoga postures. Indian Classic Yoga precisely wants to make Yoga accessible to everyone therefore the Asanas are mainly done in a dynamic form. This is similar to the styles of Ashtanga, Vini yoga or Vinyasa. Our practical activities include Pranayama and Meditation.

In our group-sessions, lectures and workshops we provide you with tools for self-development and help you how to deal with life situations. This all comes from the Yoga philosophy. The wisdom is based on the Yoga Sutra’s of Patanjali, but also other Vedic traditions such as Samkhya and Vedanta.

One of the most important aspects in Yoga, which is often forgotten, is food. In our programs we introduce the knowledge of Ayurveda, which has at its core how to live a balanced life, how to become and stay healthy and give your body what it requires.

What They Say.

I liked all the useful lessons (life lessons) from Pinky and also the experiences she gave us. I love that that the class is not only theory but also direct application of what we learn. Keep going! I will talk about the good things and peace we experience here to my family & friends. Even my future baby was calmer in my belly. You brought peace to him too! Thank you.

I had a wonderful week where I got some of the answers I was looking for. Great introduction course to Yoga. I will learn more about this and start practicing. Of course I was hoping for Asana classes outside, that would have been ultimate, but doing it in the Yoga room was fine too. Great food, great people. I might come back to visit you guys and make some music. The meditation walks would have been more elaborate if there was good weather, but, then again, nicely solved.

Thank you Richard for the wonderful 5 days of Ayurveda Awareness. I learned a lot about eating for health and happiness. I particularly liked the way you were able to condence such a vast subject into bite size chews. The course was well structured and left time for questions, discussions and reflection. You also allowed time for activities to break down the theory e.g. herb walk and the vegetable curry preparation. It was a big advantage that we were able to do the entire course under the sun and in front of the lake! I would definitely recommend this course. Thank you!

Pinky is a wonderful teacher, teaching real Yoga and I really enjoyed learning about all of that. There is so much more to Yoga than just Asana’s, can’t wait to learn more from you. Thank you Pinky!!

I took a course on Ayurveda. What particularly appealed to me was the background of Ayurveda. More knowledge about diet and lifestyle affecting your health and how well you feel. I was surprised that Ayurveda gives a complete picture of a balanced lifestyle.

Anyone that wants to dive in the real meaning of Yoga and is willing to change should do this course with Pinky. She’s a really good teacher and knows exactly what you need. Thank you so much Pinky, we’ll definitely meet again!
