Imke’s Story

Heya! My name is Imke and I discovered yoga in 2018. I truly believe yoga can be a tool for embracing an embodied and ever-growing self. I completed my 200hours teacher training in Ericeira, Portugal, a beautiful town near the sea. For the past year, I lived in Edinburgh to pursue a masters in Modern and Contemporary Art and I continued my love for playing music. I’ve been back in Leiden since September and teaching vinyasa, mild and restorative yoga. In my classes, I will always find ways to embrace the world of creativity and encourage students to explore their own creativity through carefully curated music and mindful movements, sometimes guided by poems. I often implement the elements into my flows, embracing nature’s essence and rhythm, as well as its musical elements. I believe that the practice of yoga is different for everybody, but I try to unite the practice by finding a calm mind in a calm body.
