Yoga Social Club: free yoga classes in Amsterdam

Yoga Flow + Tea & Talk Circle (total: ~1h30) every Tuesday evening at 17h50. Location: Vasco Da Gamastraat 10, 1057 VK Amsterdam 1) ⚠️ Important: Join the WhatsApp group via QR code to stay in the loop. 2) 🗓 Book your spot through the website’s booking system or via the weekly link shared in the WhatsApp group. 3) Come just as you are — no special clothes or prior experience required. Mats provided! 4) Stay for the Tea & Talk Circle to connect with the community. 5) A donation box/Tikkie will be available to support me — especially to help cover the venue costs.

Absolutely anyone curious about yoga! Whether you’re a total beginner or already practice, you’re welcome. Everyone deserves a safe space to move, breathe, and connect. If you want to relax, meet new people, and share good vibes, this is for you.

It's a donation-based, beginner-friendly weekly yoga session (40–50 min), followed by a Tea & Talk Circle — a relaxed, light-hearted sharing moment where we explore fun or inspiring questions together. Fun extras: 🎁 ☕ Tea & Talk Circle → Each week we pick a fun or inspiring question (“One small thing you’re grateful for today”, “What helps you unwind after a tough week”). You can also add your own ideas to the Topic Box, and we’ll pick one for a future class. 💸 Yoga Social Club Discount → After 8 sessions, you unlock a discount on your first membership when the studio opens.

I’m currently training to become a certified yoga teacher. Offering these sessions on a donation basis helps me practice my teaching skills, build confidence, and connect with the local community.

These classes are free to join, but your contribution truly makes a difference: it helps cover the rent of the space and supports my journey as a new teacher. A donation box/Tikkie QR code will be available after class if you’d like to support.

It’s also a great chance for you to try my classes with no strings attached — and if you enjoy them, you’ll already have a discount on your first membership when my studio opens!

I believe that yoga should be open and accessible to all so the “fee” for this class is donation-based. Please pay whatever you can afford!

Method: Cash or Ko-fi QR code (Tikkie available soon)

Suggested contributions:

- 5€ covers the cost of the studio rental for one person

- 10€ covers the cost of the studio rental and my time for one person

- 11+ € covers the cost of the studio rental and my time for one person and pays it forward to help keep yoga accessible to those in our community who can’t otherwise afford it. Thank you! 🙏

Note: even < 5€ is perfectly fine if you can’t afford more. It helps buy the tea or helps pay the apple subscription for the playlists :)

• A free, welcoming, no-pressure way to try yoga.

• A chance to connect and make new friends with the Tea & Talk (a very rare and precious time where you can make real connexions)

• A mindful break from your daily routine.

• A reward for your consistency: discount on your first membership when the studio opens.

• Have your say in shaping the vibe of the future studio.

All classes are built with progressive levels, so you can stop at the variation that feels best for you. This isn’t a competition — we all have different bodies and abilities. You’ll find people who are more or less flexible than you, and that’s totally fine! The important thing is that everyone can practise, and I’ll make sure all levels feel included.

That said, if you’re very experienced in yoga, the class might feel a bit easy for you, as I’m still in training. But you are more than welcomed to help me improve the experience and give me some nice tips! :)

Our classes are at Vasco Da Gamastraat 10, 1057 VK Amsterdam Occasionally, we also have flash events in Vondelpark 🌳. 👉 Stay updated by joining our WhatsApp Group. Any changes in time or venue will be shared there and in the booking form of each event.

🕔 Every Tuesday evening, classes start exactly at 17h50 — yes, we’re precise!

I can book the venue for 1h30, so let’s make the most of it.

👉 To make sure you don’t miss any updates, join the WhatsApp Group. Any changes in time or venue will always be shared there, as well as in the booking form of each published event.

✅ Yes, mats, props & blankets are provided at the studio.

🌿 For outdoor events, please bring your own mat — don’t worry, reminders will always be shared in the WhatsApp group.

Of course! There’s absolutely no obligation, and no judgment if you prefer to leave after the yoga part. I designed the Tea & Talk Circle because there aren’t many easy ways to meet new people and have meaningful conversations. So just think of it as a friendly opportunity to socialize and connect — but it’s totally up to you!

Right now, as I'm starting my teaching journey, I prefer not to take risks with students who have specific injuries or medical conditions. Your safety is my priority. However, feel free to reach out, and we can discuss your situation. In the future, I'll have more training to support these needs better.
