About Vivi

Movement is freedom.

I am Vivi, a yoga and movement coach, and a natural lover of essential oils. I've been practicing yoga for over 10 years now, and my teachings sit where body, breath, and mind meet, with oils woven in wherever they feel right.

Movement is freedom. After tearing my meniscus in my right knee, I had keyhole surgery and lost all the muscle in that leg. Yoga helped me get strong again, and that's when I learned the benefits of building strength with your own body weight. My yoga journey, even though it started with the physical body, brought me deeper to understand and listen to my heart, body, mind and spirit.

My knee was not my enemy. My knee was my teacher.

Being a student of life, and a child at heart, I invite you to join me and move through space with awareness, challenging, listening to, and strengthening the body, opening our hearts, and spreading our light together!

Based in Amsterdam and Ibiza.

The Practice

Three paths, one intention

Every offering is designed to bring you back to balance, through the body, through breath, or through the quiet power of energy.

Yoga

As a certified Vinyasa teacher, I move through classes with intentional flow, and I teach from the yogic principle of witness consciousness. Finding calm in the chaos by learning to observe rather than react. Watching the stones dance in the river from the riverbank, rather than getting swept into the current. Stilling the fluctuations of the mind so you can rest in your true nature as the observer, rather than being identified with (and tossed around by) every thought, emotion, or event.

Movement

Notice how even just fifteen minutes of movement changes how your whole day feels! My classes build functional strength by using your own body weight, because that's the strength life actually asks of you. Stronger, more flexible, more capable, one class at a time. All levels welcome.

As a certified Yin yoga teacher we also learn how to slow down. I hold postures longer than usual, giving your mind room to settle and your fascia, the tissue that wraps and connects everything, room to soften and release.

Reiki

Reiki is a gentle Japanese practice, rooted in Usui Reiki Ryoho, built on a simple idea: we already carry the life force we need to heal. Teachers in this lineage, like Frans Stiene, describe it less as a technique to fix something and more as a way of coming home to who we really are, softening the anger and worry we hold so that gratitude and compassion have room to grow. In session, I use hands-on and hands-off touch to help that energy move freely again, calming the nervous system and creating space to simply be. It's a quiet, grounding complement to the stillness we build together on the mat.
