AcroYoga in Leiden
Whoop whoop! Since the new season we have full weekends of acro!
We start the weekend on Saturday morning with a 3 hour intermediate/advanced workshop with a specific topic. On Sunday morning we offer a beginner/intermediate AcroYoga class. Both are followed by a potluck lunch and a long open jam.
The activities will take place at our own space at Oude Vest (entrance at Caeciliastraat). The classes are about 2 hours, the workshops about 3 hours.
It’s definitely the place to connect with yourself, to play with others, and to have a good work-out and joyful time all together
About the Classes & Workshops
Classes
The Sunday classes will be custom made and are especially for those who come for the first time, have no experience yet, want to practice another role, or want to improve their overall L-basing skills. You definitely don’t need a partner, but if you want to bring a friend, feel free to do so.
Workshops
The 3 hour long workshops on Saturday morning are designed for the more experienced acro-monkeys. We’ll go more into depth and detail. We’ll teach more advanced skills, and we would love to see you improve in the tricks we like so much. The focus will be on whips and whippops, pops and icarians, complicated washing machines, and hand-to-hand and foot-to-hand.
Potluck lunch, open jam, free training
The classes will be followed by a potluck lunch and an open jam. Maybe the one thing that connects people the most, is food. So bring you favourite pie, snack, or cake, and let’s share!
During the jam you can practice what you got taught, or any other thing you like. Sometimes it’s also just nice to watch others and have a chat with your fellow monkeys.
About the teachers
Lennert and Yvonne are both certified Yoga and AcroYoga teachers, and have years of experience in teaching. They are used to adapt the classes to different levels, with easier and more challenging variations of poses, washing machines and flows. Everyone will work on their own level!
There are no pre-requisites for the Sunday classes and you don’t need to bring a partner. Everyone is welcome, from beginner to well-seasoned practitioner!
For the Saturday workshops we ask a certain level for each topic. Yu can check the pre-requisites here.

FAQ
What Is AcroYoga?
AcroYoga is a combination of Yoga, (Partner) Acrobatics and Thai Massage.
Is AcroYoga A Cardio Workout?
No, but it will help you to get or keep in shape.
What Should I Bring?
A water bottle and a smile 🙂 For the outdoor classes warm cloths, a towel or yoga mat.
I Have No Experience, Can I Still Join?
Yes! We love new students! It’s always a pleasure to see the joy and sparkles in their eyes, doing their first tricks and poses! We’re happy to learn you the basics!
Do I Need To Be Strong For AcroYoga?
No. We will teach you to make good alignments and then it’s all about the bones that carry the weight. We call this bone-stacking, where the weight goes trough the bones without overusing the muscles.
What Should I Wear?
Anything easy and comfortable. Leggings and not too loose t-shirts will help not to get entangled. Pants without pockets is also preferable.
Do I Need To Bring A Partner?
No. There will be enough people to work with. You are more than welcome to come alone.
