Helma van Doorn
With a background in dancing and fitness for 20 years, Helma started teaching Pilates and Body Shape in 2017. Two years later she traveled to Nepal to attend Hatha Yoga training and successfully obtained her certificate. Due to the Covid lockdown, the initially planned 6 weeks in Nepal became a few months, which she used to explore and deepen her meditation practice.
Helma experienced that consistent practice, moving the body and observing the mind, is a beautiful and solid way to find more inner peace and a better understanding of the Self.
This is why she will always encourage her students to keep showing up on the mat, even when things get tough. It is important to her that everyone feels comfortable and safe in her class, so she will guide with thorough explanation and individual attention. Students learn to move mindfully: with a focus on alignment, muscle engagement, breathing and awareness of thoughts and feelings.
Helma enjoys a chat with her students after class. Please feel free to share your experience with her!
