β€œThe beauty of yoga and its practice is that it is always changing. It changes into what you need at that specific time or what you are looking for. It also changes the way you perceive your world and others. It makes it easier to be happy and content and to be in the moment and find a sense of calmness in yourself.”

 

About Isis du Jour

I am Isis du Jour, yoga teacher based in Haywards Heath, West Sussex.
In the beginning of 2017, I moved to the UK with my husband and our son from Amsterdam, where I have grown up.
Back in the Netherlands I have been teaching yoga at different locations & settings.

I have first came in contact with yoga myself during my first trip to India, many years ago. 
The practice of yoga made me realize the change which appears, the moment you integrate yoga into your daily life.
The moment you start practicing yoga on- and off the mat, something magical starts to happen.
Through further study, not only of the physical part of yoga, but also the philosophy, I really became convinced,
that yoga is always going to be a part of my life and lifestyle.

Being settled in the UK, I have the privilege to share my passion for yoga as my job and I am teaching yoga and
SUP yoga classes in and around Sussex. It brings me a lot of joy and satisfaction to share yoga and mindful practices with others
as I believe that it can do so much good and contributes to a more conscious and healthy lifestyle for all.

I have been training with some great teachers in Amsterdam and abroad. 
I am certified in teaching Vinyasa Yoga, Yin/Restorative Yoga, SUP Yoga and I am also a qualified Prenatal yoga teacher.
After my first teacher training in 2013 I came to the conclusion that there is still so much more to learn and that this was just
the start of a journey, therefore I believe that besides a teacher, I will forever be a student myself as well.
I challenge myself to keep practising, learning and exploring new ways, by an intensive self practice and by trainings
and workshop led by other inspiring teachers from different styles and disciplines.

As a teacher I am there to guide you through your experience on the mat and will take you through
your practice step-by-step. I feel privileged to be there for you and I would love to meet you at the yoga mat (or on the paddle board!)
