ABOUT MARIJE:

Marije’s teaching style is understated and compassionate. She has the ability to present complex concepts, and an in-depth knowledge of yogic anatomy and philosophy, in a simple and approachable way, for which she is loved by beginning and advanced practitioners alike.

Marije was born and raised in Amsterdam where, after her training to be a professional ballet dancer, she studied law and worked as a corporate lawyer. She currently lives in a small beach town in New Jersey with her husband and 2 cats and teaches yoga and meditation around the world.

After her foundational and professional level yoga teacher certification at the Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health (MA), she found Sarah and Ty Powers who she considers her most important teachers. Marije is honored and grateful to share and teach Insight Yoga.

ABOUT ANNEMIEKE VAN NOORT

Annemieke is an E-RYT 500 & YACEP teacher with International Yoga Alliance and a certified IFS-practitioner level 3.

She started teaching in 2009. In 2011 she met Sarah Powers, whose teachings and personality had a transformational impact. Throughout the years, Annemieke found her strength and inspiration in the yogic as well as Buddhist & Taoist teachings. Combined with her keen interest in psychology, she developed her own style of teaching, where she focusses on the interrelatedness of our physical wellbeing, as well as our emotions, thoughts and beliefs, in the way we live our life.

Annemieke is in private practice working as a certified IFS-practitioner. She also teaches Yin-Yoga, Vinyasa yoga and meditation classes. Additionally she develops and teaches workshops, leads silent retreats and is a mentor for IYI-students.

ABOUT SARAH JANE:

Sarah Jane studied religion from an anthropological perspective well before discovering Wisdom teachings as a source of personal support. Now, in her classes, workshops, and coaching sessions, she weaves together yogic and Buddhist methods with psychospiritual inquiry as a means to nourish the body, heal the heart, and train the mind. She believes that freedom is possible, in moments, and even amidst difficulty, when we take life as the path. By retreating annually, paying attention to the evolving relationship of Buddhism and psychology, and working to uncover her unconscious bias, she keeps her practice and teaching fresh and responsive. Sarah Jane is also a stepmother, book editor, and musician. She offers deep gratitude to her teachers and spiritual friends.

ABOUT THERESA

In teaching yoga, Theresa’s deepest intentions are to expand minds, open hearts, and be a catalyst for discovering the wisdom and wonder of an embodied life. She offers a varied approach to practice, including soft somatic work, individualized alignment, wisdom teachings, sounding, and open exploration of physical and mental awareness. As a certified Yoga Therapist (IAYT), she believes in doing what works for the individual while recognizing that all approaches which cultivate self inquiry and wisdom are worthy of respect. In all aspects of her life, she makes a sincere effort to “walk the walk” and recognizes that Yoga & Dharma aren’t things to do, but a way to live.
