Welcome to JetYoga! I am Jet, a passionate and dedicated practitioner of yoga, meditation and breath work. When I attended my first yoga class I was used to competitive types of sports and therefore my first yoga experience felt a bit weird. However, it did something with me so I decided to give it a try. Soon I felt the physical and mental benefits the practice gave me and yoga & meditation have been a part of my life ever since.

My yoga journey started in 2005 with studying the basics of yoga with my first yoga teacher, after that I became a certified power yoga, yin yoga and kids yoga teacher and Breathwork coach. I also hold degrees in resilience training and kids counseling.

I am grateful for the time I was working at the Toon Hermans Huis which gave me the opportunity to practice yoga & meditation with individuals who are dealing with cancer or are recovering from it. This developed a deep understanding of the psychological challenges people face when dealing with a life threatening disease or injury.

On a yoga retreat in Costa Rica in 2015 I met my current meditation teacher Whit Hornsberger, who is a student and teacher of the wisdom traditions of Theravada Buddhism, Buddhist mind training. After many years of practicing the teachings Whit shares from his experiences in the Buddhist monasteries of Burma (Myanmar) and attending one of his vipassanā retreats I am very grateful to now be a student of his Heart-Mind training in which he shares these inspiring teachings with a traditional and scientific approach. Although life itself is my biggest teacher these beautiful Buddhist teachings support me every step of the way and as a result thereof are integrated in my yoga & meditation classes.

My classes are characterized by my personal approach to my students, making the practice suitable for everybody regardless of their yoga and/or meditation experience. I love the interaction of energy when practicing together with my students. This always supports me to take the practice to a deeper level.


Namaste, Jet
