Pranayama & Meditation Classes in the Netherlands
Learn to breathe on purpose, then learn to sit still
Everyone breathes, and almost no one is taught how. Pranayama is the part of yoga that trains the breath deliberately, slowing it, lengthening the exhale, balancing one nostril against the other, and meditation is what that steadier breath makes possible. This class puts both at the centre instead of leaving them for the last five minutes.

Learn to breathe on purpose, then learn to sit still
A meditation app plays a calm voice and hopes you follow. It cannot tell that you are holding your breath, straining at the top of the inhale or drifting off after a minute. A live mentor watches the breath itself, corrects the count and the posture, and builds your sitting time up gradually so stillness becomes a skill rather than a struggle.
The Dutch Indian community is small enough that families often tell us there is no local option at all — no weekend class, no temple programme within a sensible drive. That absence, rather than dissatisfaction with an alternative, is usually why families in Amsterdam, Eindhoven, Utrecht and Rotterdam come to us.

Batch timings for the Netherlands
Live classes on CET, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 5:00 to 7:00 PM CET, the same window as Germany, which means Dutch and German families often share a batch. Saturday mornings run too. Because batches can be small in this region, mentors have more time per child than average.
Many of our Dutch families work in and around Eindhoven and Amsterdam. Several have asked for grandparents in India to sit in on the class, which we encourage.

Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us who the class is for
Call or WhatsApp us and say who is joining and where they are starting from. For pranayama & meditation classes that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to their age, body and experience.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with you for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class and batch of ours.
3. Pick a slot that fits your week
We place you in a batch scheduled for CET, around work, family and daily routine rather than across them.
“My son now begins every day with his shlokas, chanting them perfectly, and actually understanding what they mean. What moved me most is how much calmer and more focused he has become.”
Pranayama & Meditation Classes in the Netherlands, FAQs
No. Sitting posture is taught in class, and a chair is fine. If you would like a fuller physical practice as well, our adult and senior yoga tracks include asana.
