Welcome to my website. I’m Mary and as a Yoga Teacher (500hrs) and a certified TRE provider (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) I'm passonate to share my knowledge about the effects of aging and improvements we can make to live our lives as fully and joyful as possible, physically, mentally and emotionally.

I'm Dutch and I feel blessed to live partly in the Netherlands and partly in the Scottish Highlands, where my husband’s ancestors came from. We live our lives fully and are grateful for the miracles that crossed our path. Through yoga and TRE I’ve build flexibility, strength and resilience to guide me along obstacles I’ve met in life.

After completing my Master in Sociology in 1991, I was drawn to a more eastern way of thinking and started to study Chinese language, culture and literature. I completed this with a Master in 2006. During my study I started to practise Yoga and fell in love with it, I then joined a 500 hrs yoga teacher training at the Yoga Academy Netherlands in Amsterdam, which I completed with a certificate in 2015 and as such I am a member of the Dutch Yoga Association. I've joined many yoga workshops and trainings on several subjects like face yoga, pelvic floor, breast care, fascia, relaxing the nervous system etc. In February this year I received my certification on Yoga for Posture Improvement.

Since 2024 I work as a certified TRE (trauma & tension release) provider. I've experienced that this method really helps to face our daily challenges.

I’m curious and excited to meet you!
