WHAT TO EXPECT

An afternoon that moves at its own pace. There will be yoga, some quiet time, acupuncture, sound and space to simply sit and journal. No agenda to perform, nothing to keep up with. Just an afternoon built around care, rest and being with other people for a few hours.

About This Day

Standstill is the first collaboration between Nuno and Marlon , yoga teachers based in Amsterdam. Two different practices brought together for one afternoon, each shaped by years of working with the body in their own way.

The afternoon includes yoga, sound and acupuncture, moments of journalling and reflection, and gather together for shared experiences with some food. Everything is designed to unfold naturally , moving between activity and rest as the we settle in deep mid in the autmn season.

WHY WE ARE DOING THIS
Nuno and Marlon have known each other for years and have talked for a long time about creating something together. This day comes from wanting to offer something different: an afternoon where nothing needs to be produced or achieved, where the only task is to slow down and be present with a small group of people in the city where we live.

LOCATION
This afternoon will be held in Amsterdam Noord at the beautiful HAVEN yoga & pilates studio. A little retreat away from home in the home city.

YOGA & MEDITATION
@thisishowmolflows

‘’Surround yourself with people that are soul food.‘’ - 17 years ago a friend took Marlon to his first (power)yoga class. Although he didn't like it very much, it made him curious for more and bought a dvd the day after. The weeks after more dvd's followed, and he started to practise daily. The way his body got challenged physically and mentally got him hooked. A few years later he decided to take a teacher training to deepen his practise. The year after the second one. After that he started teaching. To take his teachings to the next level a third training in Costa Rica followed. His classes are challenging, but playful which will make you, while focusing on the breath stronger, more flexible and leaving with a smile.
