YOGA ACUPUNCTURE MEDITATIONWHAT TO EXPECTAn 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.
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.
THE AFTERNOON
Below is the provisional planning of the day.
Arrival 13:30
Start sessions 14:00
End 20:00
Please keep the time after 20:00 open, so nothing needs to feel rushed.

YOGA & MEDITATION
@thisishowmolflows
Marlon Leidsman’s yoga journey started at the age of 25 when a friend convinced him to join a power yoga class. It wasn't love at first sight, but the savasana and the way he felt after class left him wanting more. The very next day he bought a dvd and slowly started a home practice. It was Bryan Kest' Power Yoga dvd that really got him hooked. A year later he did a teacher training to deepen his practice, another teacher training followed. After that he started teaching professionally. Multiple workshops followed and wanting to develop his teachings even more, he completed a second teacher training in Costa Rica.
His vinyasa classes are dynamic, mindful and playful and his flow is completed with mobility. His yin classes will fill you with peace to soothe your mind into resting state.
