Csenge van der Heijden

Hi my name is Csenge. Born and raised in Amsterdam, and also half Hungarian. As a child, I was always fascinated by the gemstones my grandmother had and their healing properties she spoke about. This made me aware of the energies around us that we cannot see but most definitely can feel. During this time, I was also involved in sports like gymnastics and dancing.

Later in life, I developed a fascination for taking care of my body through movement (the gym) and healthy nutrition. However, I often found myself dissatisfied, constantly comparing myself to others and the ‘perfect image’ on social media.

About five years ago, I started practicing yoga and immediately fell in love with it. Working in the hospitality sector, which is quite hectic and stressful, yoga became my zen/me-time moment. It allowed me to be present, focus on my feelings within, and move mindfully.

My enjoyment of yoga led me to my curiosity to deepen my understanding of it, which is why I traveled to India in March 2024. This experience was incredibly precious and humbling, as I had the opportunity to learn yoga at its birthplace. I came to understand that yoga is not about competition but about unity and empowering each other. It’s not about achieving a specific pose but about the feeling it gives you. Discovering how strong your body is by connecting with your inner self is something I strive to impart to my students.

Ever since I was little I was taking dance classes weekly, but when yoga came into my life in 2015, I discovered my real passion. In comparison to dancing, yoga gave me more peace by connecting to the breath and because feeling from the inside was more important than what it looked like on the outside. For me, yoga is a way to listen to my body and to bring calmness into the mind.

In my classes, the function and the goal of the poses are much more important than how it looks like. Also, I like to cultivate awareness of the observer that’s always within ourselves, as I’m grateful to have learned from my teachers. I always try to make sure that everyone feels at ease and has a pleasant practice, whether you’re a beginning yogi or more advanced.

Practicing yoga both on and off the mat brings me a lot of freedom in my mind and body and I love to guide others to let them experience the same. I hope to see you soon in my class!

I help people find their balance by bridging yoga and science. In practice that simply means that I combine movement, meditation, breathwork, psychology, and neuroscience to tackle the topic of health from multiple angles. I don't believe one size fits all, and I don't believe one method fixes all. I am a generalist. I tackle problems from an integrative perspective.

Who said we have to be stressed or relaxed? Rational or emotional? Mind or body? Science or yoga? Thinking or feeling? It is my aim to build bridges between what we perceive as opposites, and make you experience both in alteration, or in parallel. My classes are challenging and relaxing, down-to-earth and philosophical, structured and experimental, science and feeling based, fast and slow.

My passions for yoga started in 2016, while I was still a university student. Back then I was blown away by its power in stilling my mind through asanas and movement. It was the first time I could see there was a link between body and mind.

For many years I practiced various styles, such as Ashtanga, vinyasa, hatha, yin and Kundalini (kriya) yoga. In 2021 I did my first Ayurvedic training in Amsterdam to learn about the philosophy behind the yoga poses. In 2023 I decided to deepen my knowledge of hatha yoga joining a training, and a year later I embarked on a journey to become a kundalini yoga teacher and somatic movement practitioner.

Today, I’m 500h+ certified yoga teacher creating unique sessions using vinyasa yoga, Kundalini (or kriya) yoga, pranayama, meditation techniques and somatic movement.

I fell in love with my body and it wasn’t always like this. But I know that you can fall in love with your body too. You just need the right tools to connect to it.

My body-centered practices help you break free from limitations, increase confidence, strengthen your physical body, foster greater awareness and deeper connection with your Body.

As a holistic health practitioner, I know the importance of a relaxed body and handling stress in the correct way. This can be easier said than done – I know the challenge. That is where yin yoga, meditation and breathing exercises became part of my life.

I am specialized in nutrition, stress management, hormones and gut health. When teaching yoga I try to combine my knowledge on these areas with yoga and bring some awareness to the body.

Hopefully you will not only have a relaxed session in the yoga studio, but also a little more knowledge or tools to take with you outside the studio in day to day life.
