Personal coaching, entirely for you

With personal 1-on-1 coaching we work step by step towards a body and mind that feel stronger, more supple and more relaxed. Entirely tailored to your pace and possibilities.

✓ Fully tailored to you. ✓ All attention on your goals. ✓ For beginners and experienced practitioners alike.

Is this programme right for you?

You have physical complaints or are recovering from an injury.

You are looking for personal guidance because you do not just want to practise, but truly want to experience a positive change.

Together we work on more strength, flexibility, balance and trust in your body.

What can you expect?

During every session you receive full personal attention. Together we work on a programme that suits your body, goals and possibilities.

Afterwards, participants often experience more trust in their body, less tension and pain, more strength and flexibility, more calm and energy, and more joy in moving.

Experiences from participants

Daphne: "When I started Pilates, I could usually do the exercises. Yet I kept doubting whether I was really doing them right..."

Esther: "Gerri helped me regain trust in my body and find joy in moving again."

About me

I am Gerri Douw, yoga and pilates teacher and founder of Yoga Under Construction in Groningen. I have been teaching since 2005.

My coaching is not about the perfect pose, but about your body, your possibilities and your personal goals. I take the time to listen, think along and adapt exercises to what you need at that moment.

Besides yoga and pilates I specialise in Yoga Nidra and other relaxation techniques. That means I can help not only with building strength, flexibility and balance, but also with reducing stress, tension and overstimulation. Depending on your needs we combine movement with relaxation, so body and mind support each other in the recovery process.

My goal is that you not only learn to move better, but also learn to feel, relax and trust your body again.

Why choose Yoga Under Construction?

At Yoga Under Construction it is not about performing, but about attention. In a safe and calm setting I help you step by step to move with confidence again. Every session is personal, unhurried and fully tailored to what you need. Sometimes you do not need a group class, but someone who truly thinks along with you.

Only 2 places available

To give every participant the attention they need, there are currently only two places available for an individual programme.

From complaints and uncertainty to trust in your body: I would love to help you take that first step. Book a free introductory conversation today via the contact form or send me a WhatsApp message.
