Win Hof Method Fundamentals Workshop
Put yourself in the expert hands of a certified WHM Instructor to learn the 3 pillars of the Wim Hof Method: Breathing Technique, Cold Exposure & Commitment. Find out how you can utilise oxygen and cold exposure to optimise body & mind, and learn about the underlying physiology.
Space is limited to allow an intimate quality for ample personal attention, and feedback tailored to your specific situation. Whether you are looking to improve mental or physical performance, relieve symptoms related to an illness, or are just curious to find out what the Wim Hof Method is all about— a WHM workshop offers something for everyone.
The program generally kicks off with an introduction to the Wim Hof Method, and always includes a breathing session and an (optional) ice bath. At the end there is ample room for reflection, and the Instructor is there to answer questions throughout the workshop.
Instructors have their own specialisations, and there is some variation across the individual workshops. A detailed overview of the day is sent out upon registration.
If you have no prior experience with cold exposure, we recommend you finish your showers cold in the days leading up to the workshop. This may be overwhelming at first, but just try to relax, focus on your breath, and bring it into a controlled, steady rhythm.
Who is this workshop for?
This workshop is suitable for everyone, but does require a basic level of health. Out of precaution, we advise against participation during pregnancy, or if you are epileptic. People with cardiovascular issues, or any other serious health conditions should always consult a medical professional before starting the Wim Hof Method.

Partner Yoga Workshop
You thought that yoga is only a solitary practice? Think again, there are many benefits to practicing with another person – ranging from increased fun, deepening of the physical posture to increased trust and connection.
YogaBalance would like to offer you a fun Sunday workshop on the topic of PARTNER YOGA. This will be a 2-hour workshop in which we will explore the basic principles of practicing yoga with another person. It will consist of partner stretches, a Partner Yoga flow and ending in a relaxing Thai massage. This workshop also aims to guide you, in a fun way, into more knowledge about your own habits in relationships, so that hopefully you can take that knowledge to thrive even more in your everyday life.
There are no prerequisites for this workshop, only a willingness to explore a new way of moving and being. You are welcome to come alone or with a partner (whether this is a spouse, family member or a friend…all types of relationships benefit from more connection and time spent laughing together), just make sure to let us know when you arrive if you came with someone.

The Yoga Medicine® Essentials Workshops
After decades of working with clients and training thousands of teachers, we’ve distilled the core components of a therapeutic practice into a series of workshops for both the new and avid yoga practitioner. Each workshop section begins with a short lecture on an anatomical area, then moves on to explore its therapeutic application through practice to bring the information to life.
We will cover topics that are hard to fit into group classes, but are crucial for yoga practitioners and teachers to understand in order to help prevent injuries and optimize the way we move. You will leave with an arsenal of information to instantly incorporate into your practice and teaching.
SHOULDER – September 5th – 10h-13h
The shoulder girdle is a common area of struggle for both the new yogi and the regular vinyasa practitioner. The shoulder joints are inherently inclined toward mobility, creating the need to cultivate stability when we challenge the joints in weight-bearing poses like chaturanga dandasana. During a short lecture you’ll learn the anatomy of the shoulder and a theoretical approach to working with these joints therapeutically before moving through guided practices that enable you to immediately translate this knowledge into your body and onto your mat.
HIP – September 5th – 14h-17h
This workshop explores the need for equality between stability and mobility in the hip joint. In a yoga practice hip stability occurs naturally to some extent, but what each of us needs to maintain balance in this joint can vary greatly from person to person. Through a brief lecture and guided yoga practice, you’ll look at the structure and function of the hip joint and dig in to how to individualize for your personal needs even in a group class.
SPINE – September 6th – 10h-13h
The central theme of this workshop is maintaining the integrity of the precious structures of the spine and all that it entails. Learning to move efficiently, with the support of the core, gluts and legs is key not just in a movement practice but also in the challenges of our lives. Through a combination of theory and practice you’ll understand how how the parts of the spine work together with the core and legs, and learn how to move with solid mechanics that allow you to rewrite your autopilot responses.
MFR – September 6th – 14h-17h
Understand what myofascial release is and how it works before learning a few important things to avoid and how to use it on your own. We’ll move through a myofascial release practice that explores the areas we’ve found to be most helpful in the legs, hips, shoulders and back. You will leave with self-care information that you can use right away. This practice is myofascial release only (no yoga) and is open to everyone, no yoga experience needed.

Shoulder Alignment & Chaturunga Workshop
In this workshop we will take an in-depth look at how to activate all the muscles that support your shoulder girdle for making a safe Chaturunga Dandasana that will in time, begin to feel more light and buoyant. This workshop is great for strengthening the shoulders to help create stability and symmetry around the shoulder joint so your practice can last a lifetime. We will also exam how this new information can help you in other weight bearing asanas. Open to complete beginners of yoga and all levels of experience. Taught by Jennifer Crisman.

Workshop: Building sustainable healthy habits – Embodied Well-being (held virtually)
When was the last time you examined your relationship to exercise, food and work-life balance, and truly looked at how your beliefs and habits in these fields shape your overall health and well-being? These are very common areas that most of us spend a lifetime struggling with. Even though we rationally know that a healthy, functionally mobile and well-nutured body could massively improve the quality of our lives, we still shy away from a healthy routine.
If you find yourself wanting to change your health habits, but end up frequently reverting back to old, familiar patterns? If yes then this 2,5h workshop is for you.
We will be exploring:
Attitudes towards physical activity
Relationship to food
Building sustainable health habits
My aim is not to give you nutritional and exercise advice, rather you can except to learn more about your beliefs and habits surrounding the above topics, as well as come out of it with practical tools that will help you build a sustainable health routine that you can stick to, enjoy and reap benefits from.

Inversions ‘Turn your World Upside Down’
Change your perspective, turn your world upside down! The inverted postures of yoga are some of the most beneficial yet intimidating of the asanas. You will be introduced to and practice postures such as headstand – supported and tripod, forearm stand and handstand. You will be guided through alignment, technique, proper modifications, and how to activate all the muscles that support your shoulder girdle to help you practice with safety. Learn to use the wall and blocks as a way to continue practicing inversions beyond this class. Let go of fear, we are here to support you! No inversion experience is necessary, this is where you come to learn. All are welcome, but it is recommended to have a regular yoga practice for at least six months or talk to the teacher before enrolling. Taught by Jennifer Crisman.
