Janneke van Amelsvoort
Founder of Aerial Yoga Nederland. During her burnout 14 years ago, she saw someone in the USA putting an aerial acrobatic silks in a hammock shape and calling it aerial yoga. She started to develop her own version with her background as a dancer, aerial acrobat and yoga instructor.
She plans to fly until she turns 80 and beyond!
Janneke was the first to bring Aerial to Holland and has watched it expanded organically. More and more people are interested in experiencing how empowering and at the same time relaxing the support of the hammock is. Janneke is now offering teacher trainings for since 2008 and has created multiple different modules with hammock high and low.
Janneke has a rich experience and training: Rotterdam Dance Acadamy, Theater school Amsterdam, Circus school Sao Paolo Brasil, Circusschool Leeuwarden, Vijnana & Yin Yoga instructor training, as well in Antigravity yoga and Gravotonics, Masters of Consciousness.
