Source Teacher Spotlight ✨

Saskia joined us for our yin, restorative, AND 200-hr trainings in 2025! She’s been a calm and constant presence at The Source in our first year 🌼

Saskia is a creative and playful yoga teacher based in Leeuwarden, The Netherlands, with a background in expressive arts therapy.

Saskia first came to yoga as a student, simply to stay active. Over time, her practice became a journey from living in her head to truly listening to her body.

In different phases of her life, yoga has met her in different ways. At first, her practice taught her to slow down, listen to her boundaries and honor rest. More recently, it has invited her to gently meet her edges.

Discovering strength, capacity and confidence she didn’t know her body had. This evolving relationship with the body continues to shape the way she teaches.

With her therapeutic background, Saskia deeply values the connection between body, emotions and nervous system.

If you’re in Leeuwarden, you can find her teaching at :

* Vinyasa | Saturday at 9:30
* Restorative | Sunday at 18:45
* Sub teacher for Hatha (flow) and Yin regularly as well

Alongside her regular classes, Saskia is feeling called to create more tailored yoga spaces for specific life journeys, with a focus on nervous system regulation, recovery and therapeutic support.

She looks forward to creating programs, both in person and online, for people seeking a deeper, more embodied approach to healing and self-connection.

We are so grateful for Saskia’s friendly and fiery soul and all the light she brings to our circle of teachers 🔥

✨ And delighted to share that she will be assisting our 2026 yin training ! ✨

Meet Kirsty 💛

Now teaching in Edinburgh, Scotland

We’re so excited to begin spotlighting the amazing graduates from our recent 200-Hour Teacher Training - teachers who are now starting to share their practice with communities around the world.

Kirsty began to deepen her practice with yoga during the 2020 lockdown period, when she felt her own anxiety, chronic pain and fatigue needed her to listen to, and nourish her body in different ways.

A qualified psychotherapist, Kirsty believes deeply in the connection between our minds, our emotions and our body, and her practices are rooted in connection with self and accepting ourselves as we show up on the mat.

Kirsty completed her 200-Hour YTT in Hatha and Vinyasa at Source Yoga in Portugal, in October 2025, and loves to incorporate the various aspects of yoga in her classes, including pranayama, meditation and asana.

She believes that yoga is much more than creating ideal postures on the mat, and aspires to make her classes a safe and nurturing environment.

We’re so proud of you Kirsty! And grateful to the insight, compassion, and humour you bring to our circle of teachers 🙏🏻💕

🧘‍♀️ If you’re an Edinburgh local, you can find her teaching regularly at the .yogashala

• Beginners’ Yoga | Sundays at 12:30

• Hatha Flow | Thursdays at 18:30
