Yoga teacher in Santorini | Hatha flow yoga | Prenatal and Postnatal (also Mum & Baby) yoga | Yoga retreats and yoga holidays | Group and Private classes
Leuk om (digitaal) kennis te maken! Mijn naam is Jessica Zijlema. Ik woon samen met mijn man Sander en onze dochter Sarah in Tiel. Vanuit mijn bedrijf Essential Health bied ik in de Betuwe zwangerschapsyoga, postnatale yoga en mama & baby lessen aan, zowel in groepsverband als individueel.
Sinds 2007 werk ik al als Yoga- en Pilatesdocent en Masseur. Tijdens mijn zwangerschap en bevalling heb ik enorm veel gehad aan de ontspannings- beweeg- en ademhalingstechnieken die ik daaruit kende, en ik had daardoor een prachtige, bijzondere en snelle bevalling. Dit wilde ik graag delen met andere (aanstaande) mama’s! Daarom ben ik na de geboorte van onze dochter gestart met het geven van zwangerschapsyoga lessen en zwangerschapsmassages.Toen een paar jaar later HypnoBirthing op mijn pad kwam, was de cirkel voor mij echt rond.
Het is zo mooi om te zien hoe ontspanning en het vertrouwen in je lichaam je helpt tijdens de geboorte van je kindje, waardoor de bevalling voorspoediger en comfortabeler verloopt. En ik vind het bijzonder dat ik jou als aanstaande ouder de tools mag aanbieden om met vertrouwen en vanuit je eigen kracht je voor te bereiden op een prachtige, ontspannen en mooie komst van je kindje!
Naast yoga kun je bij mij in de studio terecht voor nog veel meer als (aanstaande) ouder, ook samen met je baby of kind:
- ZwangerschapsYoga
- ZwangerschapsPilates
- ZwangerschapsMassage
- Cursus Voorbereiden op de Bevalling

- Mama & Baby Yoga en -Pilates

Pre Natal Yoga
These pre-natal yoga classes are perfect for ‘mums-to-be’ from 12 weeks onwards.
The gentle yet effective approach of these classes aims to internalise the practices and techniques in order to build a body memory that can be called upon with ease, instinctively in daily life, during labour and beyond.
Pregnancy yoga benefits include:
Increase awareness in body, breath and postural changes.
Expanding breathing capabilities in order to breathe for two, assist during labour and birth.
Pelvic awareness (unfold range of movements and as foundational support for the body).
Tone and release pelvic floor muscles in preparation for labour and beyond.
Boost energy and reduce fatigue.
Increase resilience and ease tensions in both body and mind.
Yoga for common pregnancy issues: pelvic girdle pain, encouraging baby into optimal birthing position, better sleep, etc.

My philosophy is to promote positive touch and accessible yoga. Providing a safe space where we can be honest and open about our experiences as women and building a community where friendships are made.

I feel very lucky in my vocation. I love what I do and I continue to learn from every woman and baby that I meet.
