Grounded Path Yoga School.
Feel your body meet the Earth. When it is grounded, your heart is free to fly into the sky. This union is in perfect balance, and becomes awakened into the timeless journey back to Self.

Amy is the heart behind Grounded Path Yoga School. Her teaching blends intelligent Vinyasa flow, pranayama, restorative practices, mindful alignment and nervous-system friendly guidance. With years of experience teaching diverse students, Amy focuses on creating safe, welcoming spaces where all individuals feel grounded, nourished and supported.
Her approach is clear, warm and accessible, combining embodied practice with philosophy, breath, and inclusive teaching methods.

This training is built on depth, intimacy, and genuine human connection. Held in person and with groups no larger than 10 people, it allows space for the kind of learning that cannot be rushed or replicated through a screen. This training goes beyond classical classroom setting and is instead the kind that is felt in the body, shared in conversation, and lived through practice. With a small group, personal attention, strong foundations in anatomy and intelligent movement, and a beautiful variety of expert guest teachers offering their unique knowledge and perspective, this programme becomes more than a qualification; it becomes a deeply supported journey of growth, embodiment, and transformation.

“Every individual carries deep wisdom and innate courage. Take the first step into a form of leadership grounded in service, inspiring others, creating sanctuaries for healing, and contributing to the world with integrity and heart.”
Where is your practice asking to grow?
The body speaks in sensation, rhythm and with enherint intuition.
Beneath movement and breath there is a deeper current, something both seen and unseen, always guiding us.
What begins to shift when you truly listen?
Our courses and trainings open spaces where this unfolding can be possible. Through movement, breath, stillness, and rest, you can learn to foster a deeper understanding of where you are now and what possibilities may be there for you.
This is an invitation into a deeper study of the body, a steadier trust in inner knowing, and a more intimate relationship with lived experience. Slowness becomes wisdom. Sensation becomes language. Breath becomes a bridge between the outer shape and the inner world. These are the principles of our learnings and are on offer for you within all of our in-person courses and trainings.
Whether guiding a room or sitting with one, the thread remains constant; a space where truth can be felt, where presence deepens, and where each person meets themselves fully, just as they are.
Teacher Training at Grounded Path Yoga is an In-Person Programme in Heiloo & Alkmaar.
A teacher training held, guided and supported for all individuals who feel ready now. Could this be you?
This training is intentionally small, in-person, and deeply human. As the founder of Grounded Path Yoga School and your lead teacher, I personally design, lead and hold the full arc of the programme. You’ll be learning in a close-knit group, with space for questions, reflection, rest and integration; not just information.
The 200-hour Yoga Alliance accredited training takes place in the Alkmaar and Heiloo region and is designed for those who want depth, personal attention, and a grounded learning environment. It’s for students who feel called to teach, and equally for those who want to deepen their relationship with yoga as a life practice. This is an immersion into movement, breath, rest, awareness and community; guided with care and integrity before during and after the training.
Are you ready to begin your teaching journey?
This programme is intimate, transformative and crafted with care. If you feel called to teaching, or deepen your relationship with yoga, then it’s probably your time to lead yourself and others.
I have created a form and the link is below. Here is where you can answer some questions about your specific journey and we can see if the training time and vibe is right for you. There’s no commitment at all, this is just to get in touch with me directly to share your interest and for me to understand a bit about yourself. -Amy

Unlike large schools with a one-size-fits-all syllabus, our programme includes an extra emphasis on Restorative Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and nervous-system sensitive teaching. You’ll learn to teach from a place of steadiness, presence and compassion, skills that transform lives far beyond the mat. You’ll also receive a 50 Hour Restorative Teacher Training certification along with your 200 Hour Level 1 Teacher Training Certification.

What Makes Our Programme Stand Out
Our training integrates:
trauma-aware teaching
inclusivity, accessibility & ethics
community outreach projects
personal reflection
embodied leadership
This is yoga training that expands far beyond asana.
A Simple, Supportive Path Into the Programme
We keep it easy for you to explore the training and decide if it’s right for you.
-
When you complete your training with a pass, you are able to register as a Certified Yoga Instructor through the Yoga Alliance: The international Yoga governing body.
Can I join your email list?
