About Us

Fertility – Pregnancy – New Motherhood

Studio Vandaan specializes in yoga, massage and retreats before, during and after pregnancy. We offer small scale and personal fertility, prenatal and postnatal yoga classes as well as massages, workshops, courses and retreats, especially designed for new mothers and mothers-to-be.

All our activities are guided by our team of loving and professional female teachers, who aim to give new moms and babies the best start in life. We are looking forward to meet you!

Studio Vandaan once started with small-scale Vinyasa yoga classes in Danielle’s own living room in Utrecht. When eight of her best friends fell pregnant in 2012, she decided to dive into the subject by signing up for the Birthlight prenatalyoga teacher training in London. She loved the training and soon started one prenatal yoga class for her friends. Yet friends brought friends and these friends brought other friends… Before she new it, Danielle made the decision to specialize completely in everything related to pregnancy; yoga, massage and birth preparation. We are now more than 10 years later and studio Vandaan has grown into the most famous provider of pregnancy yoga in and around Utrecht.

We are here because we care

Our mission is to give new life the best start possible. With love, expertise, real attention and our warm hands, we aim to support women before, during and after their pregnancy.

We welcome you for your transformation into motherhood.

Experiences with us

“Danielle is a fantastic yoga teacher! Her classes are an extension of her personality: she is clear, very knowledgable, optimistic, has a great sense of humor and is, most of all, a very warm person. I can highly recommend her as a yoga teacher as I am very enthusiastic about her!”

– Anne

“I honestly couldn’t be more thankful for your guidance and advice. I basically gave birth using the birthing exercises and positions you suggested. Thing is, they were very impressed by my movements and the breathing. I gave your name to all the personnel that helped me deliver my baby. They couldn’t believe I gave birth based on yoga coaching.

To be honest I will miss our prenatal sessions having also my little one in my tummy. But I’m looking forward to our next classes. I enjoy yoga a lot but you are one of the few instructors that motivated me so much to keep going. Thank you very much again for everything.”
