“Surya” (Sanskrit for sun) is not just the name of our school, it stands for life and light. Studio Surya is rooted in the tradition of yoga and in the search for clarity, we practice the ongoing balance between effort and ease, between inhaling and exhaling, between ha (sun) and tha (moon), as a way back to unity.

Today, Studio Surya welcomes you in two locations, Antwerp and Boekenberg. Classes run daily, with a calm, structured approach that helps you build a steady practice over time, whether you are completely new to yoga or have years of experience. Alongside classic Hatha Yoga, we also offer Yin Yoga, private sessions, tailored guidance, corporate yoga, and workshops throughout the year.

As a child, I was drawn to Indian colouring books of Hindu deities, images I could look at for hours. My brother and I grew up around yoga philosophy, with a father who started his own yoga school at a young age. We joined his weekend classes among the Buddhists in the Ardennes, in Huy, where I spent hours outdoors, close to nature. Yoga sparked a deep interest in body awareness, something I continued to develop in life itself.

In 2004, after finishing school, yoga returned to my path and I completed a teacher training in India at the International Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre. It became a turning point, I knew I would dedicate my life to yoga. Later, in South Africa, where my mother lived, I began teaching under the name “Yoga for every-one”. My love for yoga, the outdoors, the ocean, surfing, and the sun came together there in a very intense way.

Studio Surya Antwerp is our first location, based in De Studio. For more than 15 years, this space has been the starting point of Surya, a calm studio tucked beneath the cultural centre, created for focused practice and a steady rhythm of classes.

The studio is known for its warm, minimal interior, wooden floors, soft lighting, and a quiet setup that supports concentration. It is a space where students can step out of the pace of the city and return to a consistent practice, with attention to alignment, breath, and presence.

Classes run daily with a clear and grounded approach. The programme includes classic Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga, private sessions, tailored yoga, corporate yoga, and workshops throughout the year. All levels are welcome, with space to practise at your own pace.

Opened at the end of 2025, Studio Surya Boekenberg is our second location in Antwerp, set in a greener, quieter area, away from the noise of the city. The studio was created as a calm and focused space for daily practice, with warm wooden floors, natural light, and a minimal setup that keeps the attention on movement, breath, and stillness.

At Studio Surya Boekenberg we offer classic Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga, private sessions, tailored yoga, and corporate yoga, with workshops throughout the year. Classes are accessible for all levels, whether you are new to yoga or already experienced.

Boekenberg is also a space for rent, with a separate room available for manual therapy or psychotherapy, offering a quiet setting for one-on-one sessions and professional practice.
