I have been a seeker and I still am, but I stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my Soul. ”
– Rumi

Aliye van Pijkeren
At the age of 17 I had a "deep spiritual experience". I had no choice but to follow my own path. And I started to deepen myself through meditation, mindfulness & yoga. I have practiced various meditation and yoga styles. Including Buddhist meditation and Astanga Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga and Hatha Yoga. It has already given me many special insights, experiences & transformations. And you know what? I never stop learning... My life is dedicated to deepening, transformation, challenges and renewal.
You were born with wings,
learn to use them and fly.
~ Rumi
My experience
1 / Retreats
I organize retreats myself and am also invited to teach at other organizers. Teaching during retreats is intensive and connecting.
2 / Private Coaching
My sessions are focused on personal guidance and transformation. In 2016 I gave the first 1-on-1 sessions. The sessions are focused on yoga, meditation, mindset and personal growth and often a combination of the above facets.
3 / Theatre
I have over 4 years of experience teaching yoga classes three times a week at a theatre for people with and without disabilities. In other words, inclusive work.
4/ Yoga Studio's
Since 2015 I have been teaching at several yoga studios in the styles: Hatha, Yin, Hatha Vinyasa Flow, Vinyasa Flow, Yoga Nidra and Relax Yoga.
5 / Schools
As a professionally trained yoga teacher I am also qualified to teach children. I have contributed to many summer camps, schools and have taught private groups myself. I have also taught 'on stage' to high school students.

What is so magical
I really enjoy bringing everyone into contact with themselves in an accessible and low-threshold way through yoga, meditation and transformative training.
I feel an enormous peace and joy during a yoga practice. I like to teach everyone to create a safe base in yourself through Yoga and Meditation. And to see the world as a place where your possibilities are unlimited. And to become your best version of yourself. Getting the best out of yourself is the most beautiful gift to yourself and your contribution to this world.

Soulware
SoulWare was founded in 2014 from a deep desire to follow “the call of my soul”.
There is so much potential and possibility within each of us and it simply makes you much happier if you follow the path of your soul.
My path here has been a long one, during which I have experienced many "lessons" to ultimately reach my core and start living from my soul power.
I love purity and real connections. A good conversation, listening so let's connect!

Usually areas overlap, and you benefit from a good plan and structural guidance. I can work with you on this in different ways.

Meditation
Do you have complaints such as insomnia, stress, are you in your head a lot? Do you feel restless?

Soul Path
Do you have important life questions such as: what is my mission? How do I follow my soul path? Why am I here?

Emotional growth
Would you like to feel more free? Do you notice that you have a lot of restlessness and fear in you? Do you suffer from sabotaging thoughts? Hyperventilation and other anxiety complaints that affect your life?

Change
Are you in a phase of a major change or do you want a major change, for example in your career, moving or relationship?

Yoga
Suffering from stiffness? Do you notice that you hold tension in your body? Do you want a better relationship with your body? Are you looking for a healthier lifestyle? Do you want to take better care of yourself?

Mindset
Do you notice that you often get stuck in a recurring pattern, sabotaging thoughts, that hinder your life so much? Do you want to live more from your heart and less from your head?
