Ashtanga Yoga & Art therapy
in Eindhoven & Veghel

Welcome!

We invite you to take practice.

The Mysore Ashtanga Yoga method is perfect for anyone seeking to enhance their physical, mental, and spiritual growth.

Passed down through generations, this traditional practice offers a powerful discipline for the body and mind, serving as a transformative path for personal development.

Introduction to Ashtanga Yoga

We teach traditional Mysore-style Ashtanga yoga, following the method taught at the SYC institute in Mysore, India.

What is Mysore-style?

It’s a self-paced practice in a group setting, where students receive personalized guidance and adjustments from the teacher. Adjustments are optional and always respect the student’s preferences.

How it Works:

In practice, the Ashtanga Yoga Mysore method involves these key steps:

Self-paced practice: Students begin at their own level, memorizing the sequence of poses (asanas) from the Primary Series onwards. They move through the postures at their own rhythm, guided by their breath.
Guided by the teacher: A teacher offers individual adjustments, corrections, and encouragement. They help students refine their practice, ensure proper alignment, and provide support tailored to each student’s needs.
Focus on breath and movement: Practitioners connect breath with each movement, maintaining a steady flow. The breathing (free breathing with sound) is emphasized, keeping the mind centered and the energy flowing.
Building discipline and consistency: The Mysore practice encourages daily repetition, fostering self-discipline, patience, and deeper awareness of the body-mind connection.
Freedom within structure: While following a fixed sequence, students have the freedom to progress at their own pace, deepening their practice gradually and with focus.

Beginners start with short sessions (about 20 minutes), gradually increasing as they progress.

This method ensures a safe and transformative practice, guided step by step by the teacher.

What is Art-therapy?

Art therapy is a method that uses creative activities to help explore emotions, resolve inner conflicts, and discover new ways to grow.

The goal isn’t to create art.
The goal is to understand yourself through the art you create.

I can’t draw

Artistic skill isn’t required.
The focus is on expression, not perfection.
It’s just for artists or children

Art therapy is widely used in business, coaching, and psychotherapy with adults, teams, and leaders.
I’d rather talk

Verbal insight is powerful, but creative expression can access layers of experience that are hard to reach through words alone.

Forms of Art therapy

I choose the form of art therapy based on your request, emotional state, and goals.

Some techniques help to release tension, others to clarify what's happening inside

or support decision-making.

There’s no universal formula:

I tailor the method to what will work best for you or your team at this moment.

Neurographica

A drawing technique that encourages the flow of thoughts and emotions, helping to find new perspectives.
Metaphoric Associative Cards

Facilitates understanding of underlying emotions and patterns, aiding decision-making and self-reflection.
Drawing and Painting

Encourages free expression, offering a safe space to release stress and process complex emotions.
Mandala

This form of art therapy brings calm, helps organize chaotic thoughts, and connects you with your inner center.

About me

Hi! My name is Natalya Gonta.

At the age of 18, I left Kazakhstan and moved to Prague to pursue a Master’s degree in Management.

Eager to build a career, I quickly found myself working in corporate HR.

While I enjoyed the work, I felt a growing desire to connect with people on a deeper level and help them in a more meaningful way.

In 2018, I discovered Art-therapy and Ashtanga yoga.

These two practices became the foundation of my personal and professional life.

In 2020, I moved to the Netherlands to further immerse myself in art-therapy and deepen my yoga practice.

I studied Ashtanga yoga in India (SYC), Thailand (AYBKK), and Indonesia (Iain Grysak): experiences that enriched both my personal journey and work with others.

By 2023, I opened Art-therapy Education Center, and in 2024, my partner and I started a yoga school: Take Practice Ashtanga Yoga in Eindhoven and Veghel.

Today, I combine my expertise
in art therapy, yoga, and business psychology to help individuals, entrepreneurs, and teams improve communication, tap into their talents, create more meaningful, fulfilling lives and work environments.
