What Lente teaches
Most of Lente's classes are Pilates, with reformer and mat work both on the timetable. Lente's reformer classes at De Roos are described as athletic, with higher intensity and full body movement. Lente's mat classes focus on strength and form, and many are listed as all levels, so a newcomer can often find a place to start.
At Yoga Circle in Jordaan Lente teaches yin and sound meditation. In yin, poses are held for several minutes, which softens tight muscles and works the deeper connective tissues. The sessions are longer than Lente's Pilates classes, usually 75 minutes, and are suited to someone looking for stillness.
When and where Lente teaches
Lente's classes most often start in the late afternoon and early evening, with 6:30pm, 5pm and 5:30pm among the busiest start times. The earliest class begins at 3pm, and the latest at 6:30pm. Mondays and Sundays carry the most of Lente's classes, and weekends make up about a third of Lente's week.
De Roos in Museumkwartier is where most of Lente's classes take place, followed by Yoga Circle in Jordaan and When Nature Calls in Grachtengordel-West. Each studio offers a different setting for the same practices, so the choice depends on the neighborhood you want to practice in.
