Athlete of the Month November: Jilly Kloosterman

Athlete of the Month: Jilly Kloosterman

For the month of November, Jilly Kloosterman has been selected as Athlete of the Month. After her previous yoga school closed, she joined InTension for our yoga classes. When she had her first child, she appreciated being able to use our babysitter while she worked out. Over time, she began taking more and more group classes in addition to yoga classes. Jilly now works out 4 to 5 times a week. She enjoys participating in Power, Hit IT, and Kick IT classes. She also has personal training once a week with NickTraint. Her goal is to stay healthy and fit and to get stronger. Working out helps her clear her head and gives her time for herself. Jilly thinks InTension is a great gym because there’s something for everyone and every age. She loves the beautiful new equipment, the fun classes, and the friendly staff. Many thanks also to the babysitters on her behalf: they now regularly look after her second child, and without them, Jilly wouldn’t have been able to be here so often! We congratulate Jilly as our November Athlete of the Month. She gets this month’s membership for free!

SPECIAL: Women’s Circles

SPECIAL: Women’s Circles

Our staff member Esther invites a maximum of nine women to our yoga room on November 21st for a warm, connecting Women’s Circle. As we kicked off circles earlier this year, it coincides with the Chinese New Year of the Snake, the year of transformation.

Inviting, discovering, welcoming, and sharing insights that resonated with this theme was and remains a fascinating experience. Are there any things you still need to let go of in order to grow as a person? Can you tell me about a comfortable jacket (snakeskin) that fits like a glove, but gets in the way now? We will gather together with like-minded women, regardless of their experience or age, in a “safe space” that fosters warmth, safety, connection, and sharing.

Everyone is welcome to join and participate in the various Women’s Circle rituals, regardless of their experience with circling.

Is this something that resonates with you? Would you like to know more? Visit the website www.EssistancebyEsther.nl! Send an email to info@In-tension.nl OVV Esther’s Women’s Circles to participate.

Dates:

  • Friday, November 21, 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM
  • Friday, December 19, 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM
  • Sunday, January 18, 12:00 PM – 2:30 PM

Fee: €35 for 1 circle, €60 for 2 circles, and €75 for 3 circles.

Register early, as space is limited.

Athlete of the Month: Sofie Beeken

Having spent the last six years away from InTension, Sofie returned last summer after a long break. After her shoulder injury, her friends motivated her to get back to work. She is now completely addicted to SPINNING. It took a few lessons for her to get swept up in the positive energy and enthusiasm of cycling! Spinning classes are her favorite, but she also loves POWER or YOGA classes and saunas. Her main goal is to build more fitness and strength, and feel great about herself as a result. She likes InTension’s open atmosphere: everyone’s welcome. Her trainers make it feel very personal to her. This makes exercising even more fun for her. Congratulations to Sofie for being September’s Athlete of the Month. It’s free for her this month!

Athlete of the month April: William Mooijman

William Mooijman has been named April’s athlete of the month. The 34-year-old William previously trained outside under the guidance of personal trainers Lorenzo and Kevin during the Corona period. He moved to Scheveningen last year. Since he lives opposite InTension, exercising at InTension was an easy choice for him. We see him at least 5 to 6 times a week. Boxing and strength training are his favorite sports days. Aside from his personal training sessions, William also attends instructor Luuk’s boxing class on Thursday evenings at 8 p.m. While William enjoys training alone, he prefers training with a buddy or in a group. Because of this, Nick and Luuk are currently leading a 12-week fitness program. By doing so, he is able to take his training to a higher level in a group setting, increasing strength, weight, and fitness. Fitness, health, and strength are important to William. As a result of the hard training at InTension and the social environment at the gym, he has energy for ten! Our congratulations go out to William on his selection as athlete of the month. For the entire month of April, his membership is on us!

InTension is expanding its outdoor program

Dear members,

Good news! InTension is expanding its program with outdoor Spinning and Fitness lessons! Even though we have to remain closed for the foreseeable future, we will add these outdoor lessons on the square in front of InTension to our online live lessons and Bootcamp trainings starting from 1st of April. These outdoor Spinning and outdoor Fitness classes will be taught by our trusted instructors.

The outdoor Fitness lessons are intensive 30-minute Total Body workouts based on functional exercises. They resemble the well known InTensity lesson. The lessons are open to everyone to train at his or her own level. For our 55 + group we are also organizing an adapted outdoor 55 Fit Fitness lesson on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:45 – 11:15. We will also offer an outdoor Youth Fitness lesson on the square twice a week on Mondays and Wednesdays from 17:30 – 18:15.

During the outdoor Spinning lessons on our spinning bikes, the participants receive headphones. This way they can hear the music and the instructions of the instructor. These 30-minute classes can be perfectly combined with our outdoor Fitness classes.

Of course these lessons will be conducted within the frameworks outlined by the government on the basis of the RIVM guidelines. It is important that you stay at home if you have complaints such as a fever, flu, cold and / or other Corona symptoms. We ask that you avoid physical contact with the instructor and the other participants and to keep a minimum distance of 1.5 meters. It is mandatory to bring your own towel and something to drink. There is no room for changing and visiting the toilet is unfortunately not possible. We use the ‘come & go’ system for the flow of these lessons: make sure that you are present on the square just before the start of the lesson and immediately leave the square after the cleaning all the materials you used, so that the next group can start right away with no delay.

You can only participate in our outdoor lessons if you reserve through our online reservation system. We are happy to share with you that our new version of this reservation system can be used starting Monday March 29th through a cool new appwe will be using! You will be able to make reservations for our group lessons via your own account (and cancel if necessary) and also view your personal details. From the same date, our current reservation system will be off air and so you will have to use this new app to reserve the lessons in our outdoor group lesson schedule. If you have not yet received a personal email with the link for downloading the new app and your new login details on Monday, March 29th, or if you have any questions about the use of the new app, send an email to info@in-tension.nl

In the future when the gym opens back up you can also use the app to schedule your fitness appointments (fitness test, explanation schedules, etc) with one of our instructors, track your fitness results, watch online workouts and much more! We will update you more about this when the time comes.

If the outdoor lessons on the square cannot take place due to weather conditions, you will receive an email no later than 08:30 letting you know about the morning lessons and around 17:00 about the evening lessons. So keep a close eye on your inbox if you are unsure whether or not the lesson will go ahead.

Because the outdoor lessons are dependent on the weather conditions, we will also continue to offer a number of online live lessons over the coming period. Are you not receiving invitations for these every day? Send us an e-mail at info@in-tension.nl. You can also review our online lessons at any time. To do this, press the “Yes, I want to participate” button in the invitation email of the relevant lesson and you can view it again.

View our full schedule for the online live lessons and the outdoor group lessons starting 1st of May.

All online live lessons and outdoor group lessons will also continue on all upcoming holidays (Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday)!

We hope to see you soon!

Active greetings,

The InTension Team.
