Clean Beach Yoga at Kijkduin: Free Classes with Beach Cleanup

You've seen the heartbreaking images: plastic choking our oceans and harming marine life. Make a real difference by joining Clean Beach Yoga, led by experienced instructor Carla Groen.

Every Sunday on Kijkduin beach, Carla hosts sessions that combine wellness with environmental action. Shocked by the trash left after busy summer days, she shares, "This cause is close to my heart. During my yoga school's summer break, I'm offering beach classes—bring a bag of beach waste, and it's free."
