Zion
My name is Sione Twilt: (Yin Yoga) teacher, speech therapist and researcher. As a speech therapist, I have individually guided many adults with voice, breathing and tension complaints. During my treatments I always worked from a holistic approach, combining many different breathing, relaxation and tuning methods. In my experience, all parts of our body are connected to each other and our body is inextricably linked to our environment. In my work as a teacher and coach at the Speech Therapy program (Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences) I find it important to be in contact with students. For years I have coached students in becoming aware of their way of communicating, moving, breathing and speaking. That is a beautiful and rewarding process to guide. In recent years, the focus of my work at the university of applied sciences has shifted to conducting and supervising research. That was a very good step for 'my head', but I missed working with 'my body' and guiding others in increasing their body awareness. From my fascination for the fascia (the connective tissue) and my years of experience as a 'yogi', I started a Yin Yoga teacher training in 2019. This led to following and completing a series of inspiring Yin courses: the physical body, the energetic body, myofascial release & myoyin and Thai yoga massage. Now I combine my newly acquired knowledge and expertise with my years of experience as a speech therapist and teacher.
