I'm Jenny Schoenmann — yoga teacher, breathwork coach, soul-based coach, and certified menopause specialist, based in The Hague.

I've been teaching for over 13 years, across three countries, to hundreds of women — in private sessions, group classes, retreats, and corporate workshops.

I grew up in Germany in a home where taking care of yourself was simply part of life. My grandmother had her own garden and a deep belief in the body's ability to heal itself — herbs, natural remedies, and a quiet trust in nature that I carry with me still. Yoga was there too, from early on. Slow, woolly, a lot of yawning — I called it woolsock yoga as a child. I didn't appreciate it then. I do now.

I spent a decade as a professional makeup artist — working across Europe for photoshoots, film productions, and the beauty industry. It was a creative life I loved. But what stayed with me wasn't the work under the lights. It was what happened beside them: watching a woman look in the mirror and, quietly, feel more like herself. That inner shift — I've been working with it ever since.

Then came the moves. Different cities. Then countries. Germany to Qatar. Qatar to the Netherlands. Each time, I rebuilt my professional life from scratch while raising two children.

In my early forties, my body started changing in ways that frightened me. Heart palpitations. Tinnitus. Exhaustion that sleep didn't touch. Mood swings I didn't recognise. I was sent to the emergency room. Tests were done. No clear diagnosis was found. I started researching on my own, found other women with the same story, and understood — with real anger — how profoundly underserved this transition is. For women everywhere. And for women at work in particular.

That realisation changed the direction of everything.

I trained as a Menopause Yoga Teacher with Petra Coveney, one of the leading specialists in the field. Combined with my background in breathwork, soul-based coaching, and over a decade of teaching, I now offer what I could not find when I needed it most: real, practical, embodied support for women navigating this transition — privately and inside organisations.

In 2022, my book The Magical Morning Method was published by Kosmos.

How I can help

Everything I do comes back to one thing: ease. Not as an escape from life, but as a way of living it more fully.

For over a decade, that has been the thread running through every session, every workshop, every woman I've worked with — making genuine wellbeing accessible. Not as a luxury, not as a project, but as something woven into daily life.

I work with women one on one, and with organisations who understand that a team's resilience starts with the people in it.
