Mette Grøsland

Tour Guide and Yoga Teacher

Mette Grøsland is a yoga teacher and osteopath, and she owns and runs Ren Yoga in Hokksund, a yoga studio with an associated osteopathic clinic. She has led and organized yoga trips both in Norway and abroad, often with mountain hiking and skiing as part of the experiences. She has taught yoga for many years through weekly courses, workshops, events, and yoga retreats, and has also organized her own yoga festival. Yoga has been an important part of her life for a long time, alongside a long-standing commitment to fitness and movement. Mette is curious about the connections between the body, mind, and the lives we live, and how we as humans are affected by—and cope with—our various life experiences. Her interest in people, culture, and life's many perspectives has taken her to several parts of the world. Through her travels, she has also deepened her practice in various yoga styles and completed certifications in Jivamukti, Yin, Vinyasa, and postnatal yoga, among others. With her background as an osteopath, Mette has a solid and profound understanding of the body's anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics. She combines this with a broad and deep study of yoga philosophy, practice, and other elements. As a teacher, Mette is particularly skilled at making yoga accessible, relevant, and meaningful for each individual. She has a clear intention with her classes, while also teaching intuitively and being attentive to the people present. She has the ability to see the individual within the group, adapt her guidance, and create an experience of being included and cared for. Mette teaches with professional confidence, warmth, and a touch of humor. She makes complex topics understandable without making them superficial, creating a learning environment with room for depth, curiosity, and humanity.
