SOME INSIGHTS

History of Lasya

Founded in 2014

Lasya was founded in 2014 by Jans van Ool, Maaike Zwart and Alba van der Have. Even though we are a young association, we have approximately 170 members. 

The name "Lasya"

The term “Lasya” refers to a dance performance by the Hindu goddess Parvati. This dance was was filled with happiness and shows grace and beauty. 

First lustrum in 2018 - 5 years

We had our first lustrum year in 2018. For this year, we had a special committee: the LustCie. This committee organised all kinds of activities with regards to our lustrum!

Logo

Our logo is based on a trick executed by one of our members. This trick is called a Shoulder Mount – a way to invert in the pole by rolling on your shoulder. This requires quite some muscles in your arms and abs!

The GAdCie

The GAdCie (General Advice Committee) is there to advise all members AND our Board. They consist of previous Board members and active members that want the best for N.S.P.V. Lasya. If the Board has a problem, the GAdCie will always be there for them. The GAdCie is also available for help to Lasya members. Do you have a question and you cannot go to the Board?
