yoga

Yoga has many scientifically proven benefits. Various yoga exercises improve the ability to concentrate and become aware of the functioning of your mind, as well as increase your ability to relax. Yoga helps the body recover and, when practiced regularly, also calms the over-alert nervous system and improves sleep quality – which surely everyone knows has a huge impact on overall well-being. Various physical exercises in yoga increase strength, balance and mobility. Yoga strengthens your deep muscles in particular, and with gentle movement brings a great counter-effect to a sedentary lifestyle. Different breathing exercises massage the body from the inside and create space to breathe.

If you are a beginner, we recommend starting at our beginners classes. You can start yoga and participate in our classes at any time of the year. Suitable classes for beginners include calmer yoga classes such as hatha, gentle morning, gentle evening and yoga for beginners. During these lessons, you will get in touch with yoga practice through soothing physical exercise. As a beginner, you can also try calming yin yoga, which has no separate starting levels.

In principle, we always recommend pregnancy yoga during pregnancy, which is organized at the beginning of autumn and the beginning of spring. However, if you already have a yoga background, you can join our weekly classes as you please. In this case we recommend gentle and calm classes. You can also attend yin classes, but take special care as during and after pregnancy the body’s supporting tissues are naturally more loose.

No special preparation for the lessons is required. However, we recommend drinking enough water and eating well in advance of the start of the class. Drink and eat about 1-2 hours before your arrival to the class.

Wear comfortable clothes and a yoga mat to the studio, if you own one. We also have mats in the studios, if needed. Yoga is done barefoot, but also bring warm clothes for final relaxation and gentle exercises. As the nervous system calms down, the body also calms down and cools down.

Classes can always be booked for the current day and for the next 6 days. A new day opens for booking every midnight.

If you have received a sport to the class form the waiting list, you will receive information about this by e-mail. Please note that you must have approved email notifications (account management) to receive these. You will receive information about the spot within the cancellation times, i.e. no later than 10 hours before the start of the morning class or 6 hours before the start of the evening class. Unfortunately, it is not possible to send text messages about free spots.

We do hope you arrive on time. The reception always opens 15 minutes before the class. Unfortunately, we can’t let people in after the class has started and doors have been closed, since we must give peace to those in class.

After the free cancellation window closes, you can still make a Late cancel, which will free up space for someone else.
