I am new to yoga, what classes are suitable for me?
- Vinyasa Joy & Freedom: Back to Basics is our best class for beginners. Class sizes tend to be smaller so you will get more personal attention. Classes move at a slower pace and poses are explained in greater detail so you can start off your yoga journey feeling safe and confident.
- Deep Stretch Yin, Gravity® Yoga, Restorative Yoga, & Deep Stretch Flow- are also great yoga classes for beginners as they are on the gentler side and move at a slower pace.
- Private 1 on 1 classes are a great way to begin your yoga journey. Private yoga sessions will offer customized instruction tailored to your body and are particularly helpful if you have a history of injuries. Please fill out or private yoga inquiry form to schedule your session or learn more.
- For more detailed recommendations be sure to checkout our class suggestions page.
Do you offer specials for new students?
Yes! As a new student, you can try your First 21 Days of Unlimited Yoga for only 50€. This is a great way to try out vinyasa yoga and experience different classes. After your intro month, if you’d like to continue with unlimited yoga, we’ve got your covered with our our Flexible Membership.
What should I bring to yoga class?
I suggest you bring a yoga mat, a hair elastic, and some water with you.
Some people like to bring towels.

The practice of yoga supports physical, mental, and spiritual development that allows you to create the best version of yourself.
Yoga may also be an effective tool to help you lose weight, especially the more active forms of yoga. And you may find that the awareness gained through a gentle, relaxing yoga practice helps you to lose weight as well.
Yoga and calorie burning
While yoga isn’t traditionally considered an aerobic exercise, there are certain types of yoga that are more physical than others.
Active, intense styles of yoga help you burn the most calories. This may help prevent weight gain. Ashtanga, vinyasa, and power yoga are examples of more physical types of yoga. These types of yoga keep you moving almost constantly, which helps you to burn calories.
While restorative yoga isn’t an especially physical type of yoga, it still helps in weight loss. One study found that restorative yoga was effective in helping overweight women to lose weight, including abdominal fat.
These findings are especially promising for people whose body weight may make more vigorous forms of yoga difficult.
How often should you do yoga to lose weight?
Practice yoga as often as possible in order to lose weight. You can do a more active, intense practice at least three to five times per week for at least one hour.
On the other days, balance out your practice with a more relaxing, gentle class. Hatha, yin, and restorative yoga classes are great options.
If you’re a beginner, start slowly and gradually build up your practice. This allows you to build up your strength and flexibility and prevent injuries. If you don’t have time for a full class on certain days, do a self-practice for at least 20 minutes. Allow yourself one full day of rest each week.
