VieL

September is around the corner, which means our new autumn schedule is too. Some new classes, some familiar ones and plenty of reasons to come back to the space regularly.

A membership doesn’t mean you have to stop practicing elsewhere. It simply makes VieL one of the places you regularly come back to.

And because summer isn’t quite over: book a membership by September 1st and you’ll get a voucher for a scoop at Eisbazar 🍦✨🙃

Memberships start at €54/month. All options & booking via Eversports.

See you in the space. 💙

Two weeks ago, we shared why we no longer use the term “Karma Yogi“ for the people who support this space. Today, we want to introduce you to some of our Helfies 🤍.

Many of you probably already know these faces - some of them have been part of the studio for years, quietly showing up, helping, and being part of what makes this place feel like home. ✨

Fun fact: I myself was - back then - a Karma Yogi here for 2 years, long before I took over the studio. 💃🏻

Sending love,
Lena

In the midst of it all: VieL (SPACE) 🌱

On beautiful Praterstraße stands a building that doesn’t quite fit in with the rest - the Dogenhof. Built between 1896 and 1898, its facade was inspired by a Venetian palazzo on the Canal Grande, complete with the Lion of St. Mark still watching over the entrance today. 🦁

Once a hotel, later home to one of Leopoldstadt’s most notorious card-playing Cafés… this house has seen many lives.
To get to us, you cross a small inner courtyard balcony, tucked away from the street. A quiet, rare little detour most passersby never even know exists. ✨

Every day, we get to walk through this piece of Viennese history just to get to our little oasis. Feels pretty special.

Have you ever sat in the café on the ground floor - SUPERSENSE (slide 2 + 3) - home to old instruments, photography equipment and vinyls! 💘

A GUIDED MOVEMENT & SOUND JOURNEY with Matteo Rivetto

On August 22, we’re welcoming Matteo Rivetto for an evening of Conscious Dance.
No choreography. No experience needed. No expectation to perform.
Just an invitation to enjoy the music, move however you wish, and express through your body what words sometimes cannot.

If you’ve never experienced Conscious Dance before, this is a beautiful place to start. There is no „right“ way to participate: you’re welcome to dance, sit, lie down, observe or close your eyes and simply let the music carry you.

I’m looking forward to sharing this evening with Matteo and seeing where the journey takes us.

Earlier this year, I attended a workshop called “Decolonize Yoga” by Ravali Gudipalli , hosted by GoldenApeStudio / 📍Schüttelstraße 37/8 . Cultural appropriation is a topic I care deeply about. May we never lose our curiosity and willingness to deconstruct and question our biases.

Language changes - it always has, and it always will. But we can remind each other of the original meaning of words, and honor the wisdom they carry by using them mindfully.

In the workshop, Ravali shared so much of her knowledge, and I’m forever grateful our paths crossed. I hope to welcome her at VieL soon, so we can dive even deeper - and invite everyone who’s eager to learn and unlearn.

One outcome of the workshop: we retired “Karma Yogi” at VieL! Swipe to see what we call it now.
