SHAKE THE DUST — JOURNEY THROUGH THE CHAKRAS 🐚

What happens when we use movement to explore more than just the physical body?

In this seven-part journey, we’ll move through the chakra system - using each chakra as an invitation to explore a different set of themes, sensations and qualities within ourselves.

Not as something to get right or understand perfectly, but as a framework for curiosity.

Through guided and intuitive movement, a carefully curated playlist, somatic exploration and release, we’ll shift between intensity and softness, effort and rest, structure and freedom.

The music is part of the journey too - helping us drop out of our heads, connect with the body, and let movement become something we experience rather than something we have to think about.

Some days might feel grounding.
Some might feel expansive.
Some might bring something unexpected.

There’s no particular way you need to move, and nothing you need to achieve. The practice is simply an invitation to notice, feel, explore - and perhaps move something that’s been waiting to move.

Seven classes. Seven chakras. One journey through the body.

And guiding you through it is Iitu, a Shake the Dust teacher whose approach to movement is intuitive, playful and deeply embodied. Expect thoughtfully curated playlists, a little wildness, and plenty of space to explore.

Come as you are.
Shake the dust off.

Yoga for Beginners with Rutvi
Sundays at 15:00

Our classes have always been open to beginners, but we know that stepping into your very first yoga class can feel intimidating. That’s why we’ve created Yoga for Beginners. To make taking that first step a little easier.

In this class, we’ll move at an accessible pace, explore foundational postures and breathing techniques, and help you build confidence on the mat in a welcoming, supportive environment.

And if you’ve been practicing for a while, you’re welcome to join too. Sometimes coming back to the basics is exactly what our practice needs.

We hope this class helps lower the threshold to trying yoga and reminds you that you don’t need to be flexible, experienced, or “good at yoga” to begin.

Everyone starts somewhere.

We’d love to welcome you to the mat. 🤍

Busy in the best way: moving, breathing, connecting.

Consider this your sign to take some time for yourself. No rush. We'll be here.

And if you’ve been thinking about joining us, July is a great time to start — new clients can try three classes for €35 instead of €45.

See you on the mat 🤍

It starts with an intention.

Then you take action. Just one class.
That action becomes a behavior. You make a few more bookings.
A behavior becomes a habit.
A habit becomes second nature.
And one day, it’s simply who you are.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to begin, this is it. 🤍

For the rest of July, new clients can enjoy our Intro Offer for €35 (normally €45) and experience 3 classes to discover the benefits of yoga and Pilates.

Come as you are.
Your practice starts with a single step.

You asked, and it’s finally here: Mini + Mama 🤍

A gentle 4-week postnatal yoga course created to help you reconnect with your body after birth, rebuild strength from within, and find small moments of calm in the beautiful chaos of early motherhood.

Over four weekly classes, we’ll move mindfully, strengthen the deep core and pelvic floor, and create space to breathe, rest, and simply be. This course was created to support your recovery—not to rush it.

Your baby will stay by your side. Feed them, cuddle them, or pause whenever you need to. The classes are designed for real life with a little one.

This course is especially suited for mothers with babies around 3–10 months old, when your body is still healing and you’re settling into a new rhythm of life.

Come as you are. We’ll take it one breath, one movement, and one week at a time. 🤍

Deep Rest: Yoga Nidra & Hypnosis

Join us for a deeply restorative afternoon designed to help you slow down, release tension, and reconnect with yourself.

This unique experience combines the healing practices of Yoga Nidra, beginner-friendly hypnosis, and a soothing sound bath. Yoga Nidra is a guided meditation technique that has been practiced for centuries to promote deep relaxation, reduce stress, and support restful sleep.

During this session, you’ll be gently guided through a therapeutic hypnosis and Yoga Nidra journey, inviting you to let go of what no longer serves you and create space for greater clarity, peace, and lightness.

No previous experience with Yoga Nidra or hypnosis is needed—simply come as you are, get comfortable, and allow yourself to rest.

Leave feeling grounded, refreshed, and deeply restored.

All are welcome. We look forward to sharing this experience with you.

Guided by Alaura

Yoga is so much more than movement.

The postures we practice are just one part of a much bigger philosophy. The Yamas are the first limb of yoga—five ethical principles that guide how we relate to ourselves and others.

Which one resonates with you the most? 🤍
