The Studio. Yoga, Pilates & more

SEPTEMBER at THE STUDIO

September is a good time of the year to ask yourself simple, yet big questions:

Am I where I want to be? Where do I want to go?
"Where" not necessarily meaning a geographical place, more a psychological, philosophical one.

What can I change in my routine, in order to get there?

Do I want to be stronger? More flexible?
Have less pain? A better posture? More mobility? Less stress? More energy?

We *are not* one more self-optimization well-being business

We are a group of colleagues sharing a space, where each one defines his/her own healthy goals.

It's more about life quality, yes, happiness. Happiness being whatever one decides, but surely, universally also a deep serenity from within, that makes our hearts smile.

These things rarely come from one class... 😏
They come from practice — regularly, over time, despite every obstacle.

*Yoga and Pilates*

can change the way you move, the way you hold your body and, little by little, the way you meet everyday life.

You become stronger without losing softness, more mobile without forcing, and more aware of what your body needs.

So choose a practice. Set a goal. Show up.

Not perfectly. **Consistently.**

Our new schedule starts in **September** and runs through July 2027, with few occasional adjustments.

Come and practise with us. 🌈

*All levels welcome.
Absolute beginners: please contact the teacher before joining.*

Summer is such a fleeting time...

Yoga, Fitness, Food, Teachers' Retreat, Magic Secret Garden...

August was a no break break, promising an adventurous new school year 2026/2027.

Focus. Trust. Do your best. And create space between practices.

Bring back consciousness, so that breath becomes pranayama, purposeful channeling of energy.

There is so much truth in Nature.
Bathe in Nature with me.

YOGA para MULHERES
em português

Terças e Quintas · 18h30–19h30

Uma prática dedicada ao corpo feminino e ao ser mulher.

Nesta aula trabalhamos o fortalecimento do core — o centro do corpo — um sistema muscular profundo intimamente ligado à respiração, à postura, às funções do pavimento pélvico e ao equilíbrio dos sistemas digestivo, reprodutivo e hormonal.

Através da prática de yoga (asana, pranayama, meditação), fortalecemos o abdómen, pavimento pélvico, as pernas e os glúteos, desenvolvendo estabilidade, força e confiança no corpo e no nosso íntimo.

Soltamos tensões da zona escapular, rosto, libertamos a fáscia, permanecendo em posturas inspiradas no Yin Yoga.

Mas esta aula é mais do que exercício físico.

É um espaço onde podemos estar entre mulheres e partilhar na nossa língua materna, num ambiente acolhedor e seguro.

Um espaço que acolhe mulheres (não só mães!), e onde há lugar para explorar quem somos para além dos papéis que desempenhamos diariamente.

Ao mesmo tempo, a prática convida-nos a desafiar limites. A sair, pouco a pouco, daquilo que nos é confortável.

Apesar das cantigas que nos contam desde o início do tempo, a verdade é que o dia-a-dia exige de nós força, física e mental, foco, níveis olímpicos de organização e logística.

Aqui, somos chamadas à observação, à receptividade e ao silêncio, aqui exploramos a presença e a capacidade de ocupar o nosso espaço com consciência.

Chegar, descalçar, mover, respirar, alongar, fortalecer, observar e, pouco a pouco, vão caindo as preocupações e a azáfama de pensamentos, até sermos capazes de sentir o corpo, a respiração e experimentar expandir a consciência.

RESTORATIVE YOGA

Thursdays
17:15–18:15

Restorative Yoga is the practice of conscious rest.

Using props such as cushions, blankets, blocks and straps, the body is fully supported in gentle postures held for longer periods, usually between 5 and 15 minutes.

The intention is not to stretch further or work harder, but to allow the nervous system to slow down and the body to recover.

Developed by Judith Lasater and inspired by the therapeutic applications of Iyengar Yoga, her teacher, Restorative Yoga has become a valuable practice for those seeking balance in an increasingly unsettling world.

Physically, it helps reduce tension, improve sleep, support recovery and create space where the body has been holding stress.

Mentally and emotionally, it offers an opportunity to pause, breathe and settle. To step out of constant doing and reconnect with a quieter, steadier place within.

This class is suitable for all levels and especially supportive during periods of stress, fatigue, recovery or transition.

A space to rest, listen and to simply be.

HATHA YOGA

Mondays
10:30–12:00

Strength and softness.
Effort and surrender.

Uttanasana (Standing Forward Fold)
for humblenes,
strengthens core and cleanses the digestive and energetic system. It's a pose where I can tell where I am today. Is my restlessness guiding me, or can I experience contentment with my own limitations?

Utthan Pristhasana (Lizard Pose)
for opening of the heart and hips,
improves hip mobility, spine flexibility, releases tensions that cause pain and discomfort.

Urdhva Mukha Svanasana (Upward Facing Dog)
defies me to grow,
strengthens scapular and pelvic area, lengthens the east of the body (front) and tonifies the west (back).

Natarajasana (Dancer Pose)
for a playful dance, when everything is chaos.

Eka Pada Rajakapotasana (King Pigeon)
hip and spine flexibility, shoulder movement. Surrender.

We gradually build a body that is stronger, more mobile, and more resilient.

On a physical level, these postures help improve posture, balance, flexibility, joint health and overall strength.
Many students find that regular practice reduces chronic tension and supports a life with less pain and more ease.

On a deeper level, yoga invites us to observe ourselves. To cultivate patience, steadiness and presence. To soften unnecessary resistance and become less attached to habits that no longer serve us.

Like the owl, we learn to see more clearly.
Like the lizard, we learn to adapt, grow and trust the process.

This is a traditional Hatha Yoga practice for those who wish to explore yoga beyond exercise.

All levels are welcome.

For absolute beginners, a short introductory conversation is required before joining.
