Yoga Classes in Arrifana, Aljezur – Eco Yoga Surf
Join me for a dynamic Vinyasa practice that blends breathwork, moving flow sequences using Quantum Yoga™️ principles, and deep, nourishing relaxation.
This class tunes into the subtle energy of the body, fostering steadiness and ease while regulating the mind and nervous system. Modifications and challenging options are offered, making it accessible for all levels.
A playful, inclusive class where balancing, energising, and grounding asanas release tension, build resilience, and allow more energy to flow, finishing with deep relaxation.
Each class adapts to the energy of the group or the dosha we are working with: slower and softer, or stronger and energising. Learn more about how Quantum Yoga™️ balances the Ayurvedic doshas – Vata (air), Pitta (fire), and Kapha (earth) here.

Yoga offerings - style specific
Restorative Yin
Yin yoga works with connective tissue and fascia to provide a deeper release through long held (2-5 minutes) postures. The poses are simple, all floor based and accessible for all, regardless of age, ability or ailments.
It taps into a stillness that triggers deep breathing and helps relax the mind, allowing for a restorative, cooling and calming practice that is perfect to unwind with.
Yin/yang or Slow Flow
Using the combination of flow and stillness, we observe the sensations in our bodies and minds for a mindful practice. Less emphasis on movement means we can reside in poses for longer and feel into the benefits of a tradition hatha style of yoga.
We’ll also be incorporating longer holds as in yin as well as moon or sun salutations to create heat. This combination provides a well rounded and balanced practice.
Dynamic Vinyasa Flow
In this practice of breath syncronised movement we stretch, strengthen and consciously transition between postures that help energise and wake us up. We look toward core stability to be the foundation of functional movement and develop our understanding of body mechanics through standing postures and arm balances, aimed to invigorate our minds and bodies. The pace is fast and flowing, but with ample time for relaxation to finish and regulate the nervous system.
