Settling into a new city is easier when you have a space that feels familiar.

A yoga that takes care of your body

Yoga was born in India as a path to care for body and mind. Here we practise it with a therapeutic approach, integrated with physiotherapy: attention to breath, mobility and relaxation, with the precision of the Iyengar method and the use of props, so everyone can progress at their own pace and safely.

Meet your teacher

Alou Santos

With more than a decade dedicated to teaching yoga across Asia, Alou guides her students with a careful, warm and deeply human approach.

She is trained in various styles of yoga (Vinyasa, Hatha, pre & postnatal, children’s and seniors’ yoga) and keeps up ongoing training in the Iyengar method. Her approach blends technique, mindful movement and holistic wellbeing to help you live with more strength, balance and vitality.

Alou is an independent yoga teacher and offers her classes in the Mitra Salud space.

Classes are taught in English

Every class is taught in English, in a warm and easy-to-follow atmosphere. Whether you’re a long-term resident or new in town, you can practise comfortably in your own language and feel right at home from day one.

“I started yoga with Alou to ease the back pain from a lumbar disc herniation. Yoga helped me understand my body far better, feel fewer aches day to day, and discover the value of breath and meditation.”

— One of Alou’s students

Yoga is a complementary wellbeing practice and does not replace the diagnosis or treatment of a healthcare professional.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need previous yoga experience?

No. Classes are designed for all levels. Thanks to the Iyengar method and the use of props, each posture adapts to your body and your starting point.

Do the classes work for English speakers?

Absolutely — that’s the whole idea. Every class is taught in English, so you’ll understand every instruction and can fully focus on your practice. Perfect for expats and internationals in Barcelona.

Can I join if I have an injury or condition?

Therapeutic yoga is very respectful of each person’s limits. Even so, if you have an injury or medical condition, let Alou know before starting so the practice can be adapted and, if needed, coordinated with your physiotherapist. That’s why we ask for the consent form before the session.

How many places are there?

Each session is limited to 8 people, so every student gets proper attention. Places are first come, first served, so it’s best to write early.
