Yoga classes in Barcelona that take care of your body
Yoga was born in India as a path to caring for body and mind. Here we work with a therapeutic approach, integrated with physiotherapy: attention to breathing, mobility and relaxation, with the precision of the Iyengar method and the use of props, so that each person progresses at their own pace and safely.
What you'll try in the free class
In these trial sessions you'll discover Alou's style. These are the approaches you'll work on:
Breath and movement
A gentle class to reconnect with your breath, gain mobility and release tension. Ideal if you're starting from scratch or want an accessible practice.
Restorative and recovery yoga
A practice to de-stress and recharge your energy, with sustained postures and deep relaxation. Designed to calm the nervous system and truly rest.

How to book your trial class
Choose a day and time slot. Trial classes take place on June 29 and July 1, in two slots: 17:45–18:45 and 19:00–20:00. Pick the one that suits you best.
Book on a first-come, first-served basis. Registrations are handled in the order requests are received, so the sooner you write, the better.
Let us know if you can't make it. Cancel at least 12 hours in advance so your spot can go to someone on the waiting list.
Sign the consent form. Before the session you'll need to fill in and sign a brief consent form (see below).

Fill it in and sign it
Complete your details and sign directly on the document.
Can't fill it in or sign it? Just write to Alou letting her know you'll need the form, and she'll have it ready for you.
Meet your teacher
Alou Santos
With over a decade dedicated to teaching yoga in Asia, Alou guides her students with a caring, warm and deeply human approach.
She is trained in various yoga styles (Vinyasa, Hatha, pre- and postnatal, yoga for children and seniors) and maintains ongoing training in the Iyengar method. Her approach combines 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 at the Mitra Salud space.
Classes are taught in English
Alou teaches her classes in English, in a friendly, easy-to-follow atmosphere. You don't need a high level to enjoy them: in yoga, the body understands quickly, and many cues (breathing, pose names) are universal. If you feel like practicing yoga and, along the way, brushing up on your English, it's the perfect plan.
"I started yoga classes with Alou to ease the back pain from a lumbar herniated disc. Yoga helped me understand my body much better, notice fewer aches day to day, and discover the value of breathing and meditation."
— One of Alou's students

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 pose is adapted to your body and starting point.
Do I need to know English?
A high level isn't necessary. Classes are in English, but in yoga the cues are very visual and easy to follow. It's a good chance to practice the language in a relaxed way.
Can I join if I have some discomfort or an injury?
Therapeutic yoga is very respectful of each person's limits. Even so, if you have an injury or condition, let Alou know before starting so the practice can be adapted, and consult your physiotherapist too if needed. That's why we ask for the consent form before the session.
How many spots are there?
Each session has a limited capacity of 8 people, so every student can be cared for properly. Spots are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, so it's best to write early.
