Yoga Weeks: The first urban Yoga retreat center in the heart of Barcelona

July 27, 2015

In the center of the hippest European city, we have created a unique space to practice daily Yoga, retreat and yet enjoy the city, its culture, gastronomy and beaches. When needing an escape, a holiday from work, a city break with a healthy twist and a Yoga fix this is the place. Barcelona has become one of the most attractive cities in Europe with a very easy access from most European cities. Very affordable several daily flights from London, Berlin, Amsterdam, Paris and so much more are landing here every day. Yoga Weeks Barcelona is located in a nice and quiet street, yet minutes' walk away from the central gothic neighbourhood, oldest food market (La Boqueria) and a 10 minute walk away to the beach of Barcelona. This cataloged, modernistic building (from Gaudi's movement) was built in 1890. The building and the space have preserved all its magical features and a smart distribution of the rooms allowing all of them to have access to outdoor spaces, such as internal patios or balconies. Here we will be offering two hours daily morning Yoga in our indoor Yoga space, and on our roof top terrace, overlooking the city. We have carefully chosen a team of qualified established international teachers. Classes will be taught in English, and styles will vary from Dynamic Vinyasa, Vinyasa and Ashtanga. Yet each teacher will be bringing their own touch, experience, and influences. Daily classes will be followed by a vegetarian brunch, and then free time! Options to either explore the city, enjoy the beach or just relax and be. We will be offering extra optional activities such as paddle boarding, cycling, massages, alternative therapies and much more within the city and surroundings. In the midst of this lively city we have created a beautiful and peaceful sanctuary, with all modern comfort. Allowing our guests to retreat in and out, practice Yoga while enjoying the world on our doorstep.

This project was born from a passion for Yoga and a balanced healthy lifestyle, with the desire to bring likeminded people together to share Yoga, explore, relax and have fun.
