Yoga is a beautiful activity, that has been growing for decades all over the world and that has recently helped a lot of people to get through the difficult times we’ve been living because of the pandemic. It helps our body in many ways, adding flexibility and strength, while calming our mind and helping to focus on what is really important for us.
Yoga practice can also be focused on specific parts of our body, according to what the practitioners need and look for. The kind of yoga you will experience is tailor-made for cyclists, targeting those areas that have been stressed during a bike ride.

The style and intensity of Yoga varies according to the group age, physical conditions and goal, so that everyone can fully enjoy the experience.
All you need is enthusiasm and an open mind, the teacher will provide you with the mat if you don’t carry one. Comfy and light clothes are suggested.
