Back to Balance

Back to Balance

As the peak of summer heat passes once again, we find ourselves shifting into a different phase of interaction. September almost feels like a new beginning, a new year in itself, yet carries the scent of the familiar. The steady balanced routines begin again. Planning the week of work and of service, moments to move and meditate, moments to be and to do. As we reflect on how we can grow in offering you the practices of yoga of what you need, when you need it, the next evolution of our teachings and your opportunity to study begins to show.

At our yoga studio in the heart of the city, we will continue with the daily dose of practices (25 classes per week) and longer format workshops. Then, when we can we’ll head out to the country side to the literal ‘Centre of Portugal’ for weekend retreats. A small independent owner led yoga business that looks to pass on the knowledge of yoga when and how we can.

So where would you like to be? What would you like to experience? or perhaps learn more about? Here’s the news……

In light of the tragic event that occurred in Lisbon on 3rd September 2025, we send love and condolences to all the victims and their beloved friends and family of the Elevador da Glória (funicular) crash. May we continue to strive to support everyone and everything in ways we can.

Much love,

Zoe & The MoY Team.
