​A coZy studio dedicated to the practice of yoga
at the centre of Ericeira

Ericeira Yoga Studio, created in 2009, was the first space in Ericeira totally dedicated to the teachings of Yoga. It is composed by a team of experienced and certificated teachers, has all the necessary material for the practice, and offers classes of different yoga styles, to all ages, so that each student can choose the one that best suits their needs.

 

Initially the studio was at Ribamar, between Coxos and São Lourenço beaches, a quiet and pleasant place, where she welcomed children and adults that wanted to practice and know more about Yoga.

In 2017, Joana moved the studio from Ribamar to the center of Ericeira, a space more accessible to all, in a calm area, inspired by the energy of the ocean, 5m walking distance, and colors of this beautiful village. ​​

The aim continues to be the teaching and sharing the practice of Yoga, both as an art and a life style conducive to holistic health, well-being and self-knowledge. ​
