Post-Christmas Yoga Workshops in Zürich

The two evenings approach yoga through different themes: prana first, then a quieter mind. Booking them separately gives you room to explore the theme that draws you in.

Each evening begins with a short introduction to its theme, followed by yoga poses and breathing exercises. The practice includes mudras (yoga hand gestures) and bandhas (specific muscle engagements used in yoga), before moving into deep relaxation and meditation. Everyone is welcome, including people without previous yoga experience. Some familiarity with yoga may help you follow the practices. Recordings remain available for 48 hours afterwards.

CHF 45 for one studio workshop or CHF 80 for both. Choose the studio option on Eversports; online attendance is booked separately. An account is required, and recordings are available for 48 hours afterwards. Written cancellation or a replacement participant is possible. Samatvam’s standard cancellation charges are 20% more than three months ahead, 50% up to 11 days ahead and 100% less than 11 days ahead, unless the workshop has different terms. Missed sessions aren’t refunded. Complete the studio’s health form and tell the teacher about health restrictions or pregnancy. For acute physical or mental health concerns, check participation with your doctor first. Ask the studio about step-free access if you need it.

Give the days after Christmas a little space for movement and reflection. Urs Anandaratna Keller leads two studio workshops that bring together classical Hatha Yoga, breath practice and meditation. The first evening explores prana, the yogic idea of vital energy; the second focuses on calming the mind. Each stands on its own, so you can choose the theme that interests you or attend both.
