We believe that well-being is achieved through a balanced approach that is tailored to each individual, and YOGAFORLIFE supports women with three pillars:
- Stabilize : Balance your mind and body through Hatha yoga, meditation, and breathing techniques.

- Silence : Yin yoga, restorative yoga, and sound therapy release stress from the mind and body and regulate the autonomic nervous system.

It is a space that stimulates the five senses, where women can take care of themselves while facing themselves, and create an environment where they can refresh their mind and body.
TRADITIONAL
YOGA Basics
■
This class is for those who want to understand yoga from the basics and continue their practice while learning. Every two weeks, a different theme is chosen and carefully taught, covering the fundamentals of yoga: asanas (poses), breathing techniques, and meditation. For example, in the case of yoga asanas, students will be able to thoroughly learn and understand the asanas for each theme, allowing them to master them. This is recommended for beginners as well as experienced practitioners, as it allows for a deeper understanding of yoga. The class begins with a 10-minute warm-up, followed by a 30-minute in-depth learning and practice of the day's theme asana, breathing techniques, or meditation, and the remaining 30 minutes are dedicated to yoga instruction.
HATHA
■
This class is aimed at yoga beginners and those who want to learn the basics, focusing on each pose with proper alignment. It's a safe and effective way to increase your strength and flexibility. Beginners will also learn breathing and meditation techniques, gradually building a foundation for a healthy mind and body, promoting and maintaining overall well-being.
HATHA FLOW
■
This class focuses on your own breathing and moves at a good tempo while coordinating your breathing with your body movements. By moving your whole body in tandem with deep breathing, you will improve your muscle strength, metabolism, and immunity.
VINYASA I
■■
By linking breathing with poses, this class will promote full-body stretching, muscle strengthening, and physical fitness. It will strengthen your flexibility, muscle strength, and core, making it ideal for those who want to move their body and get more exercise.
YIN
■
This class focuses on the connective tissues and bones deep within the body by holding each pose for a long time. The low-volume and simple poses create a deeply relaxing effect.
RESTORATIVE & SOUND
■
This class uses props (blankets, bolsters, belts, blocks, etc.) to release tension in the body while taking time for each pose in a quiet environment to release tension, awaken the body's healing powers, and promote recovery of the mind and body. Tibetan singing bowls are also used in this class, and sound affects the brain waves, allowing you to experience the ultimate relaxation.
MATERNITY
■
This maternity yoga class allows expectant mothers to move their entire body comfortably, improving blood flow while maintaining muscle strength and stamina. It's effective in preventing and alleviating minor issues like swelling, stiff shoulders, and back pain, and you'll also learn breathing techniques that will be useful during childbirth. This class will help relieve stress for pregnant women both physically and mentally, supporting a healthy pregnancy.
