Our new shala, above the harbour
A hand-thatched roof, open sides, and the whole bay in front of you. Every class looks out over the ocean and Weligama’s fishing boats — bring your camera.
Render of the finished shala
A yoga house, not a hotel with a class
Practice twice a day
Vinyasa to start the day, Yin as the light turns gold. Every day, 75 minutes each.
Teachers with real depth
A rotating team, including teachers who have studied in Mysore. Different styles, the same care.
Beyond the poses
Breathwork and meditation are woven into classes, with sound healing, cacao ceremonies and workshops through the season.
All levels, all provided
First class or thousandth. Mats, blocks and props are here, and you can drop in without staying.
Light through the bamboo, palms beyond
One shala, many styles
A rotating team of teachers shares the shala this season, each with their own style — so no two classes feel the same, and every class feels held.
Natasha
A proud Sri Lankan teacher, rolling out the mat for students since 2019 and excited to share the magical energy of this land. Expect asana woven with strong pranayama and gentle meditative pockets — an invitation to drop within, into your own magic.
Anna
Nearly a decade of devoted daily Ashtanga practice took Anna to Mysore, India, to study with Sharath Guruji himself. Her flows are rooted in tradition but playful with it — foundations, strength, mobility and breath, with careful hands-on adjustments that honour each student’s boundaries.
Freya
From the UK, teaching for eight years — three and a half of them here in Sri Lanka, which has become home. Her signature class pairs long-held Yin postures with intuitive hands-on massage using Ayurvedic balms and oils. Touch is always optional, with a discreet way to opt in or out at the start of every session.
Poorvika
A 200-hour certified teacher who loves creating space to slow down, reconnect, and find balance between body and mind. Move mindfully, connect with your breath — come as you are, leave the mat in peace.
Itzy
Itzy returns to the shala from mid-November — full bio coming soon.
Who’s teaching when
Two classes a day, a different pair of hands guiding each one. Swaps happen now and then — the day’s teacher is always on our Instagram.

Massage, sound & ceremony
Practice here goes beyond the poses — breathwork and meditation are woven into classes, you can book a massage at the house, and the season brings sound healing, cacao ceremonies, and workshops in the shala throughout the year.
