My Gastein experience
Whether on a lush meadow, next to a tranquil mountain lake or in the sunlit Kurpark: Yoga in Gastein is a deeply enriching experience that stays with you long after your practice ends.
From open studio hours to outdoor sessions at scenic power places, Gastein offers a rich variety of yoga experiences year-round. Regular open-air classes at the Kurpark and group sessions in the Naturladen area invite you to combine movement with time in nature. Workshops, private lessons and the yunion Yoga Festival add diversity to your practice.
Twice a year, the Gastein valley also becomes an international meeting place for yoga enthusiasts. Yoga Spring in May and Yoga Autumn in October draw teachers and participants from around the world. Countless sessions, inspiring lectures and engaging workshops offer the perfect opportunity to refine your skills and embrace the beauty of the Alps.
For ten days in May, the Gastein Valley will be Europe's most beautiful yoga hotspot!
A great program with selected yoga teachers is offered in the yoga hotels and at several Gastein power spots. During the Gastein Yoga Days, up to 30 yoga sessions per day take place throughout the valley and you can tailor your yoga vacation to suit your individual taste.
In principle, all yoga classes are designed in such a way that the previous experience of the participants can be taken into account individually, i.e. they are suitable for all levels.
Special courses for beginners, i.e. people with little yoga experience, are marked as such. The same applies to the units for advanced students. These require a continuous, stable and sometimes vigorous yoga practice.
Some yoga classes are also offered in English and are marked as such in the timetable.
Our more extensive and intensive units are also listed separately in the timetable.
One-way tickets, blocks of 5 or 10 can be booked for the yoga sessions. The blocks of 5 or 10 are valid for the regular 60 & 90 minute sessions. (Blocks of 5 & 10 are per person and cannot be transferred to future events)

Functional Movement Class
Are you the kind of yogi who can twist into jaw-dropping shapes with ease? Or maybe you make some creative use of straps or a friendly push (or pull) from an assistant or two-to strike those picture-perfect poses? If you're ready to take things to the next level by focusing on how your body moves, not just where it ends up, this workshop is for you.

Centred States, A complete practice for curious yogis
Yoga can be seen ultimately as practice of balance in ever sense and in this extended practice, we'll be exploring multiple pathways that might help you land a more centred state. Physically we'll be opening the tight areas, stabilizing the weak areas though a combination of controlled vinyasa, mobility theory and deep static stretching Expect Adam's clear anatomical cues and a good dose of "why" behind everything we're doing.

Vinyasa Masterclass
We may have gone to hundreds of vinyasa classes, but in these 90-minute affairs, slotted precariously into high-energy weeks, we move from asana to asana without having time to truly explore the pose, understand the pose, take it deeper or acknowledge the sensations of the body.

The Despacho ceremony is an integral part of Andean shamanism. The ritual name reflects the act of "sending" an offering or gift out of gratitude or with a request.
We enter into a deep connection with the mountain spirits to gain clear communication and remember: the mountain is so much more than rock. It is a witness to humanity, carrying wisdom, strength and consciousness. When we as humans connect with these qualities of the Apus and step humbly before the mountain in ceremony, we gain insight into the ancient knowledge of the Apus.
