200hrs Yoga Teacher Training
w/ Floripa Yoga Academy
Regular Classes
Our regular yoga classes are held daily in one of our Shala at 8 AM and 6 PM, lasting 90 mins.
All classes are taught by international teachers (in English) and are suitable for all levels, ensuring that you’ll always feel welcome and continue to improve your practice, no matter where you are in your journey.
There is daily communication in our WhatsApp group regarding the classes and the teachers.
Morning Practice
Our morning practice varies from teacher to teacher, offering a rich “buffet” of styles including Vinyasa, Hatha, Tantra, and Kundalini, all with the same intention: to cultivate aliveness and presence. Whether through building up to more complex poses or guiding an inner exploration, each session is designed to enhance your strength, flexibility, and awareness. Mornings at Floripa are yang-focused composed of energetic movements, breathbreathe exploration (pranayama) and some contemplation (meditations) providing the perfect start to your day. Guided by experienced teachers, our classes include precise cues, options for all levels, and hands-on adjustments.
Evening Practice
The evening practice aims to calm the nervous system, allowing the yang energy to retreat inward and creating space for more yin energy to flow. These practices vary from Yin Yoga, Restorative Yoga and gentle mobility-focused practice, all designed to enhance flexibility and rest. With minimal emphasis on strength, these practices rely on gravity and breath to guide you into a more profound experience. The focus is on cultivating awareness, healing and rejuvenation. Each session is enriched with pranayama, meditation, and sound healing, creating a serene environment for deep relaxation.
Workshops & Special Practices
Floripa Yoga academy is particularly appreciated for the range of practices offered including weekly workshops and special practices.
Sup Yoga
As soon as the water warms up and the wind conditions are favorable, we offer morning SUP Yoga classes as an alternative to the main practice held in the Shala. After a brief introduction to the basics of balancing on SUP Yoga boards, we’ll anchor ourselves in our floating studio and begin the practice. SUP Yoga helps us identify when we become “lazy” in our asanas and highlights misalignments that may go unnoticed on the mat but are evident on the board. It’s a fun yet soothing practice—a nature-filled experience that blends the benefits of yoga with the calming energy of the ocean.
Workshops
Our Yoga House offers weekly workshops that go beyond the practice of asana. These sessions are designed to provide tools that help you delve deeper into the state of yoga. Whether you’re looking to enhance your practice, explore new dimensions of life, or simply make the most of your vacation, our workshops offer something for everyone.
You can look forward to offerings such as arm balances, inversions, backbends, pranayama, Ayurveda, full moon circles, and workshops with esoteric themes.
Masterclasses
Masterclasses take place every Friday morning at Floripa, offering a unique 120-minute practice led by two teachers. While structured like a class, it incorporates the interactive and exploratory elements of a workshop, making it both engaging and playful.
This special session provides a wonderful opportunity to explore your body in new ways, with the guidance and support of two experienced professionals.
(Available only during the months of July, August and September).
Beach Yoga
Beachside yoga at Floripa offers a truly magical experience. During the summer months, we offer practices on a shaded platform with ocean views and the refreshing scent of salt in the air. The soothing sound of the waves creates the perfect atmosphere to connect with nature, both around and within you. Many practitioners love to cool off with a dip in the sea after class, so don’t forget to bring your swimsuit with you for this morning practice at the beach.
Please note that this practice doesn’t replace the regular morning practice that happens simultaneously in the shala.
