Yoga in Lagos
Yoga in Lagos, Portugal
Heated Flow, Power and Yin yoga in a boutique infrared studio in the centre of Lagos. English-speaking classes from breath-led flow to long, still yin holds, for locals, expats and active travellers across the western Algarve.
The four yoga classes on our schedule
- Heat Flow (60 min). Creative, breath-led sequences in a warm room. Fluid, grounding and built so you can actually settle into the practice instead of chasing the next pose.
- Heat Power (60 min). Physically demanding heated yoga that meets you where you are. Strong, simple, breath-led. The kind of class that takes you somewhere in yourself you did not expect.
- Heat Yin (60 min). Long, still holds that reach the deeper layers of the body. Meditative, unhurried and quietly profound. A real reason to slow down.
- Heat Recovery (45 min). A blend of mobility, breathwork, long yin holds and guided rest. Restorative work for active bodies and stretched minds.
Why heated yoga, and why infrared
Heated yoga makes the body more pliable, helps the breath settle and adds a quiet layer of intensity that turns even a slow class into something you feel. Infrared heat at around 30°C is gentler than traditional hot yoga at 40°C+, with lower humidity. You sweat, you get warm, you find depth, but you do not gasp or feel cooked.
For long yin holds in particular, infrared makes a real difference. The tissues warm gradually and stay warm through the long pauses, so the holds feel productive instead of uncomfortable.
Who our yoga classes are for
- Active people who need balance. Surfers, runners, cyclists and gym-goers use Heat Flow and Heat Yin to undo the tightness that comes with their main sport.
- People building a long-term routine. If you are over 50 and want a sustainable practice with real instruction, Heat Flow and Heat Yin are excellent regular choices, ideally combined with Heat Mobility.
- Busy minds. Heat Power and Heat Yin both cut through stress in different ways: one through hard work and breath, the other through stillness.
- Travellers. If you are visiting Lagos for a week or a month, our drop-in and Vacation Week pass make it easy to fit yoga into the trip.
Beginners are welcome
You do not need to be flexible. You do not need experience. Every class offers options for different levels, and our teachers cue clearly so you always know what to do. If you are unsure where to start, take Heat Flow first. From there, you will know whether you want more intensity (Heat Power) or more stillness (Heat Yin).
English-speaking studio for the international community
All classes are taught in English. Our community already includes Swedish, British, German, Dutch and Portuguese members. If English is your first or your second language, you will feel at home here.
