The 12 most cool places in the world to do yoga. Part II.
Sri Lanka
Thanks to its geographical and cultural proximity with India, Sri Lanka also has a long tradition in yoga practice.
However, most studies and yoga withdrawals of the island did not appear until recently due to the recent opening of this idyllic island to tourism after the end of its civil war in 2009.
They can choose them between a lot of hostels that offer workshops, retreats and free access classes, such as Hangover Hostels Mirissa, Mister Hostel Mirissa or Boho Hostel.
In addition, most of them are located on the southern coast, so you can also surf after class and mold some magazine abdominals!
Ah! And don't forget to try an ayurveda treatment to relax body and mind. You will reach full harmony and will be the perfect complement to your yoga sessions. The total relaxation is assured!
Mallorca, Spain.
Since the fashion of practicing yoga has become global, there are currently already great places in Europe where to practice yoga or even complete your training to become a yoga teacher.
One of them is Mallorca, where numerous retreats have flourished in recent years. Its quiet atmosphere, the blue sea of the Mediterranean and its impressive landscape plagued by olive groves, mountains and others, make Mallorca the perfect setting to enjoy yoga and an unforgettable stay.
The cool and different touch is a special yoga modality that has been practiced for some time in Mallorca, specifically in Sóller: the paddle surf yoga.
But if you think it can be too complicated, do not worry because in the Nirodha Yoga study they also offer great courses (and on the mainland!) In which you can even go to a free test class.
And in case you already dominate your asanas and want to spread your knowledge, in the Vinyasa Flow and Earth Yoga schools you can complete your training as a yoga teacher.
Tulum, Mexico
Tulum is another tropical paradise whose popularity has risen like foam in recent years thanks to its impressive beaches and its quiet environment.
The city is located on the east coast of the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico and has always been considered a magical place to which hippies and travelers have gone in search of peace.
Unlike other coastal peoples of the Mexican Caribbean, in Tulum they give much importance to the environment and sustainability.
Tulum's relaxed atmosphere makes it the perfect place to immerse yourself in the yoga world.
One of the best hostels where to sleep in Tulum if you like yoga is The Beehive Experience, which offers Ashtanga, Hatha and other yoga sessions inside the hostel itself.
There are also yoga schools as Studio will heal, located right next to the sea so you can feel salt water in your hair and the sand on your skin. And if you are already a veteran and you want to share your wisdom, the Yoga School offers training for teachers.
And an extra fact! Tulum not only has wonderful beaches, but also has a lot of Mayan ruins in which you will discover the history and culture of this region more thoroughly. Don't you think Tulum is one of the best places to make yoga in the world?
