The best yoga studios in Yerevan

An increasingly growing number of people are now practicing yoga. It happened many times to me that my friends coming from abroad asked where they can attend yoga classes in Armenia. Taking this into consideration, I have decided to talk about the best yoga studios in Yerevan. This might be useful especially for those who are planning to stay here for a long time. In general, the number of yoga centers in Yerevan is big, as it became very popular among the locals. They represent yoga culture coming from different corners of the world. So, pack your mat and decide which one suits you and your interests.

Luys Yoga Studio

Luys Yoga Studio (luys means light) was established many years ago by Svetlana, who not only does her job great but also creates a positive atmosphere, which is very important for yoga.  It is one of the leading yoga centers in Yerevan because of its well-prepared and organized trainers. At the center, you are offered Vinyasa yoga, Hatha yoga, Areal flow yoga, Restorative yoga, Prenatal yoga, Integrative yoga and so on. The trainers are certified by the International Yoga Alliance. It located right by the Vernissage and is easily accessible from all the corners of the city. The center sometimes hosts the professionals whose activities are related to metal and physical well-being for seminars, the announcements of which are always posted on their official FB page.

Shoonch Yoga Studio

I, myself, have never been to Shoonch yoga studio, but many people have good feedback about this place. Here, they offer yoga classes including Iyengar, Ashtanga, Yoga Nidra, Hatha yoga, Sivananda and Prenatal. The services also include pilates classes for mental and physical well-being.  At the SPA, you are offered Relaxation, Thai Yoga, Hot stone, Honey, Prenatal and “Shiatsu” massages. Time to time, the center also hosts some events and workshops, and you can learn more about the upcoming events by following their official website. 

Yoga Ashram

Yoga Ashram was established in Armenia within the project of Armenian Association of Yoga and Ayurveda. The center offers Hatha yoga classes in a very nice and cozy space that has an Indian style. Besides that, the instructors are internationally certified as experienced in Satyananda yoga, Raja yoga, Vinyasa yoga, restorative yoga, integrative yoga, etc. It is another good spot where you can reach harmony, inner peace, happiness and last but not the least- physical well-being.

Of course, there are many yoga studios in the town and should you be interested in any specific field, you can for sure find it. However, the list of studios I have mentioned above are among the best yoga studios in Yerevan, that collect the best yoga traditions in one place, and one can have a variety of yoga selection by visiting just one place.
