Free trial lessons for beginners:

14–24 September
September is the perfect time to start (or restart) your yoga practice. To support you in this new beginning, from 14 to 24 September we’re offering free trial lessons for those trying yoga for the first time or wishing to consolidate their foundations at a gentle, mindful pace.
BEGINNERS’ CLASSES – FREE TRIAL

Monday 17:30 – 18:30 Gentle Yoga and Prenatal Yoga
A gentle and accessible practice, ideal for those seeking a gentle approach to yoga. The sequences are adapted to ensure safety and comfort, with particular attention to the wellbeing of the back and pelvic floor. Perfect for pregnant women (subject to medical clearance), those suffering from stiffness, or anyone looking for a less intense practice.

Thursday 11.00 – 12.00 Sivananda Yoga for beginners
A gentle, structured programme of classical yoga. The class follows the Sivananda method, which combines breathing exercises (Pranayama), the Sun Salutation, held asanas and deep relaxation. Each session is designed to develop strength, flexibility and mindfulness in a gradual way that respects the body. On a philosophical level, it is inspired by Advaita Vedānta, the tradition of non-duality rooted in the Vedas.

FREE TRIAL on Thursday 17 and 24 September.

Thursday 19:30 – 20:30 Anusara Hatha Yoga for beginners
Anusara is a dynamic and creative method with no fixed sequences. Each class is built around a specific theme and gradually prepares the body to reach a final peak pose. Based on principles of universal alignment, it combines anatomical precision with fluidity of movement. Philosophically, it is inspired by non-dual Tantric Shaivism, integrating stability, grounding and openness of the heart.

FREE TRIAL on Thursday 17 and 24 September.MEDITATION – FREE TRIAL

Thursday 12:10 – Pranayama and Meditation
A practice focused on the breath and inner stillness, to learn how to cultivate mindfulness and mental stability. Pranayama is the art of regulating and directing Prāṇa, the vital energy that circulates through the body via the breath. Through specific techniques of inhalation, exhalation and breath retention, Pranayama purifies the energy channels, calms the nervous system and prepares the mind for meditation. It is not simply a matter of ‘breathing better’, but of using the breath as a tool to directly influence one’s physical, emotional and mental state. Ānāpāna meditation (or Ānāpānasati, ‘mindfulness of inhalation and exhalation’) is the practice of observing the breath as it is, without altering it, focusing attention on the natural sensations of inhalation and exhalation. This practice develops concentration, presence and awareness of the transient nature of every experience.

FREE TRIAL on Thursday 17 and 24 September.

Gentle yoga and a sound bath at sunset in the garden of Palazzo Castri 1984 Hotel & SPA—Piazza Indipendenza, 7

Followed by a healthy, detox-focused apericena

We are delighted to have found a new outdoor space where we can continue to offer our yoga and sound bath experiences throughout the summer.

The beautiful, well-kept, and welcoming garden of Palazzo Castri, in the heart of Florence, offers the ideal atmosphere to slow down, breathe, and treat yourself to a moment of true well-being on summer evenings.

At sunset, amidst the garden’s silence and the soft evening light, we will enjoy an experience dedicated to deep relaxation and inner listening.

Gentle yoga, suitable even for beginners, features slow, mindful movements guided by the breath to gradually release physical and mental tension and rediscover softness, presence, and balance.
In this state of openness and receptivity, sound becomes a source of support and guidance: the vibrations of planetary gongs, singing bowls, and crystal bowls accompany the relaxation and foster a sense of deep calm and harmony.

Gentle movement, breath, sound, and subtle vibrations thus come together in an immersive practice that helps regenerate you on every level.

Following the session, a healthy, detox-focused aperitif and light dinner will be served: the ideal conclusion to the experience, designed to rebalance not only the subtle body through practice and sound, but also the physical body through healthy, nourishing, and mindful eating.

For reservations, please contact Palazzo Castri directly by emailing: welcome@palazzocastri.com

Limited spots available.

Reservations must be made no later than 3 days before the event.

Fee: €60

Yoga dolce e bagno di suoni al tramonto presso il giardino di Palazzo Castri 1984 Hotel & SPA- Piazza Indipendenza, 7

A seguire Apericena salutare e detox

Siamo felici di aver trovato un nuovo spazio all’aperto dove continuare a proporre, anche durante l’estate, le nostre esperienze di yoga e bagno di suoni.

Il meraviglioso giardino di Palazzo Castri, curato e accogliente, nel cuore di Firenze, offre l’atmosfera ideale per rallentare, respirare e concedersi un momento di autentico benessere nelle serate estive.

Al tramonto, tra il silenzio del giardino e la luce morbida della sera, vivremo un’esperienza dedicata al rilassamento profondo e all’ascolto interiore.

La pratica di yoga dolce, adatta anche a chi non ha esperienza, propone movimenti lenti e consapevoli, accompagnati dal respiro, per sciogliere gradualmente tensioni fisiche e mentali e ritrovare morbidezza, presenza ed equilibrio.

In questo stato di apertura e ricettività, il suono diventa sostegno e guida: le vibrazioni di gong planetari, campane armoniche e campane di cristallo accompagnano il rilassamento e favoriscono una sensazione di quiete e armonia profonda.

Il movimento dolce, il respiro, il suono e le vibrazioni sottili si incontrano così in una pratica immersiva che aiuta a rigenerarsi a tutti i livelli.

A seguire sarà proposta un’apericena salutare e detox: il completamento ideale dell’esperienza, pensato per riequilibrare non solo il corpo sottile attraverso la pratica e il suono, ma anche il corpo fisico attraverso un’alimentazione sana, nutriente e consapevole.

Per prenotazioni è possibile contattare direttamente palazzo castri scrivendo una email a: welcome@palazzocastri.com

Posti limitati.

Le prenotazioni dovranno essere effettuate massimo entro 3 giorni prima dell’evento.
