Women in a yoga pose

It’s the wellness routine many celebrities and supermodels swear by. From Gisele Bundchen’s immaculate body to Kate Hudson’s mindful meditation, the benefits of yoga are immeasurable. For starters, this ancient practice of wellness boosts the immune system, reduces stress, increases flexibility and the list goes on. The only way to learn what yoga brings to your well-being is to start practicing it! If you’re visiting or staying in Macau for a bit, check out our list of the best yoga places in Macau.

Located in a colonial building on Senado Square, Yoga Loft offers tranquil energy in contrast to its hectic touristy surroundings. The historic location comes with a rare overview of one of Macau’s most iconic landmarks. 

But first and foremost, Yoga Loft is a studio where Macau yogis will find balanced practice by qualified teachers. Its founder Rita Gonçalves learned various yoga and yoga-related practices in places around the world. Then, she brought all her rich knowledge and expertise to share it with students in Macau. Rita’s favorite type is Ashtanga Vinyasa, but she also teaches gentle Hatha, Sivananda, and postural yoga, a necessary practice for those who spend most of their time at the computer desk. 

The classes are never overcrowded to make sure everyone gets the teacher’s attention and guidance. Rita’s teaching style is straightforward but caring. She strives to help out every student to get the asanas right and to reap the most from practice.  

Occasionally, Yoga Loft hosts wellness workshops and classes such as movement awareness or self-empowerment courses. Apart from yoga, meditation, and pilates, you can choose from several massages and therapies too. For more updates on lessons and courses, check out their Facebook page.
