Yoga Faro Ashrama – Yoga Center
Yoga Faro Áshrama – Yoga Center, opened in February 2025. This space is entirely dedicated to the practice of Yoga Sámkhya – the Traditional Total Yoga of India. Our Áshrama is part of the Portuguese Yoga Confederation – a global leader in Yoga specialization. Our mission is to awaken in each practitioner an awareness of their true greatness, their abilities, and their potential, guiding them on a path to reconnecting with their best self and strengthening the harmonious connection with Mother Nature, of which we are a part.
Yoga Faro Áshrama is directed by Teresa Sequeira (Shivaní), a Yoga Instructor and student of the Portuguese Yoga Confederation's Special Advanced Yoga Course. She has over 6,500 hours of training over six years of intensive study and practice. She is a disciple of HH Sat Guru Jí Amrita Súryánanda Mahá Rája, Grand International Master of Yoga.
Our Activities
1. Yoga for Adults
Regular Sámkhya Yoga classes, structured to promote strength, flexibility and balanceEach session is carefully designed to align body and mind, encouraging mindfulness and overall well-being.
2. Yoga for Children
The practice of Yoga allows children to maintain the numerous qualities inherent to them, such as joy, creativity, flexibility, and also provides the development of many other qualities that they still need to acquire, such as: learning to breathe, to relax, strengthening muscles and joints, increasing periods of concentration, etc.
The practice of Yoga teaches children strategies and tools to help them maintain a state of balance and well-being when facing the challenges of their growth.
3. Yoga on the Beach
We harness the revitalizing energy of the ocean with outdoor classes in coastal locations near Faro. Contact with the sand, sea, and sun intensifies feeling of freedom, well-being and connection with nature—a practice that revitalizes body and soul.
4. Yoga for Pregnant Women
Pregnancy is a healthy and natural process and should therefore be experienced with serenity. Yoga promotes a healthy pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period, preserving the physical well-being of the expectant mother without interfering with the balanced and healthy development of the baby.
More than just body care, this practice reminds us of the love and power we have within us—the strength to create and nurture life in the likeness of Mother Nature. A sacred moment of deep connection between mother and baby, which promotes physical, emotional, and mental well-being during pregnancy.
