Best Ibiza Yoga Classes (My Must-Tries!)
As a yoga teacher, I've discovered that remaining a student is just as important as being a guide. Teachers need to continue practicing, and attending yoga classes is more than just a refresher; it's an opportunity to step outside my comfort zone, explore new postures or practice the ones I strategically avoid (Chair pose!), and reconnect with my own practice, which, when you teach, often gets neglected.
Ibiza is a yoga gold mine, offering diverse yoga classes that have undoubtedly made me a better teacher. Here are a few of my Ibiza favourites. I'm sure one of these yoga classes is near your Ibiza home:
My First Ibiza Yoga Love: Hatha with Dunia
My yoga teacher training in India led me to meet Latha, an incredibly inspiring Indian woman. After completing our training, Latha continued her studies with Surinder Singh at Swasti Yoga School in Rishikesh. We remained in touch, and she spoke highly of Surinder's profound teachings. I was hyper-excited to hear from her that Surinder would lead a workshop in Ibiza organized by Dunia (also a former student of Surinder's).
I don't believe in coincidences, but I suppose this is what they call serendipity! Thanks to my friend Latha, I discovered Surinder's beautiful teachings and began taking classes with Dunia.
Dunia, who is also a certified psychologist, once shared an incredibly insightful quote that I'll never forget: "Yoga is so complete that it doesn't need psychology." She was one of the first teachers to support me, generously lending me mats and patiently answering all my questions. Dunia is the kind of teacher who genuinely cares for her students, just as she does for herself.
Dunia's Hatha Yoga classes are pure and authentic. She focuses on the fundamental postures, chants classic mantras, and shares the deep wisdom of the yoga philosophy. I always leave her classes with something I can practice off the mat.
Dunia teaches outdoors at Ibiza’s Casa Morna, near San Carlos. It's a truly beautiful location, and I miss going there! Unfortunately, my class schedule doesn't allow me to go as often as I'd like, but I hope to return soon. I'm incredibly grateful for supportive yoga teachers like Dunia and how she shows up for her students and other teachers. She truly represents the yogic lifestyle both on and off the mat and shares that spirit with her students.

Aditi Yoga: My Go-To Studio for Hatha Yoga in Ibiza
If you've been driving around Ibiza, chances are you've spotted Bea's studio. Conveniently located on the main road between San An and San José, it's easy to spot. I've been attending Hatha Yoga classes there, and it's become my personal sanctuary. (As a bonus, it's just a 2-minute drive from my home, so I can pop in whenever I need some peace of mind.)
What I adore about Bea, the owner and instructor of Aditi Functional Yoga, is her commitment to excellence. She's constantly learning and growing to provide her students with the best possible experience. In her classes, she's always incorporating those newly learned techniques and insights she's gained from workshops. Bea treats everyone like family. She once shared with me that the people who come to her studio aren't just clients; they're her students, and she genuinely cares about their well-being. Now, that's what I call a true teacher!
Her classes are challenging, but she always ensures everyone feels supported. I've been pushing myself to try poses I typically avoid (Again: chair pose!), and she consistently encourages me to do my best. I truly appreciate her guidance. Sometimes, I feel unchallenged in other yoga classes, but Bea motivates everyone to explore their abilities, which is incredibly refreshing.
The studio offers diverse classes, from Hatha Yoga to other fitness options. Some classes are so popular that you might need to book early to secure your spot. If you're seeking a fantastic Ibiza yoga studio, I wholeheartedly recommend Aditi Yoga. It's a welcoming space with a beautiful atmosphere. Bea is an exceptional teacher, and so is her dedicated team of instructors.

Ibiza’s Most Beautiful Yoga Temple: Can Tao in San Juan
If you haven’t been to Can Tao, I’m truly sorry and urge you to make your way there as soon as possible! I know, I know, it’s in San Juan and quite far for many, including me, which I hate because I’d go there all the time. But if you have the chance, you need to visit. Can Tao is by far the most beautiful yoga temple I’ve seen in Ibiza. This is exactly what I imagine when I think of a yoga spot to feel connected, grounded, and relaxed. It is surrounded by beautiful nature, a stunning sea view, and nothing but cicadas serenading the temple from the pine forests.
On top of that, I had a wonderful experience visiting the yin and sound class with their teacher, Jessi. She’s also German, and I connected with her because she kindly lent me some yoga mats for free when I asked around without even knowing me. Another of those truly supportive teachers I love to exchange insights with and who didn’t hate me because I totally destroyed those mats during an outdoor class (this still haunts me).
Can Tao is also probably one of the oldest studios in Ibiza. It was founded in the 70s by a German woman and has always been a place for yoga practices and more. After her death, her daughters took over, and I wish for the studio to become more popular. It’s as authentic as its story, so please drive there once and join a class. Combine it with a visit to the beach, lunch in the beautiful village of San Juan, or a hike in the winter months. Let’s support unique places like this together and spread the word.

A Deep Dive into Yin Yoga with Marrejan
How much I miss this class! Living in Ibiza’s San Augustín, my class schedule unfortunately doesn't allow me to attend this yoga class very often. It's a real shame because it encourages me to connect deeply with my body and deepen my practice.
Marrejan offers yin yoga classes on Thursdays at 6 PM and yoga alignment on Tuesdays at 10 AM at a well-equipped studio in a beautiful Ibiza rural area near Santa Eulalia. She utilizes many props to support your postures and ensures you get the maximum benefit from each asana. A deep stretch where you learn to communicate with your body, observe your tensions, manage your stress, and ultimately surrender. Finding comfort in the discomfort. I also adore the tranquility I find in these classes and the peace of mind as we hold each posture for several minutes. Effortless yet rewarding.
Marrejan genuinely cares for her students, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and receives the best possible support with props and clear, easy-to-follow instructions. She moves around the class, adjusting everyone with care and love, and always intuitively knows what you need in each posture. She makes everyone feel welcome, and she seems to speak every language, offering assistance if you need more confidence with English. I've heard her speak at least four different languages with her students. Visit her and allow yourself to relax and fully surrender to this beautiful yin yoga practice in Ibiza.

IBZ Balance: A (Yoga) Class for Everyone in San Antonio
What makes IBZ Balance special is its local Ibiza community. The studio is especially valued by winter residents who live in San Antonio. It's a fantastic place to connect with other Ibiza residents and enjoy a bite to eat on the promenade right after class. Many students are familiar with each other and socialize before and after class, which is perfect for newcomers to the island.
IBZ Balance is a relatively new studio, having celebrated its first anniversary in August 2024. I teach Hatha yoga twice a week there, and it's the only studio where I teach open group classes in Ibiza, aside from private yoga. A diverse range of yoga teachers will offer a yoga practice that's just right for you. Yin, Vinyasa, Hatha, and mindful yoga classes are available.
VISIT MY CLASS • FULL CLASS SCHEDULE
Beyond the fitness and yoga classes, you can attend regular workshops led by various teachers from the island. These workshops range from meditation classes to sound healing and “yin and pin” events. Notably, IBZ Balance has an in-house acupuncturist, Suzanne Barron, who combines her Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) wisdom with yoga. They recently introduced a heels dance class led by professional dancer Ellie Jefferson. Stay updated on their schedule on Instagram to keep upcoming events on your radar. If you're a teacher or healer or offer treatments, you can rent the spacious and luminous studio space.
