Namaste! Where to get your Yoga on in Sydney
Yogis, if you’re looking for the best Yoga studios in Sydney, stop the search right now! We’ve listed the top five city studios for some serious sun salutations.
Sydney isn’t just an urban jungle full of cold-pressed juice bars, saltwater pools and vegan restaurants, it’s also a city where people love to work up a sweat in various asanas.
Sydneysiders, particular Eastern Suburbs peeps, are remarkable. You see them, tall, tanned, toned and blonde knocking back Gin and Tonics at The Bucket List at Bondi Beach into the early hours of the morning. You also see the same people a few hours later in their Lululemon pants with Soy Flat Whites in their hands, Yoga mats strapped to their backs ready for a morning Vinyasa.
After a visit to the local Yoga studio they’ll, without fail, be tucking into a gluten-free (or possibly sourdough) toast with smashed avocado before going for a dip in the ocean, whilst of course, Instagramming the whole experience #yogalife #beachyoga #sydneyyogi.
