Planning your yoga trip to Mallorca

Where can I find the best places to practise yoga in Mallorca?

There are yoga studios in every city and large town in Mallorca; some of the most popular options can be found in Palma, a popular destination for yoga holidays in Mallorca. For something a little more luxurious than a standard yoga studio, visit Purobeach Palma, a relaxed beach club with morning sessions right in front of the sea. If you're staying in the south of the island, look for yoga studios close to your villa in Port Cala d'Or. In the north, make a beeline for Deià. This charming, traditional village in the Serra de Tramuntana mountains has attracted alternative travellers with a love of spirituality for more than fifty years. Today it has a thriving community of yoga enthusiasts, and is one of the best places to look for holiday lettings in Mallorca for a relaxed, laid-back holiday. Of course, you might want to make your own private yoga and wellness retreat in Mallorca, practising outdoors in the beautiful, all-natural Balearic surroundings. Cap de Formentor, with its picturesque lighthouse, is a good spot for yoga in the north of the island; in the south, go to Es Trenc beach. There are also tiny coves all over the island which are great for a spot of yoga in the morning.

Where should I stay for a relaxing yoga retreat in Mallorca?

Choose a private villa in Mallorca for the ultimate wellness experience. At the end of the day, you'll be able to relax in total privacy, go for a dip in your private pool, and even have your own yoga sessions in the garden. If you want to mix yoga with other activities, villas in Palma de Mallorca are a good choice. You'll be in a central location in the island's capital, so you can enjoy a range of restaurants, go shopping, and see sights like the cathedral and the Castell de Bellver, as well as doing your sun salutations. Villas in Pollença give you easy access to some great trails, both leading to the sea and to the mountains, so you can practise in nature during your yoga trip to Mallorca. There are also lots of SUP yoga sessions around Pollença, giving you the extra challenge of holding poses on a stand-up paddleboard. In the south, villas in Cala d'Or are close to some of the island's best beaches, which are also ideal for outdoor practice.

FAQs: Yoga holidays in Majorca

What types of yoga can I try in Mallorca?

Different studios across Mallorca offer a range of classes and yoga styles. Hatha yoga and vinyasa flow are offered in most studios, as they are among the most popular styles; dedicated yogis may also want to visit ashtanga studios for this demanding practice. Kundalini and iyengar yoga sessions are also available in larger studios. You can also find some more unusual, less traditional styles of yoga, such as hot yoga and family-friendly classes for kids.

Can I travel to Mallorca with my yoga mat?

To avoid disappointment, check with your airline. Your yoga mat, tightly rolled up and packed into its own carrying bag, may or may not fit in the hand luggage compartment. Some airlines will allow a yoga mat as a personal item, but others - especially budget operators - will require you to check it in. Special travel mats, which are thinner and lighter than standard mats, are a good alternative. Remember, if you are going to practise at a studio in Mallorca, mats will be available for you to use - but you should bring your own for private outdoor practice.

What other kinds of wellness and meditation sessions can I find in Mallorca?

Mallorca is a popular destination for spiritual travellers, and there are lots of other wellness options around the island, particularly in the town of Deià. Some private meditation and wellness coaches, as well as yoga teachers, will even come to your villa to hold personalised sessions for you.

Can I find yoga classes in English in Mallorca?

Yes. While some studios target local clients, offering classes in Catalan or Spanish, there are many that are aimed at international yogis. It's easy to find English-speaking yoga classes in Deià, Palma, and all of the island's major resorts.

Can I do yoga teacher training in Mallorca?

Yes. A standard full yoga teaching training course requires 200 hours of practice, so make sure you have enough time to complete your training. Not everyone who goes through YTT becomes a yoga teacher; many do it to enhance and develop their own yoga practice and learn better techniques and skills. Some studios in Mallorca offer general training, while others also have specialist courses focused on one particular style.
