YOGAMMA (former YogaSala Ankara)

YogaSala, which means home or abode of Yoga in Sanskrit, is meant to create a place and community where—in the chaos of Istanbul and Ankara life—people can come practice yoga, breathe and be at home in their bodies. Classes at YogaSala are multi-level and we offer eclectic yoga styles, workshops and one-on-one class. Our current classes feature Vinyasa Flow, Ashtanga, Kundalini, Sivananda, Hatha, and Yin Yoga, as well as classes for PreNatal, Pilates and Kid’s Yoga. Our teachers focus on intelligent sequencing, emphasizing the connection between breath and movement from asana to asana. This practice builds strength and flexibility in the body and steadiness in the mind. Our goal is to guide students to greater self-awareness, focus, and health through our full spectrum of yoga classes. We do this with love, compassion, a sense of adventure, and a reverence for individuality. With our varied staff of experienced, certified teachers, YogaSala offers both beginners and more advanced students the highest quality instruction available. Bringing a Timeless Practice to Modern Times The ancient and timeless tradition of Yoga has been passed from teacher to student for over 5,000 years. We continue that tradition by welcoming into our studios teachers and students from all schools of Yoga, and from all walks of life, with open arms and an offer of community. At the core of YogaŞala is a passionate, committed group of teachers and staff who understand, first hand, the joy and power of Yoga. To serve their students, they bring their collective wisdom and dedication, their years of practice and training, their openness, their caring, and their creativity into the classroom every day. And, they have fun doing it. Yoga is many things to many people. It is fitness, it is health, it is relaxation, it is transformation, it is the opening of new possibilities, it is community. That is why YogaŞala has created an eclectic and open school embracing all types of Yoga. We are continuously improving and expanding our offerings to serve the needs of our diverse student population and to accommodate the creativity of our superb teachers. At YogaŞala you will find classes in different styles, all of which feature our trademark YogaSala approach: safe, compassionate and skillful teaching.
