Yoga & Meditation
Let Tresco's blend of yogic practice and island escapism calm your mind and restore positivity and relaxation...
Our island yogis offer a range of yoga practice and meditation on Tresco with private and group classes throughout the year.
When the weather is fine, classes take place in various inimitable island locations, from Appletree Bay's white sands to the Abbey Garden's subtropical splendour.
At other times, classes take place in the Flying Boat Studio - this light, bright space overlooks New Grimsby sound and Bryher beyond and is an ideal location to lose yourself as you find your flow.
As well as group classes, private tuition is also available - please get in touch with tutors to discuss your requirements.

Summer yoga and sound baths with Katalin
Katalin’s journey with yoga and sound healing began in India, where she has spent every winter for the past six years deepening her practice and reconnecting with herself. Yoga profoundly changed her life, guiding her back to her body, her breath, and her inner world.
Now, as she shares these practices through teaching yoga and leading sound baths, her intention is simple—to offer a space where others can experience what she felt in India: stillness, connection, and transformation. For Katalin, it is both a joy and a calling to hold that space for others.
Katalin offers fortnightly classes - please click below to find out more and make a booking.
