The Yoga Shala Manila

The Yoga Shala Manila is on the second floor of Matana Place, at the corner of Matino and Malumanay streets in Sikatuna Village, Quezon City. It presents itself as a neighbourhood space where several experienced teachers run their own classes and programmes.

Beginner-friendly options are a strong point: Gentle Flow, Basic Vinyasa, and Restorative Yoga finished with Himalayan singing bowls. More dynamic Hatha Vinyasa, Intermediate Vinyasa and Core Flow classes sit higher up the timetable, and there are special Saturday sessions such as Basic Vinyasa with live handpan, as well as workshops.

All classes must be booked online through Bookwhen at least two hours in advance, and late cancellations count against your package. Single classes are paid by GCash, bank transfer or PayPal. The Mysore programme that used to run here has moved to Ashtanga Yoga Central in Mandaluyong.
