Often we practise yoga postures on our own, but have you ever considered practising together with a friend or a significant other?

Couples Yoga, or yoga practised in pairs, is a way of deepening connection with both our own being and another. This practice offers a beautiful opportunity to communicate beyond words with your partner. During the shared yoga postures, we can tune into specific energies within ourselves and our partner, cultivating harmony and balance. This "tuning in" allows us to connect more deeply, understand one another in new ways, and create an enriched sense of intimacy.

Practised in the intimate ambience of candlelight, Couples Yoga can offer profound insights and transformation, whether experienced as a romantic couple or as close friends. It is a unique practice and a nourishing way to spend quality time together!

Each session will include:

  • A short introduction & explanation
  • Heart-connection exercises
  • Warming up exercises
  • Couples Yoga postures
  • A profound relaxation

Whilst Couples Yoga is beneficial for couples, it is also suitable for two friends. You must come already with a partner. You do not need to be flexible for this practice. All that is needed is to wear comfortable clothing and bring an open heart & mind.

What participants say

I participated to an evening of candlelight couple yoga session at Tara and it was delightful. It was clear the love that was put in the organization and preparation of the evening and the space. A warm welcoming place, beautiful setting, even romantic, with candles everywhere (mostly electric, which I found a smart move and didn't take anything away from the atmosphere) 😊.

I loved the way the practice was introduced, giving a deeper frame and meaning to what usually is considered more of a playful interaction, rather than a spiritual practice.

I had the opportunity to explore a beautiful intimate space with my loved one, communicating without words, and exchanging of energies in a gentle way through intelligently designed yoga postures. I had a memorable time and so did my partner.

I would heartily recommend the candlelight couple yoga to anyone who wants to deepen a connection with someone in a way that goes beyond the usual "head space" and more into a "heart space".

Lovely Friday evening in Central London and then off to a nice romantic dinner 😊

Couples Candlelight Yoga is a truly beautiful and powerful practice that creates a subtle yet profound understanding of intimacy, love, and empathy. 🕯️❤️

It's an experience that goes beyond yoga postures, allowing you to connect on a deeper level through trust, communication, and mutual support. You begin to feel how supporting one another physically and emotionally can help you hold postures for longer than you might manage individually. But the most beautiful realisation is that, when you work together as a team, you become stronger, more balanced, and almost unstoppable.

The candlelight creates a peaceful, intimate atmosphere that makes the whole experience feel even more special. What I particularly love is that it doesn't have to be with a romantic partner; it can be just as meaningful with a friend. Either way, it encourages connection, understanding, and a wonderful sense of togetherness.

It's a beautiful reminder that love and empathy are not just feelings but also practices that we cultivate through patience, trust, and supporting each other. An enriching and heartwarming experience that I would highly recommend to anyone looking to deepen their connection with another person. ✨

I really enjoy practicing yoga working in a pair. I love the level of concentration and intention I bring; focusing on my own energy and what I can offer to the other and then being attentive to what energies I perceive from the other, then lastly bringing my mind's eye to the beautiful mandala we are creating together.

I took part in the candle night at Tara with friends and with a lover, and in every case it was a sublime experience. This event allowed me to connect deeply with the other person, discovering nuances of their character I hadn't known before, and to practise love in a truly unique and special way. The atmosphere when I entered the room was always soft and relaxing, something really rejuvenating after a long day of work. The teachers always explained the practice very well, allowing me to integrate my personal knowledge on the topic even though I already had experience. I consider this one of the best practices and events that Tara offers, and I look forward to the next time I can participate.

The couples yoga was a great introductory session, into the different realms of union possible, in a relationship.

Hassan

It made me explore my partner's inner universe in a way that transcends words. This has led to more understanding and a deepening of the relationship.
