Yoga & Massage

YOGA

At Yab Yum we hold morning yoga classes in our shala from 8.30am, and occasionally afternoon classes as well. At quiet times classes may change depending on teacher availability and number of participants.

Classes are at a level that is safe and practical for all, beginners and more experienced practitioners alike.

There is no need to book classes, simply come to reception and obtain a token.
Classes are rs. 800 per person (+18% gst/tax), or you can book a package of 5 classes with a discount.

Private classes are also available.

Please note that from mid-April to the end of May, even if we are open we usually do not hold classes due to the extreme heat.

A deep, relaxing and stress-relieving massage aimed at removing and reducing the imbalances in the body. The masseur uses cold-pressed sesame oil and works with his hands, thumbs, fingers, knuckles, fist and elbows to help loosen and release toxins from the body and thereby rejuvenate the system.

Deep techniques warm up the body and relieve tensions and a series of yoga stretches helps promote better alignment, flexibility, energy flow and breathing. The aim is relaxation and relief from the stresses of day-to-day life and a release of emotional holdings and blockages.
