Text: Tiff H
While we were utterly grateful for online yoga classes guiding us through downward dogs and warrior poses during the rollercoaster that was circuit breaker and Phase 1, we have been positively ecstatic about the reopening of workout and wellness studios (with their enhanced safety measures and hygiene protocols, of course).
Whether you’re looking for a morning Vinyasa flow, a much-needed stretch after sitting at your desk all day, or a Yin session to slow things down before bedtime, we have a host of yoga studios in Singapore for you to mix and match according to your intentions.

A studio that caters to beginners, experienced practitioners and everyone in between, Yoga Movement offers multi-level classes categorised by their focus, pace and sweat level. For those whose first foray into yoga was through online classes when we were all stuck indoors, opt for the Basics class which focuses on alignment, foundation, flexibility and muscle tone. Seasoned yogis can check out the fast-paced Power Flow class that works up a sweat on that yoga mat.

3. Freedom Yoga
Offering sanctuaries for practice and connection, Freedom Yoga’s three studios are escapes from our hectic urban life. The signature Freedom Flow is a vinyasa flow-based class, which creates a harmonious balance between the mind and body. The slower Time Out creates space for stillness while nourishing joints and ligaments. For something in between, the Yin Yang class starts with a gentle vinyasa flow sequence before seamlessly transitioning into passive yin and restorative poses, which allows the nervous system to reset.

4. Yoga+
Yoga+ was born out of the desire to create a holistic space that goes beyond the physical realm of yoga. By redefining the collective understanding of yoga, Yoga+ seeks to explore the possibilities of yoga beyond its asanas. Restore is a hybrid class that marries both the vinyasa flow practice and high-intensity interval training (HIIT). It offers a vinyasa flow class that is infused with cardio movements aimed to get your heart rate up. Those looking to take things up a notch can try the Invert class, which focuses on arm balances and inversions which include, but not limited to, crow pose, side crow, headstands, forearm stands, handstands, and more.

6. COMO Shambhala Urban Escape Singapore
While COMO Shambhala Urban Estate Singapore offers yoga, Pilates and spa treatments, it’s the ashtanga yoga classes we love, especially as they can be hard to find here. Make no mistake, the 90-minute session is tough. There’s a strict sequence to follow, but the benefits include improved flexibility, detoxification, and strength of body and mind. The 7.30am class is a fabulous way to start your day feeling recharged and energised.
Address: Delifi Orchard, 402 Orchard Road, #06–01/02, Delfi 238876
Pricing: SGD 40 for an Adult Single Class, SGD 185 for a block of five adult classes (valid for 2 months), SGD 330 for a block of ten adult classes (valid for 4 months), SGD 350 for unlimited adult classes (valid for 30 days). Prices for prenatal packages, kids and teens are also available.
