YOGA IN GANDUM
Start your day in harmony with nature
At Gandum Village, the day begins slowly. Yoga sessions at dawn are an invitation to wake up your body and mind at one of the quietest times of the day, surrounded by the open landscape of the Alentejo and the silence that only the countryside can offer.
Practicing yoga at sunrise, outdoors, allows for a deeper connection with yourself and your surroundings. The soft morning light, fresh air, and calm rhythm create the ideal conditions to start the day with clarity, balance, and energy.
How the session works
The sessions are led by experienced teachers, with practices accessible to all levels, from beginners to regular practitioners. The approach is simple, mindful, and respectful of each participant's pace, focusing on breathing, mobility, and presence.
The practice takes place outdoors, in a quiet corner of the property, chosen daily according to weather conditions. The natural setting is part of the experience—no rush, no noise, no distractions.
Gandum provides yoga mats and blocks, ensuring comfort and simplicity. If you prefer, you can bring your own equipment.
