Wellness Escape: Yoga, Massage & Beach Relaxation in Lisbon

The retreat runs out of Laya Studio, a dedicated dance, yoga and Pilates space in the centre of Parede, right next to the train station. Your room is above the studio in a building that was renovated in 2016, keeping the clean mid-century look of the original 1960s structure. Everything is in walking distance: the beach is three minutes away, and the famous pastry shops and restaurants of Parede are on your doorstep.

Each day starts with a morning yoga session on the rooftop studio, which has a pool and a view over the sea and the Sintra hills. After that, there's a wholesome brunch at Jay's Caffé, a short walk from the studio. Evenings finish with a more restorative class to wind down. The practice style is mostly Hatha, with restorative sessions built in, and the teaching team includes Cláudia, a local dancer and Thai Yoga Massage specialist, and Vânia, a holistic therapist with over ten years of experience.
