What is yoga?
“yogaś citta-vrtti-nirodhah”
Yoga is the inner state in which the mind comes to rest -
Patañjali Yoga Sutra, I.2
For some, yoga is a sport, for others it is meditation, for many people it is a path, a philosophy of life that helps them to get to know themselves better, recognize their limits and become more aware of their own body and mind.
A multitude of different approaches, schools and yoga paths have developed from thousands of years of tradition and have brought yoga from India to the world — from acrobatics to absolute tranquillity — everything is possible. You can only find out for yourself what suits you best.
Am I flexible enough for yoga? Am I even suitable for starting yoga?
OF COURSE!!! Yoga is not about flexibility. It’s not about finding the perfect position, jumping into a handstand or touching the tips of your toes with your fingers. It’s about consciously taking time for yourself, breathing, moving and feeling your body. A long-term benefit of a yoga practice is of course more flexibility, strength and mobility in body and mind.
Yoga is suitable for everyone, regardless of fitness level or injury. There are countless different styles of yoga, from very calm and slow to more strenuous — there is something for everyone. There are also lots of variations for injuries, making almost any position possible. It’s best to try out a few classes and teachers at the beginning to see what you personally like best.

Is online registration necessary for all units?
To answer the question right away: online registration is not mandatory, only in the case of particularly busy sessions, i.e. those with pre-registration have priority. We have
Your registration is binding, will be booked to your account and guarantees you a place in the unit. In the interests of fairness to others, we ask you to cancel your booking in good time (up to 6 hours before the start of the lesson) if something comes up and you are unable to attend. Units booked but not consumed will not be credited back. The “Late Cancel” option (i.e. you cancel less than 6 hours before the start of the lesson) is purely to inform the teacher that you will not be coming, but the lesson will be deducted as no one on the waiting list had the chance to come at short notice.
How does the waiting list work?
If a class is fully booked, there is an option to put you on the waiting list. If you put yourself on the waiting list, you will receive a notification when a place becomes available again (because another customer has canceled) and you can register for the place that has become free.

What do I need for my first yoga session?
Bring along
The most important thing: YOU
Comfortable clothing
To exercise, you need clothes in which you feel comfortable and in which you can move well. In the Feelgoodstudio we attach great importance to the fact that you can be yourself — there is no room for outward appearances here. The Feelgoodstudio is a colorful place where everyone can be dressed the way they want — be yourself!
Yoga mat?
For all regular “non-hot” classes in our
studios 1070, 1040 & 1160 we offer free rental mats. But: the more intense, enthusiastic and enjoyable your yoga practice becomes, the more we recommend having your own mat (+ it’s ideal for practicing at home online classes & videos).
For “Hot” Classes in 1150 please bring your own mat + towel. There is the possibility to rent a mat and a towel on site. mat 3€ | towel 3€ | mat + towel 5€

Be a yogi, be on time
Our sessions start on time, so please be at the studio in good time so that you can get changed, arrive in peace, etc. If you are joining us for the first time, please arrive at least 10 minutes before the start of the session.
The practice room is a place of peace and quiet
Some of us begin our practice with a few minutes of silence, please respect this and avoid conversations etc. in the practice room. Your cell phone will also be happy to wait for you (silently!) in the checkroom and has no place in the practice room.
A full belly doesn’t like to yoga
A full belly is a hindrance to getting all the flexibility and mobility benefits from your practice. Therefore, try not to eat for 2 hours before practicing.
Sauca means inner and outer cleanliness
One of the underlying concepts of any yoga practice is Sauca, which stands for inner and outer purity. If you manage to leave any worries/burdens/to do’s etc. outside, you will be able to enjoy your practice more and who knows, maybe you will see it from a different perspective after the practice…The practice room is a cell phone and shoe-free zone and we ask you to pay attention to clean clothes and physical hygiene for the sake of everyone (you are welcome to shower before the session). Please leave large items (bags, rucksacks) in the changing room and try to leave as little as possible lying around in the room. Keeping things tidy on the outside will clear your head and calm you down on the inside.
