Goa Season

ASHTANGA YOGA PATNEM

ASHTANGA YOGA PATNEM

Ashtanga Yoga Patnem was born in October 2024 as the first school dedicated to traditional Ashtanga Yoga in South Goa.

Since then, we have shared two beautiful seasons in Patnem, from October to April, following the traditional Mysore method and creating a warm and dedicated community around the practice of Ashtanga Yoga.

We are grateful for the community that has grown around the practice, and for everyone who has shared these seasons with us.

We will be updating this website with information about upcoming seasons and programs. In the meantime, if you would like to know more, you are welcome to contact Laia directly.


Patnem is one of the most beautiful and peaceful beaches in South Goa, India. Surrounded by nature, its crescent-shaped shoreline with golden sand and calm sea offers the perfect setting to rest and reconnect. It’s a place to enjoy silence, serenity, and a relaxed atmosphere — all immersed in the authentic spirit of India, right by the sea in this little paradise.

This is where everything began around 15 years ago. From Patnem, I took the bus that would take me first time to Mysore to study at KPJAYI with the Jois family. After all these years, I returned last season to start the first Ashtanga Yoga Mysore program in South Goa. Nothing is a coincidence — the circle has come full.

Are you coming?

Goa Season

The season begins November and runs until March. Throughout the season, we offer a complete program following the Mysore-style
tradition of Ashtanga Yoga, including regular classes in meditation, pranayama, yoga philosophy, and chanting.

All levels of practitioners are welcome:

● regular and dedicated students,
● those looking to integrate a real yoga practice into their daily life,
● and beginners, who can join through our ashtanga foundations course, one month course or led ashtanga modified that we offer Monday to thursday after mysore class.

We’ll also offer special classes and themed programs during the season — information will be shared soon.

We are dedicated to the teaching of Ashtanga Yoga in its traditional form, honouring the lineage and wisdom of the practice, while embracing a human, open, and adaptive approach — both to the individuality and the specific needs of each student.
