Worth knowing before you book

Thinking about yoga in Brisbane? The city’s yoga scene is pretty laid-back, and you won’t find the usual overcrowded class problem. If you’re here in the cooler months (May to September), look for indoor studios where it’s warmer, but spring and autumn are prime for outdoor classes.

If you want to try a retreat but don’t want to go too far, O’Reilly’s in the Scenic Rim is an easy escape. It blends yoga with birdwatching and bushwalking so you get fresh air and calm all at once. Oh, and make sure you check if the studio or retreat has any special themes or guest teachers to keep things interesting!
