Try Floating Yoga at Rosewood Mayakoba  

With a holistic approach to wellness, Sense, A Rosewood Spa at Rosewood Mayakoba, is a true haven amidst the jungle, where personalized experiences allow you to embark on the journey that best suits your body and soul. Upon check-in, head to the Spa to view their daily wellness and fitness schedule, where you’ll surely find the practice you’re looking for. Meditation is an essential part of the program, making the most of the Spa’s serene setting to provide a grounding, relaxing experience.

Yogis will be delighted with the varied yoga offerings at the Spa. If you love the energy of practicing with others, you can join group classes suitable for all levels. While Vinyasa yoga is the most popular class, the Spa’s instructor can tailor the classes according to the group’s needs. If you’re looking for a personalized experience, a private practice is ideal for you. The Spa offers a range of styles, from powerful Ashtanga to slower, soothing options like Yin and restorative yoga. You can even book a prenatal yoga class or a Pranayama session and learn to master the art of breathwork. For a refreshing challenge, book a spot in the Floating Yoga class. Held on paddle boards in the Spa’s tranquil pool, this class (also known as SUP Yoga) will add an extra boost of strength and balance to your practice.

Find your Way to Balance with Banyan Tree Mayakoba Yoga Classes and Meditation Sessions 

Known as the Sanctuary for the Senses, Banyan Tree Mayakoba is home to an extensive and ever-evolving wellness program whose heart lies at the serene Banyan Tree Spa. Available to all guests, the Spa’s activities include a variety of themed meditations that will allow you to connect with yourself and embrace your innermost thoughts and feelings, even if it’s the first time you try this practice. Perhaps you can try a Sleep Meditation to help you unwind and achieve a deep slumber, or a Gratitude Meditation to harness feelings of thankfulness and abundance.

The Banyan Tree Spa is also a paradise for yogis. Whether you’re a loyal Vinyasa, Hatha, or Yin fan, or you want to try a new style, there are always a few different options on the roster. Classes usually take place in the morning to avoid high tropical temperatures, but you can stay updated about the entire fitness and wellness schedule by contacting the Spa team. The best part: practicing in the Spa’s Yoga Pavilion, a lovely, airy space surrounded by lush vegetation that will inspire you to try a new class every day of your stay.

Step into a World of Mindfulness with Yoga Classes at Fairmont Mayakoba

The road to relaxation at the Fairmont Spa begins the moment you step into the tranquil lobby, and continues as you walk down the sensory path. Lined with sand, stones, grass, and other textures, it will invite you to connect to your senses and slowly leave the outside noise behind. Throughout your stay, you’ll have access to a holistic wellness program that includes a variety of fitness classes, including different yoga styles. If this is your first time practicing, check out Yoga for All, designed for yogis of all levels –even total beginners! 

If you’re into the more modern styles of yoga, Vinyasa is for you. This style of yoga connects asanas (postures) with breath in smooth transitions, making for a mindful, moving meditation. And if you’re up for something new, try Aqua Yoga, where water adds an element of surprise and freshness to your practice. Make sure to contact the Spa team at Fairmont Mayakoba to inquire about class schedules.

Andaz Mayakoba Meditation and Yoga Sessions Create a Mindful Stay

If you’re in search of a moment of deep calm and introspection, look no further than Naum Spa’s Echoes of Tranquility session. Using a variety of musical instruments, this sound healing therapy will help you achieve a greater sense of balance, as delicate melodies and vibrations send soothing waves through your entire system. To harness the powers of local Mayan wisdom, try the Guided Path to Inner Harmony, a meditation led by Andaz Mayakoba’s own Resident Shaman. Using incense and ancient instruments, this powerful self-discovery journey will lead you to explore your mind and spirit.

When it comes to yoga, Naum Spa welcomes you with a Hatha Yoga class, one of the most traditional forms of yoga.
