June 21 is International Yoga Day. Whether you’re a total newbie or your downward dog is already flawless, it’s the perfect excuse to hit the mat.
Cairo’s yoga scene has quietly grown into something pretty special, with studios across the city offering everything from aerial yoga to mummy-and-me classes. Here’s a guide to some of the coolest spots to get your stretch (and zen) on.
Flexana – New Cairo
Don’t worry if you’ve never stepped on a mat before—Flexana makes starting easy with beginner-friendly classes that won’t leave you feeling lost.
They offer both mixed and ladies-only sessions, so you can choose what you’re comfortable with. Expect a variety of styles like Sukshma Yoga (for subtle body awakening), Vinyasa, and more. Basically, there’s something for every vibe.
The Mala Studio – New Cairo
This studio really said: customize your flow. At The Mala, you can book private sessions if you want a more personal pace.
They offer all kinds of yoga—from prenatal yoga to help expecting moms stay strong, to yoga for back pain (relatable), and even aerial yoga if you’re feeling adventurous. It’s basically your one-stop shop for specialized yoga in a chill space.
The Faab Space – New Cairo
Another gem in New Cairo’s wellness scene, The Faab Space is perfect if you want your yoga with a little bit of everything.
Their Core Flow classes get your muscles warm and your abs working, while Yin Yoga helps you slow down and release all that built-up tension. Expect a calm, modern space where you can truly unwind.
Osana Family Wellness – Maadi
Let’s be honest, just stepping into Osana already feels like a detox. This Maadi fave is more than just a yoga studio—it’s a full-on wellness retreat.
They’ve got your classic Vinyasa Flow, but also some pretty niche stuff like AcroYoga (yoga + acrobatics) and Mummy & Baby Yoga for new moms. Bonus: you can stay for a cup of tea or try their Tuning Fork Meditation sessions.
Within Studio – Palm Hills, 6 October
Out in Palm Hills, Within Studio offers a mix of yoga and Pilates, so you can stretch and strengthen in one place.
Their yoga offerings include Restorative Yoga to reset your nervous system, Prenatal Yoga for moms-to-be, and Functional Yoga, which focuses on movement that supports your daily life. It’s calm, cozy, and super beginner-friendly.
Whether you’re looking to touch your toes for the first time or float mid-air in aerial yoga, Cairo’s yoga studios have you covered. International Yoga Day is the perfect moment to dive in—so roll out your mat, book that class, and maybe… just maybe… find your inner peace (or at least give your back a break). Namaste, Cairo.
