Although I have been practicing it for more than 10 years, my first contact with yoga in a hotel was late. It happened opening a closet. I was in London and when I was hanging up my clothes, a yoga mat suddenly appeared. I was amazed. Like so many lavish gestures, it wasn't about money, even though he was in a lavish hotel like the Mandarin Oriental London. Then, traveling and traveling, I learned that this chain pays special attention to yoga and it is easy to take classes in their hotels. For example, in the Tokyo Mandarin , at night they place a tray on top of the bed to lead you to relax . It includes essential oils, the ineffable mat and a remote control with a TV channel tuned to different yoga sessions. Well thought out and best executed. How not to sleep and have sweet dreams?

In-room yoga is the easiest way to practice asanas while traveling. The london metropolitan hotel offers free yoga mats and channels. The Hilton McLean Tysons Corner , very close to Washington, provides yoga to its guests in its Yoga Room, a special room for traveling yogis. Includes an ad hoc floor, mirror and special yoga accessories. Relaxing in savasana has never been easier.

However, the option of taking classes at the hotel is the most widespread. We all have in our heads the image of a stringy person with closed eyes in an active/meditative attitude in a pluperfect environment. because some days we live listening to the rhythms of nature nothing happens to us. More and more hotels offer free classes as an extra service to their guests. The mythical ** Parrot Cay by COMO ** in the Turks and Caicos Islands, a refuge for the happy few, offers daily yoga classes with top-level teachers. The full moon or sunset and sunrise are the most spiritual times of the day , in which the frequency and intensity of the proposals increases.

Because who can resist following an internship in an idyllic setting like the **Royal Palm**, by Beachcomber in Mauritius? You have to have a lot of will to stay sleeping in the room being able to be inhaling and exhaling facing the sea. Or vice versa. The Palais Namaskar , from Marrakech, also signs up and offers, not only days, but even “months of yoga”. Sleeping one night in that palm grove oasis is a great plan, but doing it for a month and practicing the lotus flower is a delirium.

And we can curl the curl, something that we love. You can combine a safari with yoga , how does he Sasaab Samburu , in Kenya. This rarity allows you to perform postures with the Samboro National Park in the background. We recommend opening your eyes to see it. Another eccentricity, in its most literal sense, is offered by ** Esperanza, in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico **. In this oasis children from 6 to 12 years old can practice Hatha Yoga for free once a week. It is not the most normal thing to entertain them, but a salutation to the Sun may be better than a salutation to the iPad.
