Have you thought about taking up yoga in Tenerife? This is not the first time we have talked about the excellent health benefits of practicing this discipline. It has been proven that it helps to reactivate energy, releases endorphins and keeps the body in shape without having to resort to high-impact or potentially harmful exercises. Yoga is capable of connecting body and mind like you have never experienced before, and our island is the ideal place for you to receive your first lessons.
The
GF Victoria 5* GL Hotel , in its commitment to active holidays and healthy habits, has promoted oriental disciplines such as
yoga, meditation and Chi-kung from the very beginning. The excellent weather conditions of Costa Adeje and our Japanese Garden, which boasts some of the best views in the area, make up the ideal setting to start practicing yoga in Tenerife.
Your first yoga lessons in Tenerife
Whether it's your first time practicing yoga or you're already an expert in the field, you should know that our team of experts is able to adapt to the needs of each of our guests. The premise with which you should come to our classes is, above all, to know that you are going to have a good time and that this may be the beginning of a long relationship with the world of yoga and meditation.
Outdoor yoga is one of the most popular activities among our guests, so if you decide to try it, we recommend you follow these tips:
- Always choose comfortable and cool clothing so that your movements are as liberating as possible.
- Don't forget sun protection . Days can be especially sunny in the central hours of the day, so it's best to protect yourself for a perfect yoga experience in Tenerife.
- Focus especially on breathing , but let yourself go in the moment of relaxation. When you least expect it, you will work on it naturally.
- Don't stress if your flexibility isn't the best in the world. Little by little you will gain more and you will be able to cover all the movements.
- You are on holiday, so forget about negative thoughts and just worry about relaxing and enjoying the incredible views of La Gomera.
Tailor-made food
No one knows your limitations and how certain foods affect you before you start exercising better than you do. There are new methods of eating, such as
intermittent fasting , that are becoming more and more widespread. In fact, it is quite common to find guests who start their yoga routine without eating anything at all.
Not everyone has the same willpower and, we insist, each person knows their own limitations. However,
our recommendation is that you avoid heavy meals before this type of activity because it is quite likely that you will not enjoy them as they deserve. Our ISO 21401 certification for all
Chaboco Buffet Restaurant hotels, for example, includes healthy options such as granola, yogurt, fruit and protein, with which you can satisfy your appetite without feeling especially heavy.
