Ministry of Yoga

As the peak of summer heat passes once again, we find ourselves shifting into a different phase of interaction. September almost feels like a new beginning, a new year in itself, yet carries the scent of the familiar. The steady balanced routines begin again. Planning the week of work and of service, moments to move and meditate, moments to be and to do....

An offering of yoga classes and retreats in Portugal. Something for every Yogi, from meditations, breathwork, postural development and weekends in nature.

We are absolutely blessed to welcome Tammy Williams as a guest teacher to Ministry of Yoga this September.
Tammy has an extensive background, teaching yoga and mindfulness for more than 20years including Yoga Teacher Trainings across Australia and New Zealand. Back in 2013, Melbourne, Australia Tammy guided Zoe through her first 200hr Power Vinyasa teacher training, sending Zoe onto the path of teaching.
There is something very special energetically when a teacher and student circle back together in the practices of yoga. 💫
Come and see where the roots of Zoe’s classes come from….
Book your spot at a session with Tammy, 11th September 2025. Regular class prices apply.
6:30pm Power Vinyasa

Looking for a place to practice yoga in the town centre of Lisbon, Portugal? Whilst traveling in 2013, Zoe the founder of Ministry of Yoga planted a Sankulpa (intention) to teach yoga everyday in Lisbon. It took 18months to move life from Australia and another 5 months to find a space, this came to fruition when she opened a small studio in Rossio, January 2016....

An authentic yoga studio in Lisbon Portugal. A place that puts the yogis and practice as the centre of what they do.

Join us for a profound yogic experience.

Saturday 10th May 5pm-7pm

An evening of Bhakti Yoga and Meditation with

Paramesh will begin the program with a guided meditation suitable for all experience levels—from complete beginners to seasoned practitioners. The meditation will gently bring awareness to the body and breath, creating a space of calm and presence. No prior experience is needed—just an open heart and willingness to explore.

In the second part of the program, Paramesh will lead the chanting of sacred mantras from the Hindu yoga tradition. Alongside the chanting, he will share stories of deities such as Ganesha, Sita and Rama, Krishna, and Shiva, offering insight into their qualities and significance. This helps deepen the connection to the mantras and the energies they invoke.

We look forward to a wonderful evening of yoga, connection and community.

Book via the website or app (link jn bio).

Event Ticket €30 (or early bird book and pay by 8th May €25 DM for payment options).
