Yoga, breathwork & meditation retreat studio
Our yoga retreat studio & meditation center in Skåne showcases a harmonious blend of historical preservation and modern functionality. Spanning approximately 50 square meters, this space was once an old Skåne water mill, a fact that has significantly influenced its current design and character.
The studio's cultural importance required us to work closely with an architectural historian during its renovation, ensuring we met the municipality's requirements for preserving the mill's structure and historical significance. The result is a unique space that many have likened to a fusion of a Japanese Zen temple and a museum, in the most positive sense.
Capacity and equipment
The studio can accommodate up to 11 participants for yoga and movement exercises, or 20 participants for classes, workshops, and other events. It comes fully equipped with props for yoga and meditation. A sound system is available for use during sessions.
