Practising yoga on the terrace of Le Relais U Machjonu means trading the white walls of a Parisian studio for a 180° panorama over lake Tolla and the Renoso mountains. The Relais is a former stone chestnut-drying barn turned into a charming dormitory at 600 m altitude, 30 minutes from Ajaccio and 5 minutes from the lake. The silence is broken only by the wind through the chestnut trees and the maquis, and by birdsong. Here are our formats.

Individual or duo sessions

If you are staying at the Relais and would like a one-off yoga session, we can look for a local independent teacher for 1h or 1h30 in your time slot. Sessions on request and to be booked in advance (ideally at least 1 week, subject to the teacher's availability) — pricing is set directly by the teacher and confirmed at quotation.

Group sessions

For groups privatising the Relais (birthday, hen party, seminar, retreat), one or several yoga sessions can be added to the programme. Classic format: morning yoga (45 min) before breakfast. On request and to be booked in advance — pricing confirmed at quotation depending on the teacher mobilised.

Disciplines available depending on the teacher

  • Vinyasa (dynamic, ideal in the morning).
  • Hatha (gentle, held postures).
  • Yin yoga (passive, ideal at the end of the day).
  • Pilates (matwork, no specific equipment).
  • Guided meditation (10-30 min, also possible solo or in a group).
  • Heart coherence (5-10 min, short repeated sessions).
