Tenerife
Tenerife, the largest of Spain’s Canary Islands, is known for its breathtaking natural beauty and year-round warm weather, making it an ideal setting for a rejuvenating yoga course. The island’s diverse landscapes range from stunning volcanic beaches to lush forests and mountainous terrain, giving visitors endless options for outdoor exploration. The crown jewel, Mount Teide, is Spain’s highest peak and one of the world’s largest volcanoes. With a stunning national park surrounding it, Teide offers breathtaking views, unique flora and fauna and an otherworldly experience of Tenerife’s volcanic landscape.
In addition to its breathtaking landscapes, Tenerife is steeped in vibrant culture and rich traditions that reflect its Spanish and Guanche (indigenous) heritage. From bustling local markets and vibrant festivals to centuries-old towns with colonial architecture, the island provides a warm and welcoming environment. Towns like La Orotava and Garachico preserve this cultural heritage, offering visitors a chance to step back in time and experience Tenerife’s historical roots. Whether exploring traditional arts and crafts, tasting local dishes, or mingling with friendly locals, visitors can enjoy an immersive experience of Canarian life.
With its laid-back atmosphere, stunning coastlines and array of outdoor activities, Tenerife is a perfect escape for anyone seeking balance, adventure, and personal transformation. Between yoga sessions, students can surf, kayak, hike in the Anaga Mountains, or simply unwind on the beach.
The island’s tranquil ambiance and natural beauty align harmoniously with a yogic lifestyle, making Tenerife a unique destination to relax, recharge, and deepen one’s yoga practice.

At Shambhala Yoga School, we offer a space that embodies the meaning of “Shambhala”—a mythical place of peace and self-discovery, said to be hidden in the Himalayas. Just like this mystical haven, our school provides a nurturing environment where students can deeply connect with themselves, grow and learn the foundations of yoga in a holistic way.
As a Canarian family-owned and operated school, we pride ourselves on offering a personal, welcoming approach.
