Yoga in Fremantle & South

Charley has taught for over two decades from shared studio spaces in Applecross, Bateman and Hilton, with a practice built deliberately for stiff mornings and old injuries rather than for people who already bend easily. Gentle therapeutic yoga, strength work, mindfulness and meditation, plus private yoga-therapy sessions, seniors classes and online options. Registered as a Yoga Therapist with both Yoga Australia and IAYT, and a Level 3 teacher.

A Bikram studio south of the river, running the original set sequence in a heated room. The studio makes a point of the practice being for people who do not think of themselves as yoga people — its own words are that you do not need to be fit, or young, or a devotee — and first-timers are given mat and towel hire at no cost. An introductory pass covers twenty-five days of unlimited classes.

Lyndal runs a monthly women's circle on the last Saturday of the month, 7–9pm, at the Fremantle Yoga Centre space on Petra Street. Evenings move through grounding meditation with sound, yin yoga, a cacao ritual and guided sharing by candlelight, with themes following the seasons and moon phases.

A North Fremantle studio whose timetable runs from power yoga and sculpt Pilates down to yin, restorative, and a yoga nidra class held inside live crystal-bowl sound healing — the guided yogic-sleep practice done properly, lying down, with the room resonating. Drop-ins $32, memberships from $39 a week.

Jai Ram teaches pregnancy and postnatal yoga on South Street and very little else — a studio built around one stretch of life rather than a timetable that happens to include a prenatal slot. Courses run in ten-week cycles following school terms, with a six-week intensive inside them, and Mama Baba classes carry on afterwards with the baby in the room.

A full spectrum of yoga offerings all designed to strengthen and open your body, calm your mind and restore balance. It's the perfect practice for navigating the fast pace of modern life. The Lab is a large space in the heart of Freo with a minimalist design, offering plenty of room even in busier classes. We run regular workshops, retreats and teacher trainings.

Fremantle's yoga and Ayurveda house, running since 2008: daily classes from gentle to dynamic, Friday-evening yoga nidra and deep-restore sessions, and an Ayurvedic clinic alongside — consultations, massage and steambox treatments. Six-week beginner courses from $126 prepaid; even Bollywood dance gets a slot in the week.

Neerja Ahuja's Applecross centre pairs classical Ayurvedic treatment — snehana herbal-oil massage, nasya, purvakarma and panchakarma programs — with diet and lifestyle sessions and yoga nidra. A long-established practice on the south side of the river with consultations and treatments booked separately.

A dedicated Ayurvedic centre in a Fremantle cottage offering consultations, abhyanga oil massage, panchakarma programs and rasayana therapy in the classical Kerala tradition, guided by senior advisor Dr L. Mahadevan. There are yoga classes, a herbal dispensary, courses and a supervised student clinic. Open Monday to Saturday.

A small studio within the Sanctuary Wellness Collective on Wood Street, Fremantle, founded by Amy and run as a collective of women practitioners. The published programme includes a fortnightly Monday meditation and sound bath from 6.30pm to 7.30pm, a weekly Thursday evening stretch class, and monthly sound bath and yoga events. Practitioners also offer one-on-one sessions in reiki, breathwork, yoga therapy, kinesiology and remedial massage, by appointment.

Fremantle's Spanda School runs structured silent retreats built on non-dual meditation, gentle movement and rest — one-day sittings at the school itself, and three- and seven-day residentials at Donnelly Lakes near Pemberton. Two formats serve different depths of practice: a guided version for those newer to silence, and longer unguided sits for experienced meditators. Around a hundred students come through each year, some from interstate and overseas.

Monthly two-hour conscious connected breathwork in a warm room at Spanda Yoga, capped at ten people. Sessions pair the guided breathing with plain-science education and a follow-up email the next day, which is more aftercare than most group breathwork offers. Mats, bolsters and blankets provided.
