The Saunayoga poses, done at a leisurely pace in the silence of the sauna, take care of the body and relax the mind. The poses are based on various yoga styles and practised seated in a temperature of approximately 50°C (120°F). Some of the poses help to relieve tensions in the neck and shoulder region and remove excessive strain on the spine and surrounding musculature, while others work to strengthen the trunk and leg muscles. The gentle heat of the sauna effectively melts away the strains and the beneficial effects can be felt immediately after a single session.
Saunayoga can be an individual practice in a domestic sauna setting or you can attend one of the instructed group sessions available. The instructed Saunayoga session lasts for 30-45 minutes. It is suitable for everyone and requires no previous yoga training experience.
Crafting a vihta is a process of connecting with nature—at its best, it becomes a form of active meditation.
Come and make your own small vihta in the style of traditional sauna healers.
There are many types of vihta, and many names for them. In this workshop, you’ll create a special kind of vihta—a small, beautiful bundle made to soothe the heart. Its role is to bring a piece of the forest into the sauna, gently gather the worries resting in your heart, and carry them away into the air with the löyly.
Vihtas can be made from almost any kind of plant, as long as they are not toxic. The workshop offers a selection of different branches and twigs. Please note that the plants may cause allergic reactions.
Workshop duration 1 hour, max. 20 person per group.
Payments on the spot by credit card (Visa, V PAY, Mastercard, Maestro, American Express, Discover, Diners Club or Union Pay).

Social bathing has long been part of human culture, and its modern revival reflects our deep need for connection. Sauna, in particular, creates a shared space for relaxation, conversation, and community. The heat not only eases the body but also boosts endorphins and oxytocin—hormones linked to well-being and bonding. In a digital world, social bathing offers a timeless way to reconnect and restore.

The Saunayoga poses, done at a leisurely pace in the silence of the sauna, take care of the body and relax the mind. The poses are based on various yoga styles and practised seated in a temperature of approximately 50°C (120°F). Some of the poses help to relieve tensions in the neck and shoulder region and remove excessive strain on the spine and surrounding musculature, while others work to strengthen the trunk and leg muscles. The gentle heat of the sauna effectively melts away the strains and the beneficial effects can be felt immediately after a single session.
Saunayoga can be an individual practice in a domestic sauna setting or you can attend one of the instructed group sessions available. The instructed Saunayoga session lasts for 30-45 minutes. It is suitable for everyone and requires no previous yoga training experience.
Crafting a vihta is a process of connecting with nature—at its best, it becomes a form of active meditation.
Come and make your own small vihta in the style of traditional sauna healers.
There are many types of vihta, and many names for them. In this workshop, you’ll create a special kind of vihta—a small, beautiful bundle made to soothe the heart. Its role is to bring a piece of the forest into the sauna, gently gather the worries resting in your heart, and carry them away into the air with the löyly.
Vihtas can be made from almost any kind of plant, as long as they are not toxic. The workshop offers a selection of different branches and twigs. Please note that the plants may cause allergic reactions.
Workshop duration 1 hour, max. 20 person per group.
Payments on the spot by credit card (Visa, V PAY, Mastercard, Maestro, American Express, Discover, Diners Club or Union Pay).

Join Dr. Lassi Liikkanen for an immersive and detailed exploration of the principles behind designing and constructing the perfect Finnish sauna. In this workshop, Dr. Liikkanen will share his four-faceted model of sauna experience design, offering valuable insights into how heating, air quality, and interior design come together to create an authentic and enjoyable sauna experience.
Social bathing has long been part of human culture, and its modern revival reflects our deep need for connection. Sauna, in particular, creates a shared space for relaxation, conversation, and community. The heat not only eases the body but also boosts endorphins and oxytocin—hormones linked to well-being and bonding. In a digital world, social bathing offers a timeless way to reconnect and restore.
