Sark suits slowing down: no cars, no streetlights, and a pace set by hooves and footsteps. Yoga and gentle movement fit right in, whether you’re experienced or have never unrolled a mat.
Below is a selection of the venues and classes on offer across the island, not a complete list. New sessions and events come and go, so it’s worth checking for the latest.

Planning Your Visit
Check dates before you travel, as times can change with the season, and sauna sessions shift with the tides. Stay across a Monday and Tuesday for both classes, or come for a weekend of sauna and swimming.
