Yoga, art and movement are different expressions of the same intention: to cultivate ways of living that bring us closer to ourselves, to nature and to the divine.
Making space for healing, connection and creativity.
Movement as a way of arriving.
Yoga sessions guided by breath, presence and creative sequencing.
Based in Marrakech, I teach Vinyasa, Hatha Flow and Yin, integrating pranayama and meditation into practices adapted to different levels. My approach combines attentive guidance, mindful adjustments and music, with space to find your own rhythm.
A love for dance & performances informs fluid sequencing, while a longstanding meditation practice brings an intention of quietness.
Individual attention, a tailored pace and a practice shaped around your experience and intentions. From gentle movement to a stronger flow, with breath and presence throughout.

I'm Lucy, a British Chinese artist and yoga teacher based in Marrakech.
My work brings together creativity and consciousness through yoga, meditation, art and movement. Years of contemplative practice, living across different cultures and creative work have shaped the way I teach and create, alongside a deep connection with nature and a commitment to nutrition and wellbeing.
I'm particularly drawn to the ways creativity and conscious practice can bring us closer to ourselves, to nature and to something greater than ourselves.
Studio Luya is where these different strands come together.
