We feel so unbelievably grateful for the beautiful spaces and the amazing teachers we have here at Sunshine Yoga. To practice. To relax. To be happy. It started as a day-dream, a typical 20-something unsatisfied office worker with a regular yoga practice since her teens. Day after day staring out an office window, Stephanie (Sunshine Yogini) wondered if this was it.
We've gathered a wide range of Edinburgh's most talented teachers and built a community of yogi's across many styles. In the welcoming atmosphere of our beautiful yoga space, we've created what we believe is the ultimate yoga studio!. Matt has always enjoyed movement through sport, he came to yoga as a means to ease out aches and pains from years of football and cricket.

As a first timer to yoga, I could not recommend this studio enough. Not only do they provide several classes throughout the day, 7 days a week at an extremely affordable price, they also create an extremely comfortable, welcoming and very friendly environment. The level of professionalism is extremely high and from the moment you step into the room, you can clearly feel how passionate they are in what they do. 5 stars do not make justice to the incredible experience you will get by attending their classes.
If you think about whether this is the right place, get in touch with them, you will not

I love this studio! It combines all that I need from yoga:
- the most welcoming and not intimidating people running it,
- range of classes varies for different moods and intensities,
- there's nice selection of classes' times, suitable for office workers,
- the price for regulars is great,
and again - owners and teachers are helpful, professional, and have positive mind-set.
One additional detail, which is really important for me - there are cosy blankets available (more than 1 per person), so no one freezes in savasana during winter (or in my case, I don't freeze during Scottish summer either

Having recently just relocated from California to Scotland, I was on the hunt for a yoga studio I could call home. Maybe it was the name that first truly drew me to Sunshine yoga, as I was trading in the perpetual sunshine of LA for more dramatic skies. There was also something undeniably comforting about looking at photos of the space itself online. I have a tendency to follow my instincts in life and this was no different. The first class I attended was with Stephanie, the lovely owner. The studio, like Stephanie, is incredibly welcoming. I needed a sacred space that reminded me of what I loved

Wow! What a beautiful little haven. My favourite yoga studio. The only thing I hate is that fact I didn't discover it sooner.
SY is so much more than your average studio and I couldn't recommend it more. Stephanie, Matt and the rest of the instructors are attentive to the needs of the class and very welcoming. The cafe adds a unique vibe that makes you want to stay there forever!
Happy anniversary SY! It's incredible to think what has been achieved in only one short year and I'm sure the place will continue to go from strength to strength.
I look forward to dropping in, next time I'm in Edinburgh

Sunshine yoga is a lovely studio offering a wide range of yoga and meditation classes for people of all abilities. I’ve yet to find an instructor that isn’t fantastic. There’s nothing more relaxing than the warm yin yoga class and the sunrise classes are excellent too – a great way to get moving and waken your body up at the start of the day! Stephanie has created such a welcoming community here and I love to settle down on one of the sofas in the café for a raw cake after class. A little yoga haven!

This studio is a little enclave of happiness and relaxation ! There are enough different classes to suit all abilities and interests, my particular favourites being the sunshine morning sessions which set me up beautifully for the day and the power yoga which is more of a workout than my runs, whilst still leaving me totally relaxed and energised for my day. It's lovely to spend some time here, with a raw cake which is delicious and yummy hot chocolate post class and a natter with all the other yogis that go here. I've yet to find someone I didn't get on with, it's such a lovely welcoming community
