Your boutique yoga studio in the historic center of Todi, with Umbrian brick ceilings, and a soothing water feature, offers a cozy, welcoming space perfect for a mindful yoga practice. The intentional absence of mirrors helps students focus inward, while small class sizes ensure a safe, supportive environment with personalised attention. Classes are taught in English.
All yoga equipment is thoughtfully provided for every student, ensuring a comfortable and supportive practice. Props include high-quality 6mm thick mats, blankets, blocks, bolsters, straps, and lavender eye pillows to enhance your relaxation.
We have a separate changing room to change your clothes before and after class and to store your personal belongings. Additionally, we have a small private bathroom available for use anytime before, during or after class.
Our students enjoy socializing and connecting in our cozy entrance lounge before and after class. This inviting space encourages conversation and community among fellow practitioners. Additionally, we provide water before and after class, and often soothing herbal tea after class.
Vinyasa yoga is a practice that helps enhance overall health and well-being. It is a “Yang” type of yoga - fast paced and dynamic. You will continuously move from one pose into the next, called an asana or flow. Sessions will begin with setting an intention, breath work, moving through a flow to music, ending with savasana. This class is suitable for beginner through experienced yoga practitioners.

Yin yang yoga is a practice that focuses on relaxing (Yin) and strengthening (Yang). It is a class in which you are both physically challenged and completely relaxed. Sometimes we begin with Yin, sometimes Yang. Either way, by balancing your Yin and Yang, your energy flow will increase, giving you a peaceful balanced mind and body. This class is suitable for beginner through experienced yoga practitioners.

Hatha yoga is a slower paced practice that involves precision, alignment, stability, grounding, strength and flexibility. A typical Hatha class includes holding postures for a few breaths at a time, putting focus on individual postures rather than the sequence and linking between postures.

Yin yoga is the perfect compliment to Vinyasa. It targets your deep connective tissues, like your fascia, hips, spine, ligaments, and joints. Because you’re holding poses for 3-5 minutes, it helps you stretch and lengthen those rarely-used tissues, while also teaching you how to breathe through discomfort and sit with your thoughts. This is a very passive, yet challenging class and is suitable for all levels.

Restorative yoga is a passive type of yoga that explores relaxation and gentle stretching, in which poses are held for longer periods (5-20 minutes), typically involving props for support. It is purely a relax and release practice. This practice is especially beneficial to those who are recovering from an injury or illness, experiencing a great deal of stress, or those who just want to slow down and relax.

Thai Yoga Massage enhances your yoga practice and combines techniques from Thai massage, shiatsu, and yoga postures. The body is stretched, joints are moved, and it feels like your own sacred dance. This ancient technique activates self-healing within the body, promotes relaxation, wellness, and emotional balance. The massage is done fully clothed on a large, comfortable floor mat.

What people are saying
"My love for Yoga started right here! Excellent…. In every way! I find the classes very easy to understand, Jennifer thinks outside the box and makes classes dependent on the students level. A very peaceful and energising teacher. Always considerate and calming which makes me feel comfortable at all times. Thank you! Definitely recommend this place to take Yoga.”
-Karen
"I highly recommend Jennifer's beautiful and peaceful yoga studio. I love yoga and I am quite picky about the studios and classes that I attend. Elementyl is one of my favorites yet. All classes are well-planned with a nice flow. Yoga mats and props are of the highest quality. My teen-age daughter is new at yoga, while I am more experienced, but the classes work really well for both of us which speaks of a great teacher. I am very happy about this addition to our small town!"

"Stepping inside you immediately feel a sense of calm, even among the pre-class chat! I have tried a few yoga classes over the years but never stuck at it. Having recently moved to Todi and finding these classes ran in English, I decided to give it a go, mostly as a way to meet people! I am so glad I did! I am now a regular at the Vinyasa class which is guided so well by Jen. The class always flows beautifully and with such small class sizes, she gives individual attention as needed. I feel my muscles working as we work through the poses, and I can feel the improvement week by week."

“Just had a Thai Yoga message, Nicole was incredible. Unlike a “Swedish” massage, this massage is precise, subtle, with stretching and movement that totally relax you. Absolutely loved it and very glad that Elementyl has added this to their offering.”
-Michael
“During a few weeks' stay in Umbria, I had the chance to discover this yoga center. Jennifer, the founder, is very welcoming, and her unpretentious classes offer a space for rejuvenation, self-reflection, and shared good spirits. Jennifer has a gift for hospitality and has created a warm and inviting place.”
