    Since I joined unfold your mat I have had a few revelations. One is that i should've tried yoga first. Two is that i am so proud of my body and three l learned that I have to be nice to myself. These past few years have been ones of self care and Discovery. I absolutely fel in love with yoga and it is one of the best gifts I have given myself, along with veganism 😌 Lavinia, the teacher at unfold your mat is one of the softest calmest persons you'll ever meet. You feel kindness and just this positive energy coming from her. She makes these amazing props for yoga practice (handmade). I purchased the eye pillow that has been a great addition to my daily life. I Love it. I never knew I'd enjoy it this much. I put on my ear buds and listen to meditation music laying on my yoga mat after doing some stretching and I stay there for 15-20 minutes totally decoupled. I absolutely love the pillow. If you're living in Gothenburg, or just passing by, give it a try. The energy is great!

    Lavinia is such an amazing yoga teacher!! I was happy enough to meet this studio, which by the way, is very cozy, clean and well equiped! Lavinia has a lot of experience which she acquired from her trainings in India and many years of practice. I recommend it 100%!!

    Could not recommend more this yoga centre!! Lessons are taught in English, although the teacher is a true polyglot, which doesn't hurt! Lavinia is a great yoga teacher, creative, caring and very good at reading the mood of the day! Her yoga classes vary from relaxed/restorative to energetic/power yoga. This approach makes it so every time you get on the mat you get a unique experience! Try it and you won't be disappointed :)

    First of all, thank you so much for the wonderful classes, Lavi, it has been a pleasure learning from you. 😊We were recommended Lavi's yoga studio by some friends who had been learning from her and I must say, we were skeptical at first since we had never participated in an online training/yoga class before but Lavi made us feel so warm and welcome from day 1. She is always very mindful of each and everyone's injuries and physical conditions and keeps reminding us the importance of taking things slow and calm in yoga. Her classes are always a very nice balance of relaxing and challenging poses. At the end of a work day, it is very calming to hear Lavi's voice guide us through each pose. Thank you once again Lavi for organizing such effective classes, both in studio and on zoom. 😄

    My first time doing yoga was 2018 in Lavi‘s apartment, I was so fascinated of Lavinia, the yoga teacher at 'unfold your mat' and her energy. 🧘🏻‍♀️🕯 Two and a half years later (2020) I started joining the online classes (because of the pandemic) from germany and doing yoga regularly (which was the best decision of my live!) My health improved, my whole body is more stable and also my mental state, yoga is so much more and it‘s not about the craziest shape or being perfect, it‘s on the mat but also in your head. 🦋 Lavinia has a heartwarming character and you can really feel her passion for yoga during class and when you talk to her. You will notice her special aura. Besides her lovely character, she is also the best yoga teacher of the universe! 🪐✨ She will always help you and keep making your yoga experience the best for you even if you have pain or injuries because everyBODY can do yoga at UNFOLD YOUR MAT and you can be there exactly who you are with the other friendly yogis! It‘s a great vibe with all together. So unfold your mat with Lavinia and start your personal yoga journey! 💫 I appreciate so much that our paths crossed and hope we will have a long yoga journey together! You should give it a try and do yoga in gothenburg or online! P.S. Lavi makes selfmade yoga props (bolsters, eye pillows) which are so beautiful and made with love! 🪡 🧵 Multumesc | Tack så mycket | Thank you so much | Vielen Dank | Merci beaucoup

    I strongly recommend Lavinia's classes! I am a yoga beginner and I have learn so much in only a few months! The teacher is passionate and committed: she adjusts each class/each pose to the level of everyone, clearly explaining each pose and challenging ourselves enough to make us feeling accomplished at the end of each class.

    Calm and pleasant place for great Yoga. Lavinia is a really good yoga teacher and guides with sharp precision. If you do as she says, your vinyasa will be incredibly hard and rewarding. She teaches nuances in common exercises in a way that is unique. I really recommend you to go.

    This is one of the best small studios in Gothenburg (I've tried a lot of them). Lavinia personolizes the practice to your level while at the same time pushing you beyong your comfort zone just the right amount. She is very knowledgeble, not only in technique but also in yoga philosophy. But above all she has the yoga mindset, which I personally find very important in a yoga teacher.

    Lavinia (the yoga instructor) offers great classes in English!!! it is a good way to meet new people if you just arrive to Gothenburg and also for practicing Yoga in a fulfilling way.

    I have tried yoga in different gyms around Gothenburg, but I always come back to Lavinia (even though I live on other side of the city). It is worth the distance. I also like her individual approach and that she can follow my development. This is something that is much harder to achieve when you go to an anonymous gym. I recommend, Lavinia knows what she does! 😊

    I recommend this yoga studio in Gothenburg. Lavinia is a very good teacher; she is patient and gentle toward her students, as well as passionate about the the yoga practice!

    Lovinia is a very kind an accomodating teacher. I have tried both the ashtanga and hatha classes and really liked both of them. The groups are small and you get plenty of guidance without being put under any pressure. The studio is really cosy and close to the woods around Delsjön. I cannot wait till it's warm enough to take a walk there after a class. The clipcard pop-in system is great if you need flexibility in your schedule as well as body

    Lavinia’s yoga classes are highly recommended by me. She creates a very motivating but relaxed cozy atmosphere and with smaller groups in nice surroundings

    Unfold Your Mat is a lovely place and Lavinia has created a very welcoming atmosphere. I can definitaly recommend her yoga classes! I am a beginner at yoga and feel very comfortable at her classes where I can develop at my own pace

    I started practicing with Lavinia at Unfold Your Mat in the spring of 2019 and have been with her for almost 2 years now! I was a beginner and got interested in Ashtanga right away. It’s challenging in all the best ways. Lavinia instructs in a way to help build focus, strength, flexibility, confidence and curiosity in a space that is warm and welcoming of all people, regardless of background or body type. Hiiiighly recommend!!

    The best that could have happened to me! Thanks to the online offer, I can take part in the courses from Germany. That makes the corona pandemic much more bearable! Lavinia knows what she's doing and, despite the distance, manages to send the quiet atmosphere of the studio through the internet. She creates a perfect balance between relaxation and powerful flows. She pays attention to the needs of the participants and corrects them only as much as needed, which I appreciate. Thank you, dear Lavinia, for a little light in these dreary days!

    Lavinia is such a wonderful teacher and human. I have grown so much in my practice since I started training in her studio. Small groups, fun challenges, and a humble growth focus on the practice. Strongly recommend to anyone wanting to start a new chapter in their yoga journey!

    This is the warmest, most welcoming yoga studio that I have ever been a part of and I love coming to practice yoga with Lavinia. She is strong and passionate and that comes through so much in her classes. She pushes her students and gets the most out of them, whilst creating a lovely community of like-minded yogis all living in Gothenburg :) 100% would recommend!! x

    I had the pleasure to attend the beginner’s yoga class led by Lavinia. It’s been an amazing experience! The studio is located in a tranquil area of town, and it has a very calm, beautifully designed interior. Lavinia is passionate, caring and accommodating and gives you a healthy amount of push to challenge yourself. She is very knowledgeable not only on teaching yoga but also on holistic wellness subjects. She also has handmade props which are amazing 😊 100% recommend!

    I go to yoga at the Unfold Your Mat studio. When I moved to Sweden, I really missed my previous yoga studio, but I got a gift card for a yoga class for Christmas. Unfold Your Mat is an intimate, homely mat studio next to a forest trail, where training takes place in small groups. Here they know you by name, they know what your favorite styles are and they communicate in several different languages. For foreigners living in Gothenburg, this is such a hugely important element - to be involved regardless of language skills!

    I had tried several different yoga studios in Gothenburg before finding Unfold your mat, and am very happy to have finally found this place. I really enjoy Lavinia’s style of teaching as well as the smaller groups. Classes are always fun and challenging, with personalized instructions and modifications for beginners as well as more experienced yogis. Lavinia is also super sweet and a great teacher!
