Summer Season Offer: Yoga Mornings at the Museum
Following the great response in previous years, the Latvian National Museum of Art, in collaboration with the yoga studio “Jivamukti Yoga Riga”, is inviting visitors for the third summer in a row to take part in Yoga Mornings at the Museum. Held in the museum’s main building (1 Jaņa Rozentāla Square, Riga), these sessions offer an opportunity every Thursday to begin the day in a calm and harmonious way, surrounded by the inspiration of art.
The opening session of the new season will take place on Friday, 19 June 2026, in anticipation of the International Day of Yoga. Proceeds from the opening event will be donated to the LNMM social programme “Nāc muzejā!”, which promotes the development of an inclusive society, mutual understanding, and cooperation. Participation fee for the opening session: EUR 15.
Throughout the summer, yoga classes will be held once a week on Thursday mornings, before the museum opens to visitors. In the quiet atmosphere of the closed museum galleries, participants will have the opportunity to strengthen their bodies, calm their minds, and consciously nurture their well-being. After each session, participants will be able to visit the museum’s permanent exhibition.
Our goal is to reach a broader audience and offer an inspiring opportunity to dedicate time to oneself. The museum environment helps visitors step away from the rush of everyday life, reduce stress, and reconnect with their bodies in a creative and peaceful atmosphere, which encourages being present in the here and now,”
emphasises Vineta Klotiņa, Head of the yoga studio.
The sessions will be led by certified instructors from Jivamukti Yoga Riga. No previous yoga experience or special level of physical fitness is required. Each session will begin with a short introduction and attunement practice, followed by moderate-intensity exercises, and conclude with relaxation and meditation. Participants are encouraged to bring a bottle of water and, if they wish, their own yoga mat.
Thanks to the support of Abava and Kalve Coffee, participants will have the opportunity to enjoy complimentary refreshments on special occasions.
