Welcome to ÁGORA…
Ágora Yoga Lisboa was born of a common dream and aims to become a collective one.
The dream to create a different space, thought as a Yoga and Meditation studio that could allow for social and cultural exchange. Our wish is to create a space where practices for the body, the mind and the heart can merge. Where physical and meditative experiences can meet creative explorations. A place where people can gather and get to know each other in a bubble of simplicity, loving kindness and acceptance. Where healing can happen and self-transformation can unfold. Where thoughts, ideas and a community can take roots.
Our Yoga and Meditation Studio is located in the heart of Lisbon at Rua Rafael de Andrade 23, near Campo Santana and the metro station Intendente. Second Floor!
We developed an Ashtanga Mysore program, and teach other forms of Yoga and Meditation classes, special workshops, community events, we invite international guest teachers, and we organize retreats, in Portugal and abroad.
We also host trainings and yoga workshops given by local teachers, from different schools of Yoga, Meditation, Healing Arts, Massage…
Maximilien Vergnaud is an Osteopath who has his office at Agora, you can book treatments with him on his website HERE.
At Agora, we also have a “Therapy Room” where therapists (massage therapist, osteopathy, acupuncture, etc) can give treatments, massage. You can ask us if you are interested to get an appointment, or if you wish to rent the space.
AGORA…
is Greek for « Open space assembly »
Nearly every city of ancient Greece had an agora when the classical period of Greek civilization began to flourish. Usually located near the center of town, the agora was easily accessible to every citizen. It was the heart of the city – where ordinary citizens bought and sold goods, politics were discussed and ideas were passed among great minds like Socrates, Aristotle and Plato. Some of the world’s most important ideas were born and perfected within the confines of the Athenian agora including, most importantly, the concept of democracy.
AGORA also means Now in Portuguese
&
AGHORA…
in Sanskrit, is derived from the root word ghora
which means « darkness » and « fear ». A- ghora stands for the opposite, « illumination », « peace », « calmness ». Darkness represents ignorance, whereas knowledge brings forth light. The path of Aghora, which is also a school of Tantra, aims to eliminate the veil of ignorance.
