From May 17 to 23, yoga teacher Dani Reis leads an immersive week of yoga, pranayama, and meditation at Lapinha Spa, Brazil’s first medical spa, set in the Atlantic Forest of Paraná state.
A 23-year partnership built on depth
This marks Dani Reis’s 23rd edition of Yoga Week at Lapinha Spa — a milestone that reflects a long-standing commitment to meaningful wellness. Founder of Gaya Bem-Estar and a practitioner with 21 years of experience, Dani holds certification from the Yoga Alliance (USA) and completed her meditation training at Shree Mahesh Heritage (India).
Her approach goes well beyond physical exercise. The program connects yoga to longevity, stress regulation, and quality of life, guiding participants toward sustainable, long-term health habits.
What the week includes
Over seven days, participants practice yoga adapted to all experience levels, with an emphasis on mobility, breathwork, and mindful presence. The schedule also features pranayama sessions — structured breathing techniques — and group meditation to support focus and inner balance.
All activities take place in harmony with Lapinha’s natural surroundings, blending outdoor sessions with quiet indoor spaces. Meals follow an ovo-lacto vegetarian diet prepared with organic ingredients, many grown on the property itself.
Signature experiences at the spa
Guests also have access to Lapinha’s standout offerings. The Wild Sauna takes place on the shores of the property’s lake, while the Sonorium — the only space of its kind in the Americas — offers deep relaxation through immersive sound experiences, perfectly complementing the yoga immersion.
53 years of pioneering wellness
Founded over five decades ago, Lapinha Spa is celebrated as Brazil’s first medical spa. Its 550-hectare estate is certified as a Private Natural Heritage Reserve (RPPN) and recognized as a Global Sustainable Spa by the World Spa & Wellness Awards. Nestled among Atlantic Forest and Araucaria woodlands near the Devonian Escarpment in Lapa, Paraná, the property offers a rare combination of ecological preservation and integrative health care.
