People keen to stick to a morning routine can now visit YOTEL Glasgow, which is offering free yoga and journaling classes this autumn. And it's not just for hotel guests, with everyone welcome.

Partnering with yoga guru Jess Mackenzie, the hotel is hosting the YO-ga sessions at its rooftop venue VEGA with panoramic, sunrise views of Glasgow. And what better way to start your day?

As the seasons change, guests will be encouraged to take time for themselves and reset for autumn with a series of free classes. The tranquil one-hour sessions are suitable for all abilities and will run every Tuesday at 7.30am between September 20 until October 11.

Taking place at YOTEL Glasgow’s rooftop venue VEGA, guests will be greeted with a floor-to-ceiling panoramic window view across Glasgow as the sun rises in the city. Yoga teacher Jess, who has taught some of the UK's top athletes including Olympians for Team GB, will lead the class in the sunrise stretching sessions, before rounding off with a mini journalling lesson, aiming to show guests the best way to implement mindfulness and gratitude into their daily routine.

The perfect way to reset, refocus and re-energise for the final few months of 2022, YOTEL Glasgow’s rooftop yoga classes are open to all, with 18 free spots available every week, each focusing on a new wellbeing theme.

  • 7.30am Tuesday September 20 - Yoga and Journalling - Let Go to Grow
  • 7.30am Tuesday September 27 - Yoga and Journalling - The Key to Happiness
  • 7.30am Tuesday October 4 - Yoga and Journalling - Embrace Change
  • 7.30am Tuesday October 11 - Yoga and Journalling - Self Reflection

Speaking about the unique and highly-anticipated experience, Jess Mackenzie said: “I can’t wait to begin our series of sunrise yoga and journalling sessions at VEGA this autumn. These wholesome, beginner-friendly yoga classes will help you prioritise your own health and happiness through movement, mindfulness and special gratitude journalling prompts."

“I've found that creating new rituals is a great way to look after our energy levels, especially as we start to ease into autumn and prepare for the fast approaching busy festive season!

"My classes are all about self-love, positivity and personal-growth. Growth happens when we try something new, so if you've never tried yoga or journalling, this is the perfect opportunity to put yourself first! Go ahead, book in! I'll be there to ensure you leave feeling uplifted and ready for a day full of possibility.”

Yoga mats and Journalling stationery will be provided, plus VEGA also serves breakfast until 10am on weekdays for YOTEL Glasgow guests.
