The Concept

Yoga Flame is a spirit of being. Being with oneself. Being with everyone.

Yoga Flame began as a passion to bring a unique blend of yoga styles, inspiring teachers, and meaningful experiences to Switzerland. Since opening our first studio in Lausanne in 2017, the concept has grown into a collaborative journey — expanding to Geneva, Bern, and new ways of experiencing movement and wellbeing.

At its core, Yoga Flame is an experience of coexistence — a place where different styles, teachers, and people come together like a beautiful dance of our Humanity. A home where teachers can share their passion, students can explore body and mind practices, and everyone is welcome, wherever they are on their journey of Life. Inspired by the Colibri — the hummingbird — we believe that small actions, shared collectively, can create meaningful change. A symbol of generosity, resilience, perseverance, agility, and joy.

Ignite Your Journey.

Through movement, inspiring teachers, thoughtful experiences, and genuine human connection, we invite each person to explore, evolve, and create their own path toward a more balanced life.

Yoga Flame began as a passion to bring a unique blend of yoga styles and premium experiences to Switzerland. Inspired by a modern approach to heated yoga and community-driven practice discovered through international travels, the first studio opened in Lausanne in 2017. Since then, the concept has grown into a collaborative project, expanding to Geneva in 2019 and continuing to evolve with new spaces and formats.

At its core, Yoga Flame is an experiment and experience of coexistence. We believe that different styles, teachers, and people can come together like a beautiful dance of our Humanity. Whether physical or virtual, Yoga Flame is everyone’s home — a place where teachers can share their passion, students can explore body and mind practices, and everyone is welcome, wherever they are on their journey of Life.

The spirit behind Yoga Flame is inspired by the Colibri — the hummingbird, a symbol of generosity, resilience, perseverance, agility, and joy. Like the hummingbird carrying drops of water to help extinguish a forest fire, we believe that small actions, shared collectively, can create meaningful change.

Expansion

IGNITE by Yoga Flame

Premium movement. Intimate experience. Community at the center.

IGNITE was born as a natural extension of Yoga Flame — expanding our approach to movement through a boutique Reformer experience that complements yoga with strength, control, mobility, and precision. Designed with only eight reformers, the studio offers personal attention, thoughtful programming, and a deeper teacher-student connection.

Developed in collaboration with Diana, one of our long-standing Lausanne teachers, the project brings together her expertise in architecture, yoga, and Pilates — shaping the studio design, class concepts, and overall experience.

Yoga Flame Bern

Yoga Flame expands to Switzerland’s capital with its first franchise studio — bringing our philosophy of movement, wellbeing, and community to a new city.

This new chapter is brought to life by Isa, Ayse, Andrea, and Stefan — four passionate practitioners with diverse backgrounds in leadership, healthcare, sport, and personal development. United by a shared vision, they are creating a space where people can reconnect, grow, and find balance.
