Our why...

A school, community & movement 
 
Through Yoga we aim to help people understand themselves better and build a deeper connection. Barefoot exists as a school, community and a movement.

We share what the Yogic teachings gave us - the self liberating knowledge and tools to trust and navigate our own mind and body. 

 
As a school, we focus on quality over quantity in every respect - offering small group trainings that explore where science meets spirituality. We value real and sustainable connections for both our students and our local community. For every person who books their YTT with us, we donate 5% of every deposit to a local project such as Animal SOS. By studying at Barefoot, you are not only making a difference to your own life, but to local community here in Sri Lanka. 

"BYS has been one of the most impactful, pivotal experiences of my life. so much more than you can dream, read about, or hear about. It exceeded all my expectations"

Our Commitment to Sri Lanka

Our core values & ethos

​

At Barefoot Yoga School, being here means being part of Sri Lanka, not just teaching in it —

​

Yoga is beyond the mat. For us, social responsibility means running a school that values people, community & planet.

​

We're not seasonal, being here is personal. We live locally year round, working with our community and team daily and believe in creating opportunities that last beyond a season. We create secure jobs, respect the land, and contribute positively to the community we call home. 

We give 5% of every deposit recieved to local projects. Environmentally, our school was built with reclaimed materials, no trees were cut, and we run low-waste, composting, and energy-conscious practices daily.
