As the temperatures are starting gradually to climb, practicing yoga in an air-conditioned room isn’t always an option because let’s face it: yoga under the sun is so much more fun. Apparently it is not as easy to find really good outdoor yoga spots in Berlin as you would think, but I found my top 5 yoga-under-the-sun in Berlin.
Yoga at Hotel Zoo Berlin
Every Wednesday at 8:00 Tala and Aleks gives Open Sky Yoga classes on the rooftop of Hotel Zoo Berlin, last time we were only two people, so it is a real hidden gem, yet! Looking into the sky while holding a pose and breathing mindful while listening to the sound of wind: 60 min of Vinyasa Yoga will give you the perfect start in the day. And afterwards you can grab a croissant at Grace Restaurant (breakfast Mon–Fr 7:00–10:30, 36 Euro)
Kurfürstendamm 25
10719 Berlin (Charlottenburg)
12 Euro (mats are included)
Station: U2, U9, S3, S5, S7, S9 Zoologischer Garten
Yoga at Badeschiff
Every Tuesday and Thursday at 9 am you can start the day with Yoga at Badeschiff. Afterwards you can take a dip in a swimming pool that floats in the river, or grab a drink at the beach bar. They only have ten mats, so if you are running late, bring your own mat - just in case. The yoga class costs 7,50 Euro and the entrance for Badeschiff 5,50/3,00 Euro.

Sunday Yoga in the Hasenheide
Sometimes my beloved yoga teacher Victoria gives Open Sky Yoga classes in the park Hasenheide - follow @swanmountainyoga on Instagram to stay tuned. The lesson starts at 11:00 am on Sunday. Enter in through the first entrance coming from Hermannplatz (opposite of the cafe Macha-Macha) and follow the arrows. Expect a badass class and lots of humor. Bring your own mat and pay by donation.

Yoga at Hotel de Rome
Every Sunday from July until the end of August from 9 am until 10 am you can roll out your mat on the rooftop terrace of Hotel de Rome. At this beautiful yoga
session by Spirit Yoga you can catch some sun, get some stretching done in the wind and enjoy a fantastic view over the German capital. The class ends with the ringing of nearby
church bells.
