L'esperienza

This is a place for presence, not performance.
Live Brazil from the inside: yoga practice, community life, meals, conversations, and Sunday street market — 1h from São Paulo. Refúgio Urbano is calm, organized and intentional. We welcome volunteers with strong exchange value: teach yoga/body practices, offer a workshop, and share your culture. Light hours, high standards, deep experience.
Também falamos português e espanhol no dia a dia.

Dettagli del programma

You’ll be guided, supported, and clearly oriented — we value responsibility, not pressure.

You’ll join Refúgio Urbano, a small yoga community near São Paulo (Ribeirão Pires).
This is not a “busy hostel job”. It’s a life exchange: practice, culture, and real presence.

2026 priority (in this order):
Teach regular classes (and substitute the host when needed)
Offer 1–2 workshops during your stay
Host a light cultural sharing: “My country in 45 minutes”

You’ll have access to all classes (like our scholarship students) + a private room.
Light hours. Real responsibility. Real community.

Attività e turni

We care more about presence, consistency, and communication than perfection.

Time commitment: 15h/week (3h/day, 5 days) + 2 days off.

Teaching (Priority #1)
Lead regular yoga/body practice classes
Substitute the host when needed
Before confirmation: share a link/video of you teaching + your background.

Workshops (Priority #2)
Offer 1–2 workshops (dance, mobility, breathwork, meditation, cooking, music, etc.)
Before arrival: send title + duration + learning outcome + best day/time.

Studio support (simple but serious)
When scheduled for support:
Arrive 20 minutes early (open, water, fresh air, welcome people)
After class: organize + vacuum when needed

Content (we need real life)
Per class you attend: 3–5 good photos OR a 20–30s video.

Home rhythm (light)
Keep room/bathroom/kitchen clean + twice a week a light common-area task (e.g., vacuum).

Schedule note: most activities happen in the evenings.
We also connect in the mornings sometimes (breakfast) + Sunday street market.
