OUR PHILOSOPHY
We host a space where you are welcome and important because your blueprint creates an imprint. At Living Room, a teacher is someone who shares, contributes and creates dialogue. Together we create ripples. Here one can allow the mind to be undressed, dare to not know, be in togetherness and respect ourselves and others. Reflect to understand, to create variety, curiosity and references. Explore, Evolve, Live.
ABOUT THE SPACE
Living Room is a world of magic soulfully put into a 140 sqm ground floor locale in the quirky Palma neighbourhood of Santa Catalina. We have a 60 sqm yoga room, that can be used for anything from theatre rehearsals, music, dance and talks. Further in, there is a Ceramic room with 4 wheels that can hold 8-10 people. Our Workshop Room can hold 10 people and has a kitchen adjoined, equipped with an induction hob, oven, dishwasher etc. On top of this, we also have a proper living room, of course!
TEACHERS
You know that teacher you had in school, the one you talk to your kids about because they were so inspiring and engaging? The one that was loved by all the students for his/her magical dedication to sharing..? We do! And when we look at the team of teachers we have gathered to share here at Living Room, we are extraordinarily proud they are with us.

“I’m a Swedish-German inner beauty student. After some journeying, I returned to my professional roots as a poet, playwright and coach. As such, I strive to help people to develop trust in their actions by doing rather than ‘acting’; to find sources of inspiration and let the dreamwork begin.

Maria Roca Parés
Ceramics
“My way of teaching is based on free expression. I love watching my students touching the clay, feeling the material, feeling nature, and letting them escape the quotidian routine. It is a way to reconnect with your spiritual self through the handwork of clay. It demonstrates how you can reawaken your connection to the earth.
Three words to describe my passion for Ceramics:
Freedom, Strength in Vulnerability, Presence”
Patric Soderblom
Talks
A Naprapath who after many years of specialising in working with dancers and other stage performers really enjoys the process behind that what we as an audience get to see.
Balance is a keyword in the big recipe of life and nature is the best place to go to find it.
Sarah Elfvin
Yoga
“For me, practice is like a profound friendship, it moves and evolves. Just like our practice changes over time, the practice also changes us.
The more we invite practice, the more we trust the process and knowledge. It makes us move with grace; trusting that we are pieces in a bigger universal puzzle. Sarah is a life equilibrist who rarely stays within her comfort zone. Movement and yoga became part of her life early and she studies various styles like Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, Restorative, Meditation, Yoga Nidra and Ayurvedic medicine. She has been an ISHTA Yoga Master for years and holds a 500+ hrs Certificate.
Three words why I love yoga: Recognise, Reverence, Rebel!”
