Who we are
A place where
nothing needs pretending
turcio studio is a special place in Kraków's Kazimierz, a short walk from the Wawel castle.
Here we return to connection: with ourselves, with our bodies and with other people. To simplicity. To our roots.
This place is run by people who practise themselves and go through all of it themselves — what they share here is part of their own lives.
We are for people looking for something real: in the practice, in the relationship and in themselves.
Read our storySmall groups
Feel the difference
Classes take place in small groups of no more than ten people. The teacher sees everyone: comes over, adjusts your alignment and suggests variations that suit your body and the day you are having.
We believe practice doesn't begin with a perfect pose, matching leggings and an expensive mat.
- You don't have to look cool.
- You don't have to be perfectly flexible.
- You don't have to prove anything.
- You don't have to fit in.
- You don't have to film fancy poses for Instagram.
You can come with a good day, a bad day, a tense body, a full head, or simply with the need to pause and be among people.
We have everything you need: mats, blocks, straps, blankets and bolsters. You can come straight from work, from the city, from the other end of your day.
How we work
From the body, through emotions, to presence
We don't start with what lies deepest. We start with what is closest, and let the rest speak up in its own time.
01Body
We start here, because the body is closest. Movement, breath, and tension that finally lets go.
02Emotions
Behind the body, what was hidden speaks up. Here emotions can simply be, instead of waiting beneath the surface.
03Presence
When you stop fighting yourself, what remains is the moment you are actually in.
04Soul
We don't work with it directly. It simply comes closer.
The way back to yourself doesn't run in a straight line. It circles inwards, tighter and tighter.

Our mission
Clearing away
what hides the calm
Calm is already within you. You don't have to earn it. Sometimes it's just covered by clouds — the rush, the tension, the tenth thing to do before six o'clock. Our work is to help you clear them away.
Through experience, not theory.
Our values
Water doesn't fight the stone. It simply flows — and in the end, it is the water that gives the stone its shape.

Where can I do yoga in Kraków's Kazimierz district?
In Kazimierz, at św. Agnieszki 1/27, close to Wawel Castle, you'll find turcio: a soulful, atmospheric yoga and wellbeing studio. We run vinyasa, hatha flow, slow flow & yin and healthy spine yoga classes in small groups, along with meditation, workshops and sound concerts. Bookings go through Fitssey.
Does turcio offer yoga classes for beginners?
Yes, no previous experience is needed for our classes. For people starting from zero or returning after a break, we run Fundamentals of Yoga: six 75-minute sessions in a small group, led by Dominika Karolczyk. On regular classes, the teacher also shows variations for different levels.
How many people are in a class?
Groups are capped at ten people. That lets the teacher see everyone, come over and suggest a variation suited to that person's body and day, rather than just teaching from the front of the room.
How do I book a class at turcio?
Bookings run through Fitssey (app.fitssey.com/turciostudio), where you can see open spots in the schedule. You can also message us on WhatsApp or by email if you'd like help choosing your first class.
How much does a yoga class at turcio cost?
A single class costs 60 PLN. A 4-class pass is 200 PLN and a 6-class pass is 300 PLN. Passes are valid for 30 days from purchase; unused classes do not carry over. For beginners there is also the Foundations course: six 75-minute sessions for 499 PLN. Mats and all props are included.
Do I need any yoga experience to attend?
No. Classes are open to people with no experience at all — you don't need to be flexible, fit, or prove anything. The teacher shows more than one variation of each pose at every class.
What should I bring to my first yoga class?
Comfortable clothes you can move freely in are enough — yoga leggings aren't required. It also helps to bring socks and a jumper for the end of class, when the body cools down during relaxation, plus water if you like having it nearby. Mats, blocks, straps, blankets and bolsters are provided on site, included in the class price.
Can I rent a room at turcio for workshops?
Yes. We rent the studio room to people running their own classes and workshops (up to twelve people) and the treatment room to therapists and practitioners seeing clients one to one. Both rooms are in Kazimierz, in a tenement house on św. Agnieszki. We send details and pricing by email after you get in touch.
Does turcio host private events, like hen parties?
Yes, we run private events on request: hen parties, birthdays, gatherings for family or company teams. These can take place at our studio, at your place, or outdoors — we bring mats and instruments with us. Message us on WhatsApp or by email to arrange the details.
How do I get to turcio in Kazimierz?
The nearest tram stops are Stradom and Wawel, and there is paid street parking nearby. At św. Agnieszki 1 you will find a large gate: dial 27 on the intercom. Walk straight through the courtyard, past the playground, and you will see the staircase entrance on the right. Dial 27 again and come up to the second floor, by lift or stairs. The door will be open.
Does turcio hold sound concerts?
Yes, we regularly run relaxation concerts and sound evenings with crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, gong and saxophone, including with Sławomir Pezda (sLOVEmed). During the concert you lie down on a mat and the sound does the rest. Dates and bookings are on the Fitssey schedule.
