About Maitri Studio
We are an open, inclusive yoga & wellbeing studio based in Belfast - we look forward to meeting you!
New here? We're a bit different from most studios: all the teachers & therapists work independently so you book directly with them, except for some Iyengar yoga classes and workshops.
