Boutique Hotel Birgu

Nestled in a tranquil corner of Birgu, Locanda La Gelsomina is an oasis within which to escape the hectic rhythm of the busy world outside.

Offering a quiet space where you may gently nourish your body, mind and soul, Locanda La Gelsomina offers unique yoga, sound immersions and meditation experiences guided by Szilvia Gardian.

Each private session may be customised in accordance to personal preferences and suited to the experience of each guest. Focus is placed on breathwork that will release any blockage of energy, and yoga sequences that will re-energize. Guided meditations and sound will turn your focus inwards and encourage a calm mind and revitalised spirit.

Our recently completed rooftop yoga deck offers unparalleled views across The Grand Harbour, providing a magnificent backdrop to your wellness experience beneath the sun and the stars above.

Intimate and personal yoga retreats for 4 to 8 people may also be arranged upon request.

Immerse yourself in a space steeped in history and charm as you regenerate your body and uplift your soul.

ABOUT SZILVIA GARDIAN

Szilvia Gardian has over 12 years of experience in teaching various forms of movement. She is a Yoga Alliance UK certified Yoga teacher, a qualified Sound therapist and also holds a STOTT Pilates instructor certification. After living in the UK for 5 years she has recently moved to Malta.

Szilvia teaches yoga with a breath focused, mindful and soulful approach. In her classes the movement practice is varied in intensity: gentle, restorative, softly flowing movements appear alongside poses that more intensively engage strength and flexibility. She stays true to what made her fall in love with yoga, a practice that is nurturing not only for the body, but also for the mind.

Szilvia combined her expertise of yoga and her passion for meditation with Tibetan singing bowls to create the Yoga & Sound method. She launched this program during the Om Yoga Show Manchester in May 2014.  Soon after that, Szilvia started teaching specialised singing bowl courses for yoga teachers UK-wide.
