Without elegance of the heart, there is no elegance.

I’m Kes Cardoso, founder of Cosy Yoga in Villefranche-sur-Mer, where I live with my two cats: Jasper & Ruby. I’ve been teaching yoga since 2015, upon professionally training in France and internationally across Hatha, Yin, Restorative, functional movement, somatics, and sound therapy.

Nestled in the heart of the old town of Villefranche-sur-Mer, Cosy Yoga Studio offers an intimate and calming space built inside a stone grotto — naturally cool in summer, confortable during winter... Always quiet, and deeply grounding. Classes are intentionally small to ensure individual guidance, safety, and comfort for every student.

My teaching style blends Hatha Yoga (dynamic yet mindful, focused on balance and strength) and Yin Yoga (gentle, slow, and restorative) — ideal for improving flexibility, releasing tension, and cultivating a sense of calm focus. Classes are taught in English and French, making the studio welcoming for both locals and expats.

Cosy Yoga is inclusive, neurodivergent and LGBTQ+friendly, fundamentally designed for those who prefer an authentic, sensory-friendly experience: soft lighting, minimal noise, and a relaxed pace that encourages real presence rather than performance. You are welcome to come as you are to a peaceful, gentle, mindful practice by the Mediterranean sea.
