About Us
Welcome to Soul Peak Studio, the world's northernmost yoga and wellness studio.
We are based in the heart of Longyearbyen, Svalbard, 78 degrees north. Glaciers surround us. Mountains hold the horizon. The sky stretches wider than anywhere you have ever been. And inside this studio, there is a room with twelve mats, a matcha bar, and a door that stays open.
Soul Peak is a portal. A place where yoga, sound healing, and stillness meet the raw, unhurried beauty of the Arctic. We built this space to be held in. To slow down in. To land in. Whether you live here year-round, you are passing through on the journey of a lifetime, or you are joining us from the other side of the world through our online classes, this studio was made for you.
What we offer
We teach yoga rooted in the ancient traditions of Indian wisdom and philosophy. Our classes range from the deep stillness of restorative and yin yoga to the steady rhythm of vinyasa, the grounding depth of hatha, the fire of power flow, and the discipline of Ashtanga. We also offer sound healing and yoga nidra for those who want to go somewhere deeper than movement can take them.
After class, the studio transforms into a wellness lounge. Our matcha bar serves ceremonial-grade matcha, hand whisked to order, alongside herbal teas and traditional tea ceremonies. It is a space to stay, to create, to talk, or to just sit quietly with whatever came up on the mat. The door is always open. The kettle is always on.
AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
With deep respect, Soul Peak Studio acknowledges the origins of yoga in the sacred traditions of India. We bow to the teachers, wisdom keepers, and lineages that have carried this practice through generations. It is our heartfelt intention to honor these roots in all that we share, and to offer yoga with reverence, humility, and care.
Meet Ahyeong and Anoop, the duo behind Soul Peak Studio
Soul Peak Studio is lovingly brought to life by Ahyeong and Anoop—two humans who somehow found each other on this wild planet and decided to build a cozy little yoga world in the Arctic.
Ahyeong is the visionary, yoga teacher, and creative spirit of the studio—a space-holding wizard who somehow makes every room feel safe, soft, and seen. She weaves yogic philosophy, breath, and presence into every practice with deep holistic care. Learn more about Ahyeong here.
Anoop? He’s everything else. Seriously. He’s the behind-the-scenes hero: operations guy, assistant, studio handyman, personal chef, running coach, emotional support human, logistics wizard, and occasional tech savior. He brings the snacks and the sanity—and yes, his dosa is legendary. Once an architect, now an absolutely brilliant chef, Anoop brings grounded precision and warm-hearted nourishment to everything he touches. Want to see more of what he’s up to in the kitchen or on the trails? Check out his website here.
Together, they hold a big dream: to create a space that feels like a hug—rooted in warmth, connection, and care. A place where you can slow down, breathe deeply, reconnect with yourself, and feel held just as you are.
They believe yoga isn’t just something that happens on the mat—it’s in how we show up for one another, share food, rest deeply, and remember who we are.
“Hands down the best class ever. Ahyeong has the most calming voice. I felt like I was floating and could properly relax. Thanks a lot for this mindblowingly beautiful class!”
