ahimsa sanctuary was started with a dream of creating a safe space for anyone to come refuel, recharge & recenter.

this journey began in 2021 where we sold nourishing food and drinks under the name ahimsa cafe in a corner unit in the basement of a hospital. the three years we spent there were filled with just about every learning curve you could think of as a new small business, and were some of the most special times we’ve had with the best customers. we look back at those memories fondly.

but alas, when the end of our lease neared, we realised that it was our now-or-never moment to seize the opportunity in taking the biggest step yet toward our dream. this, was when we researched on countless available properties and went for viewing after viewing, when we found a quaint 2-storey shophouse with a porch and a beautiful skylight with natural light pouring in. this would become our new home — 76 neil rd.

here, we get to create the sanctuary we envisioned and have been working towards from the start.

on the first floor, we continue to serve our menu of nourishing food & drinks made with whole foods and organic spices & herbs, locally-sourced where possible. on the second floor, we have our yoga space, lockers, showers, and a lounge area where all are welcome to come move and breathe with us in our thoughtfully carried out yoga classes. our hope is that through offering nutritious goodness and a space to immerse in movement & stillness, all who come through our doors will feel at home in embarking on their wellness journeys.

starting with ahimsa cafe was just the first step so being here now still feels surreal. we have many more goals and dreams for the future, but in this moment, we are truly  filled with gratitude every step of the way.
