Join us for a power session of Iyengar Yoga
Workshop Benfits :
- Individual correction and adjustment by the teacher when necessary
- Precision, alignment and awareness in performing the yoga postures
- A safe, methodical progression of yoga postures
- Attention to detail, with active help
- The use of ‘props’, like straps, blocks, cushions and blankets.
- Hold postures for longer so that your muscles relax and lengthen, while your awareness is raised.
Iyengar Yoga is a form of Hatha Yoga in that it teaches the traditional static postures with accurate breathing and in a meditative style, but it also puts a deeper emphasis on correct alignment of the body. Students leave feeling re-energised, refreshed and very relaxed.

Compared to other forms of yoga you may have experienced, Iyengar yoga is notable for its emphasis on precise body alignment. Although physically it can be challenging the Iyengar method is a therapeutic approach that supports holistic health. Rather than being left to simply ‘copy’ the teacher as best you can, in an Iyengar yoga class your teacher will actively help by explaining and correcting any misalignments.

Yoga Day Testimonials
” I enjoyed part of the workshop. Having adjustments made during the postures made a such a difference, I have never been in a class where I have had this. One thing I will remember is a wonderful sense of peace on the whole day. Following a ‘grrrhhhh’ day yesterday for me, I experienced an ‘aahhhh’ day today. Thank you Suzy I really enjoyed it.”

“I absolutely love these workshops as an opportunity to step out of the everyday and make time for myself. Both times I have attended, I’ve come away feeling revived and refreshed and have really felt the benefit of having spent time with a lovely bunch of people. Thank you for making this happen!
