Practicing yoga since 2001, I embraced Iyengar yoga in 2011 after inspiring classes with Kate Hailston. Upon moving to Edinburgh, teachers like Elaine Pidgeon encouraged me to pursue teaching. Started training in 2014, tutored by Helen Graham, earning my Introductory Teaching Certificate in 2016. Qualified to teach Level 1, I find joy in sharing the transformative power of Iyengar yoga.

Started yoga at 17, initially drawn to stretching and relaxation. Discovered Iyengar yoga at EYIC over 25 years ago, where my practice evolved. Regular classes and teachers encourage and challenge me. Achieved Introductory Certificate in 2011. Yoga anchors and energizes me, providing a sense of well-being. Feel privileged and amazed to teach others.

Yoga stimulates, soothes, challenges and delights me. Teaching Yoga offers me the opportunity to share with others my understandings of what I find an extraordinary art and science. I have enjoyed teaching at the Edinburgh Iyengar Yoga Centre since moving to Edinburgh in 1983 and hold the Level 3 qualification.

Started yoga in the late 1980s when I moved to Edinburgh from Rome. The Iyengar Yoga community became my adoptive family, providing the warmth I missed from Italy. Grateful for studying with inspiring teachers, including Guruji, Geeta, and Prashant, I am now a certified Level 3 teacher. The journey continues…

Discovered yoga in India at 19, fell in love with its profound practice. Joined EIYC in 1981, qualified as a teacher in 1989. The center feels like family, a constant presence in life. Visited India for teachings from Iyengars, earned Level 3 teaching certificate in 2005.

I’ve been teaching for almost 20 years. Yoga practice has been a central part of my life for even longer. I trained in Edinburgh and learned more at the centre in Pune, India, about how Iyengar yoga is accessible to all. I love teaching students of all ages, abilities, shapes and sizes.

Studying Iyengar Yoga since 1976 with Bob and Kathy Welham, I began teaching in 1980. Inspired by BKS Iyengar, my transformative visits to the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute fueled my passion. Although I still teach at the Centre, I am now retired as a senior examiner for the IY(UK), where I have witnessed the profound transformations Iyengar Yoga brings.

My Iyengar yoga journey started in New Zealand where I qualified as a teacher then gaining Level 2 in the UK. I’m constantly learning from the classes I attend, from students and from my own practice.

I’m lucky to have practised yoga since the early 80s. In 2011 I qualified as ateacher, progressing to level 3 in 2019. A highlight was my 2018 visit to the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute in Pune, India when I was taught by Geeta & Prashant Iyengar.

I qualified as a yoga teacher in 2007. In 2018 I spent a month studying yoga in Pune, India and also received my Level 2 teaching certificate. My teaching approach is positive and encouraging. It’s a pleasure to share my love of yoga and to see students making progress and feeling better.

I have practiced yoga since the early ‘90s and qualified as a Level 1 teacher in 2020. I love visiting India and have been taught by the Iyengars in Pune and Firooza Ali Razvi in Dehradun. I appreciate the Iyengar emphasis on accessibility and delight in teaching students of all ages and body types.

I have been a yoga practitioner since the 70s and became a teacher in 1987. I travel to India every year to study with the Iyengar family. Yoga makes you more comfortable with yourself – it is a technology that makes our minds positive and confident and able to lead a happy life.

Yoga has been integral to my life since my teens - strengthening me physically and mentally. My go-to medicine, sustaining me through all life’s challenges. My ultimate aim is that your interest is piqued and you feel ready to open the yoga door to the many benefits that lie ahead.

Began yoga in my early twenties in Edinburgh, joining Bob Welham's Iyengar class. Initially a gap-filler from ballet, yoga quickly became more than just physical for me. It grounds and sustains me through life stages. Sharing enthusiasm through teaching since 1981, I hold a Level 3 certificate (formerly Junior Intermediate) since 1998.

Since discovering Iyengar Yoga as a student in Edinburgh I have enjoyed the energy and strength it provides. The focus on alignment, precision, and balance of mind and body continue to inspire me. Now a Level 1 teacher (2020), I regularly benefit from classes and workshops with senior teachers.

Started practicing at Edinburgh Iyengar Yoga Centre at seventeen, drawn to its precision and strong, detailed instructions. Taught by various Iyengar Yoga teachers globally, I appreciate the excellent teaching at the center. A Level 3 teacher since the 1990s, I find great joy in practicing and teaching yoga.
