Honouring our Lineage


Remembering B.K.S. Iyengar (Dec 14th) and Geeta S. Iyengar (Dec 7th), on their birth anniversaries.
All members welcome.

Join us to celebrate through:

  • Story sharing
  • Film clip of Guruji
  • Practice preparation for a pranayama class with Geetaji

For story sharing, we invite those of you who have studied with Guruji and Geetaji to think about something that sparked your own understanding about the subject of yoga, or revealed to you something unique about Guruji or Geetaji.

Looking forward to gathering in community and seeing you!

Whether you are considering preparing for a Level 2 assessment or not, exploring how to convey intermediate yoga concepts to students can refine your practice and evolve your teaching skills. Our personal practice is a ripe field of discovery, to develop our own sensitivity in asana and pranayama.  As teachers, how do we convey what we learn in our practice to our students? How do we express our practice-experience to benefit the learning of others? This session is appropriate for apprentices and all levels of teachers.

On registration you will be sent a link to a survey.  Please complete the survey as soon as possible as it will shape our session
