You'll be hard pushed to find better value than our Easter Retreat, as those in the know know. We're not about making profits from you.
We cover the costs and want you to appreciate our love for Iyengar Yoga as much as we do.

It's Ann Dragon's fifth year bringing this event to life.
And it's not too late to join us at Fair Harvest Permaculture to retreat from the everyday.

We don't need to sell this to you, there's a great group of repeat and new retreat folk already booked in!

We do hope that if you're sitting on the fence, you'll see Noor's lovely review below and jump on board, as this is a special occasion we treasure and reckon you'll love.

Thursday mornings at 6am isn't a class you book into, it's FREE for NPYR practitioners and is a led practice.

Led practice means that we use a sequence of poses to observe ourselves.

This is very different to the techniques of poses 'taught' sequentially. We don't listen to external instructions as we do in general Iyengar based classes.

During led practice, the poses are named, r
timung of the poses are held by the practice leader and the rest is experienced. It's a silent practice.

During a led practice sequence, practitioners don't just do what they feel they follow the sequence being led and study how "I-ness" rises.

Statements like, "I wouldn't do that pose before this one, or I don't want to do that pose" are all opportunities for us to see our desires and fears.

Led practice is a great way to learn how to practice on your own. That is, you don't have to generate a sequence, but you do have to consider what rises within the silence of a practice.

DM if you'd like to join us or just come along if you're currently doing classes at NPYR.

If you'd like to try a beginners or general class, we offer a complimentary class for you to give Iyengar Yoga a try.

It was a pleasure to be in the company of so many passionate lovers of last weekend.

We gathered over two days, volunteering our time and efforts, to listen and learn from each other's experiences of Yoga.

The potential and potency of Iyengar Yoga Australia as a national association lies in its capacity to unite a diverse community of teachers in a common cause.

That is, to uphold the lineage and teaching of .to the best of our current understandings and knowledge base

We are by no means perfect and, in many ways, that's the point of getting together as a community.

To challenge each other's assumptions and preconceived notions of best practice, requires both intellectual rigour and an open heart.

Thank you IYA for facilitating such an extraordinary gathering of like minded souls.

It is always interesting to engage and be a part of something that is much bigger than each of us as individuals.

Thank you also to all teachers who covered classes whilst I was away

Ross Parris , Sandy Curtis, Dan West and Jan Hollingworth I can't do what I do without you 🫶🏼💕🙏🏼

After participating in teacher development at the NZ convention, our principal teacher Ann Dragon has been attending a meeting of senior teachers in Melbourne.

Our timetable of classes will return to normal programming from Wednesday this week, upon her return.

Trainees to Level 4 certified teachers, all had so much to learn from Abhijata’s teacher development session. One of the key messages throughout the convention, which was consolidated today, was the importance of context in all learning. We cannot simply take one idea we have learned and apply it to every situation. There needs to be greater intelligence in our teaching and practice than a simple copy and paste approach.

“Together we can make a better world” her final words to us, reminding us of the importance of unity and collaboration 🪷🙏🏾

Teacher development with Abhijata Iyengar on the final day saw around 80-100 teachers voicing questions and working with each other to gain confidence and clarity in purpose.

It was a very interactive session, with Abhi setting up pairs and groups to practice adjustments on different body types.

We learnt how to lift each other in handstand and headstand. We stabilised the front knee for lateral angle pose whilst learning to open the chest.

Then we sat and listened to each other's teaching concerns, fears and doubts. The energy of openness was refreshing, with Abhi's clarity and depth of understanding bringing confidence and joy to the proceedings.

Many many laughs were had, contacts shared and connections made.

It was a dynamic end to the four day event.

Thank you Abhijata for continuing to light the path your grandfather walked 👣🤲🏼🙏🏼

May we all strive to uphold Iyengar Yoga with lightness in our hearts ✨🕯️✨
