All this week we celebrate National Iyengar Yoga Day (Most classes on Saturday 17th January). We celebrate the teachers who guide us, the students who inquire, and the lineage that continues to evolve dedicated to sharing the depth, precision and transformative potential of Iyengar Yoga with our wider community.

Iyengar Yoga teaches us to move with attention, refine through alignment and steady the mind through action. Whether you’re stepping onto the mat for the first time or have been practising for decades, the invitation is the same: practice with sincerity, curiosity and care.

Find a class, try a taster session, or reconnect with your practice this week and experience how Iyengar Yoga is accessible to everyone.
