Paul Walker

16th September 2016

We are very sad to announce that Paul Walker died yesterday. Paul was diagnosed with serious cancer a while ago but his death will still be a shock to many, and a very great loss.

Paul was an inspiring and generous person and played a significant role in the development of Iyengar yoga in the UK; he contributed to the process of creating our Association many years ago and, before that, helped run the Light on Yoga Organisation conventions for a number of years. He was key in helping to organise Geetaji’s first visit to the UK when she taught at Crystal Palace. As well as practising and teaching yoga himself, Paul is probably best known to most of us as the founder of Yogamatters. We send our love to his family and friends.
