  • I have been teaching Iyengar Yoga for 40 years. During that time I have visited the Iyengar Yoga Institute in Pune on several occasions, the most recent being in 2019. When possible I attended classes with BKS Iyengar in London and Paris and with Geeta Iyengar in the UK and the US.
    I qualified as a Senior Iyengar Yoga Teacher in 2000 and I have given most of my working life to studying and teaching both in the UK and abroad.
    I run a yoga studio in High Wycombe, Bucks.
    During the Covid pandemic please visit my website to find details of which classes are running. (On-line options are available.)

Monthly pranayama class

Teacher's Name: Sheila Haswell

Day of the week: Monday

Time: 20:00

Duration: 1 hour 15 mins

Description: This class is aimed at those who have at least two years of regular Iyengar yoga practice. It will include some restorative and preparatory poses but the aim is to teach the breathing techniques of pranayama. Pranayama is often translated as ‘prolongation of the breath and its restraint’ so we will be learning to watch, observe and control the breath. Disciplined breathing helps the mind to concentrate, and enables robust health. Normally the second Monday in each month.

Remedial Yoga class

Teacher's Name: Sheila Haswell

Day of the week: Thursday

Time: 16:45

Duration: up to 1 hour 45 mins

Description: These classes are aimed at those who already practice yoga and have a debilitating physical condition which means they are not best served in a regular class. Typical conditions are hip, knee, or shoulder problems, and back-ache, but other health issues may also be considered. To join the remedial class you will first have a one-to-one consultation with Sheila Haswell. During this session Sheila will put together a sequence of yoga postures specifically designed to benefit your condition. Subsequently you will work alongside other students in the remedial class but you will be working on the program devised for you. Other qualified teachers will be on hand to help you and others in the class as and when required. The idea of these classes is that you learn to work with your condition in order that when practising yoga you do not exacerbate the problem, and so that you can return to regular classes when your condition is manageable. Depending on your situation you may be able to attend regular classes alongside these remedial sessions. Contact Sheila before coming to a remedial class.
