Search teacher members of Iyengar Yoga (UK)

I have been practicing Iyengar yoga for 25 years. I love sharing this wonderful method with everyone I meet, I particularly value its power to reduce stress and anxiety as well as the aches and pains that we all suffer from generally.

As a movement lover and former gymnast and coach, finding Yoga in my 20s was like coming home! I have been practicing yoga since 1999 and teaching since 2013. I teach all levels, all ages and all bodies including pre and post-pregnancy, injuries and those suffering from disease and anatomical issues. I am also a Teacher Mentor.  I have assisted in weekly medical/therapy classes and in 2021 I taught on the Long Covid Medical study.  I pride myself on giving students individual care and attention and helping them to find a practice suitable to their body.  My love of Iyengar is combined with my love and practice of holistic therapies and movement. To find out more about my classes, book a private session or join a workshop please visit my website. 

Aidan started attending Iyengar yoga classes in London in 1997 and was instantly drawn to it. It helped to give him freedom from a long-standing back problem and he also enjoyed the calming effects on the mind that the practice brings. He completed the Iyengar two-year introductory teacher-training programme in 2006, and currently holds a Level 3 certification. Aidan has been lucky enough to study over long periods with some very experienced teachers in the UK including Glenys Shephard and Sheila Haswell. He has also been fortunate enough to be taught by Geeta Iyengar, Abhijata Iyengar, Gulnaz Dashti, Stephane Lalo and many other inspiring teachers from other countries too. Aidan hopes to share the benefits of yoga with those he teaches. He believes that yoga can help everyone to realise their potential and live more balanced and fulfilled lives. His experience is that the practice of yoga equips us to rise to the challenges of our bodies and the stresses of life, as well as directing us inexorably towards a more connected relationship with our inner selves and the wider world. He has an established Pranayama and meditation practice as well as a fascination with many different aspects of Indian Philosophy. He likes to weave aspects of Yoga philosophy into his classes. Aidan moved to Istanbul in 2009 and has been teaching at various studios there since moving there. He continues his other work as a musician/producer and also as a director of Heliotrope Yoga Holidays.. He currently divides his time between Turkey and the UK.

Aimee Lou Magee is a level 1 teacher, teaching in and around the Poole and Bournemouth area, teaching small groups at her home studio and larger groups around the area. Teaching beginners and intermediate students, all aspects of the level one program.

I live and teach in the market town of Hexham, Northumberland. I started practising yoga when i was pregnant with my first child in 2002 whilst living in London. In 2007, after moving to the north east of England, I was fortunate to find a wonderful and inspiring Iyengar teacher - Alicia Lester - through whom I developed a passion for Iyengar yoga. Alicia encouraged me to start the teacher training programme with Margaret Austin and I gave up practising law to focus on yoga (although I do now lecture in law). I feel very fortunate to have had such inspiring teachers and I continue to attend Margaret's weekly teachers class. I have visited Pune and studied with the Iyengar family and continue to attend weekly zoom classes with RIMYI teachers. I am membership secretary for the North East England Iyengar Yoga Member Group and am a registered mentor for trainee teachers.

Alaric has been practicing Iyengar yoga since 1983 and teaching Iyengar yoga since 1991. He is certificated by the Iyengar Yoga Association (UK) as a Level 3 Iyengar Yoga teacher. He has been taught directly by Guruji, Geetaji and Prashantaji and received his Senior Intermediate III certification under the old qualification system in 2006. Alaric’s teaching is lively, insightful and playful. His long teaching experience enables him to give precise individual adjustments while maintaining good group momentum.

I’m a fully qualified Iyengar yoga teacher based in Bristol. I went to my first Iyengar class when I was in my late 20s & it has been a huge & important part of my life ever since.  I have sought out Iyengar teachers everywhere I have lived or worked & travelled to India for intensive Iyengar courses. I love the integrity of Iyengar yoga & the careful attention it gives to alignment which can be transformative; I love too the humility it encourages in those who practise.  As a student & a teacher of Iyengar yoga I value its accessibility & the way it can be adapted to work for each individual. The potential for apparently small adjustments to have profound effects on the body, mind & emotions of anyone who practises Iyengar yoga, at any level, energises & inspires my teaching. I’m also an actor & theatre practitioner with a working life that is unpredictable & ever-changing.  I treasure the balance, steadiness & space offered by Iyengar yoga as well as the opportunity to always learn more, discover & develop understanding.

Alice is a Level One teacher and has been practising Iyengar yoga since 1997 and teaching since 2017.

I qualified to teach Iyengar Yoga in 2015 and have been practicing yoga since the late 90s. I trained to teach in North London with senior teacher Ros Bell and have practiced in Pune, India, under the tutelage of Geeta Iyengar and other members of the Iyengar family. I have taught in various yoga studios and corporate environments across London and currently teach online, in my home studio in Clapton (East London) and at East of Eden in Walthamstow. I also teach summer retreats at Canel in the South of France. My classes are fun, challenging and accessible, allowing newer and more experienced students to feel the benefits of Iyengar Yoga and discover a deeper practice.

I have been a certified Iyengar yoga teacher since 1989 and have studied with the Iyengar family in Pune four times as well as keeping up with my own practice and classes with Iyengar teachers in London.  I teach an introductory level class on Mondays 7-8.15pm , currently on line and a class for more experienced students on Tuesdays 7-8.30pm in person, in Stoke Newington, London N16.  Please contact me if you are interested in either class.

I qualified in 2021 and have been teaching since then, taking Covid restrictions into account. I started teaching face to face classes in the Autumn of 2023, after returning from travelling over the Spring and Summer 2023.

I began practising Iyengar Yoga in 1987 and qualified as an Iyengar Yoga teacher in 1992. I have taught primarily in the North East of England and, following my relocation, more recently in Cornwall. I have taught Iyengar Yoga exclusively throughout my teaching life and remain deeply committed to its principles. I have been fortunate to study with senior teachers and feel grateful for the guidance and mentorship I have received. My teaching is shaped by long-term personal practice and experience, and I enjoy sharing what I have learned in a clear, supportive and considered way.
