Yogatree is a partnership between Lydia Holmes and Edgar Stringer, teaching Iyengar Yoga in Chippenham, Corsham and the area. We offer classes at various levels, from complete Beginners to Intermediate Junior.
Iyengar® Yoga is a dynamic form of Hatha Yoga, which strengthens, realigns and balances the whole body. In our classes emphasis is placed on:
- Accurate alignment of posture (asana)
- Progress in flexibility and stability
- Correct use of supports (chair, wall, blankets etc)
- Specific sequences of asanas for optimum benefit
- Clear and methodical instructions
- Individual specific adjustment
- Development of harmonious breathing
- Focused concentration and deep relaxation
We are inspired by the teachings and books of BKS Iyengar , particularly The Tree Of Yoga which traces the natural and holistic stages of human development through Yoga.
Our classes are held in small groups (10-15) at different levels to suit a range of needs. We encourage people of all ages to learn yoga It’s never too late! Please see classes timetable for details.
Both teachers have trained and studied in Yoga continuously since 1992 in India and the UK. We have also studied Ayurveda and the philosophies of India.
We have been awarded the Intermediate level teaching certificate by the Iyengar Yoga Association of the UK and continue to learn and train under the guidance of pupils of BKS Iyengar. |
