Getting started with Iyengar Yoga

 

Beginners are always welcome at Yoga On Tay!

 

You are very welcome to join any Block or Class advertised as Beginners, Level 1 or General.  These classes cover a variety of poses: standing, sitting, twisting, sometimes flowing and fast moving and at other times we practice in a more restorative way, but always sequenced well as this is a unique feature of Iyengar yoga. Props may be used to help overcome difficulty with a pose or to make it more challenging and therefore develop our intelligence of the pose.

​

Our Foundation Course can also be a great starting point for complete beginners - we run these usually a couple of times a year. 

​

Please note Level  2 classes require 2 years experience + 5 min shoulder stand and Level 3 classes require 4 years experience + 5 min head balance so are not suitable for beginners.

​

It is helpful if you get in touch so that we can advise which class might be best to start with (a quieter class can be easier to slot into, for example).

 

Note that you will be asked to register as a member before you first book, and you will need to complete a health declaration form before coming to your first class.
