Why Iyengar Yoga?
We don’t just show you yoga we TEACH each person. We teach you how to practice wisely and safely. We teach you how to relieve back, hip, shoulder and other joint pain.
Collectively we’ve been teaching seniors, complete beginners and advanced practitioners for well over 60 years. We know how to help you improve wobbly balance and strengthen weak limbs and stiff joints. At whatever stage of life or practice you are at we know how to guide your yoga journey.
Iyengar yoga is as much for the mind as it is for the body. Improve sleep, relieve stress and reclaim wellbeing.
Join us! It’s never too late to improve body and mind function.
Through this website you can learn about Iyengar Yoga and meet our instructors.
Iyengar Yoga teachers train for over 1000 hours before certification.

Shawmail can be a challenge - particularly with big distribution lists. Change your spam handling option in your Shaw Webmail account, for which you will need your username (likely your shaw e-mail address) and your password. Once in, click on Preferences then in the left column click on Spam and then set “When receiving spam...” to “label message as SPAM and keep in inbox” or “label as SPAM and send to JUNK” in which case you will have to continue to keep an eye on your Junk mail folder. Remember to "save" the preferences before logging out.
