Purple Haze Yoga

Yoga is an ancient system of spiritual development which dates back thousands of years, balancing mind, body and spirit. Pupils learn through a carefully graded and systematic programme of asana (posture). Pranayama (breath control) is gradually introduced once students have a firm foundation of yoga practice. Yoga practice both relaxes and energizes the body and mind and brings vitality, flexibility, strength, concentration, self-confidence and mental calm.

Iyengar Yoga is the most widely practiced form of yoga in the world. Its founder B.K.S. Iyengar has dedicated his life's work to yoga and is still practicing and teaching at his Institute in India in his 90's. The focus in Iyengar yoga is very much on achieving the correct alignment of the body in poses, using props such as walls, belts, blocks where necessary. This makes it accessible to all, regardless of age, flexibility or levels of fitness.
