Asha Iyengar Yoga


About:

Asha Iyengar Yoga Centre is based in the Riverside Shopping Centre in Bryanston, Sandton. 

The method of Yoga that is taught is Iyengar Yoga, as developed by Guruji, B.K.S. Iyengar, the world-renowned Yoga teacher, who is credited with spreading the practice and study of classical Indian Yoga throughout the world.

B.K.S. Iyengar’s method is firmly based in the ancient Indian tradition of Yoga as defined in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The heart of Iyengar Yoga is situated in Pune, India, where the Iyengar lineage is carried forth by Mr Iyengar’s family, at the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute (RIMYI).

Michele Higginson is Asha Yoga Centre’s primary teacher and has studied several times in Pune.  All teachers at Asha Yoga Centre are qualified and certified Iyengar Yoga teachers. 

Everyone is welcome to attend classes, as Yoga makes absolutely no distinctions – Iyengar Yoga is for everyone.
