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 this style of 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.
So all are welcome at our studio – we look forward to sharing your Yoga journey !
“Yoga allows you to find a new kind of freedom that you may not have known even existed, “
-B.K.S. Iyengar
“Yoga is for everyone. You need not be an expert or at the peak of physical fitness to practise the asana… Yoga helps to integrate the mental and the physical planes, bringing about a sense of inner and outer balance, or what I term alignment. True alignment means that the inner mind reaches every cell and fibre of the body”
-B.K.S. Iyengar
