Central Yoga School has added some new specialist classes to our 2025 timetable. This post is a joint contribution of the teachers of each class (with a perky introduction from Jackie!) to clarify why these sessions are offered, and what to expect.

This is the first of a three part presentation on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali that James gave at an Iyengar Yoga National Convention held at Maroochydore in February 2023. In this part the importance of the Yoga Sutras is explained, as well as their relevance to Iyengar yoga practitioners.

We may begin attending Iyengar yoga classes because of their physical benefits, but the reason so many of us stay is that there is an inkling that some other sort of magic is at play. What is that magic? What is it that makes Iyengar yoga so rich, profound and transformative?
