Welcome to Lewes Yoga
classes with Sallie, Orit, Ali and Zoë
We are Iyengar Yoga practitioners and teachers who all teach in Lewes. This site will help to find you a yoga class. It will provide you with information about local Lewes yoga teachers and their Lewes yoga classes.
We all hold teaching certificates from RIMYI, awarded by the Iyengar Yoga Association (UK). This guarantees that we have done at least three years regular practice, two years intensive training, and have passed national assessments. We continue studying and training to maintain our certification. It is our duty and delight to be able to use the registered trade mark of BKS Iyengar. To learn more about Iyengar yoga certification please follow the link to the Iyengar Yoga Association. For details of our Sussex institute follow this link Institute for Iyengar Yoga in Sussex.
BKS Iyengar is a genius at reading, treating and transforming the human form and psyche. This genius extends to his ability to make his teaching transmissible by ordinary teachers. Our job is to remain true to our training, so we can pass on his system for culturing the body, for restraining the mind and making both a vehicle for self-discovery. This mighty stream inevitably gets diluted many-fold by our more workaday teaching but it should not be muddied or merged with other currents. This is the purpose of the strict rules of the IYA.
Our daytime and evening classes run through the week, in a variety of Lewes venues and for different levels, from total beginner to experienced practitioners and teachers.
Introductory teachers may teach only students in normal health. This is to ensure the well-being of students and to comply with the IYA rules. These teachers may continue to teach students who become pregnant, but may not take new students who are already pregnant. Intermediate teachers are qualified to teach pregnancy and therapy classes.
