Iyengar Yoga In Cygnet

Cygnet Yoga is an Iyengar Yoga Studio offering Beginners to Level 2 classes, Over 50's and Pranayama classes. Differing levels allow the student to work within their own degree of experience. Beginners courses assume little to no prior knowledge and provide a base from which to continue your yoga practice.

All equipment is provided to offer classes to suit all types of bodies.

Iyengar yoga concentrates on correct alignment within the poses to allow the muscles to engage and protect the joints. This is great for protecting existing injuries and conditions, as well as helping to prevent the occurrence of new ones. Poses are held to gradually increase strength as well as flexibility, and allows time for the mind to concentrate on what is happening in each posture.

Each week the sequences will be different, allowing the student to experience a range of different postures and combinations of poses. Iyengar Yoga teachers are required to complete years of rigorous training before sitting for assessment to become a teacher. They are then required to continue professional development with senior teachers each year. Your Iyengar Yoga teacher Juanita Brokas is well trained, and will instruct you throughout the class.

Come try a class to suit your level of experience in the warm environs of a lovely studio. Discover the difference of Iyengar Yoga.

For Beginner Course dates and 5 day Intensives information go to the CygnetYogaStudio FB page.

Juanita taught for 9 years in the beautiful Yarraville Yoga Centre in Melbourne before moving to Tasmania in 2012 to set up Cygnet Yoga Studio. Fellow teachers from YYC Amanda Hood and Heather Kitchen have also spread their wings and set up studios in Newcastle and Maroochydore respectively. Peter Harley continues to teach at YYC as well as run THE place to get your yoga equipment Iyogaprops.
