GoogleI fell into Iyengar yoga quite by accident & I'm so glad I did. I love seeing my continual improvement in a safe, inclusive & nurturing atmosphere. Supportive & caring teachers .. I can't say enough good things about them all. I can't imagine finding a better environment to learn & practice yoga. The beginners course is great value .. a great introduction to yoga.
After many failed attempts at yoga over the years, I was committed to this time being different. And whilst I showed up with a different mindset, I had underestimated how important the studio is in fostering a connection to practice and a love of yoga. The team at Newcastle Yoga have certainly done this via the environment and the qualities of the teachers – creating a low ego, high support community. Thank you and I look forward to continuing my practice with you all – hopefully long into the future.
Great local yoga studio with classes ranging from gentle beginners through to the very experienced. Wonderful experienced teachers with long practice histories. Welcoming, friendly, safe and supportive, even for people like me who are just beginning their yoga journey. Happy i found this studio x
I done classes with Amanda over many years. She is an excellent teacher. If you are a beginner you will be totally looked after so that you learn the building blocks of a lasting yoga practice. If you are an experienced student you will be challenged to approach your practice in new and varied ways - this is the beauty of Amanda being a senior Iyengar yoga teacher. I will continue to practice with Amanda into the future
I was delighted to see that Amanda Hood was in Newcastle, after being her student when she was at Yarraville Yoga. Newcastle Yoga is fabulous and Amanda is as she always was - amazing! Cannot recommend Newcastle Yoga more highly - do yourself a favour and get along to some classes.
