A weekend well spent learning directly from BKS Iyengar’s daughter at the Iyengar Yoga Convention 2025. So many new insights to bring into my teaching 🫶🥰

What a learning experience with Jaki Nett on Saturday. The workshop was a wonderful way to celebrate 50 years of Iyengar Yoga in Scotland.

Jaki's expert anatomical knowledge enhanced and informed our yoga practice. Her fascinating journey over many years with the Iyengars, both BKS and especially Geeta Iyengar brought to life the Iyengar Yoga tradition. Jaki's remarkable poise, ease and energy as an 80 year old woman could not fail to leave an impression on all that were there.

Thank you Jaki Nett

My yoga space for the convention. So grateful they offered it online as I tried to get tickets for London but they sold out so fast! 🧘‍♀️

What an amazing experience being taught by BKS Iyengar’s granddaughter, Abhijata, in Edinburgh today, celebrating 50 years of Iyengar Yoga in Scotland. I’ve done online classes with Abhijata before but never IRL. What a privilege - I learned so much 🙏

How I spent my Sunday…

Informative article about all styles of yoga. It says Iyengar yoga is:

“a very subtle form, focussing on alignment, and comes with props such as belts, blocks and bolsters to help you. It is amazing for posture: you almost feel your inner tectonic plates have shifted into a better place afterwards.”

Would you welcome the health benefits of yoga, but find yourself put off by the spirituality? Cast those doubts aside ...

'Do 15 minutes of yoga to reduce blood pressure' - yoga is recommended in today's Times newspaper as one of the best '12 midlife habits that will have a lasting impact on your health'

Peta Bee writes:
A trial published recently in the Canadian Journal of Cardiology suggests that yoga improves cardiovascular health, including the health of arteries. A group of people with high blood pressure were asked to do 15 minutes of yoga or stretching exercise in addition to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise training five times a week for three months. By the end of the trial both groups had lowered their blood pressure, but the yoga group more significantly, reducing systolic blood pressure by 10 mmHg compared to a reduction of 4 mmHg with regular stretching.

Yoga also lowered resting heart rate and ten-year cardiovascular risk. The lead researcher Paul Poirier of the Quebec Heart and Lung Institute at Laval University, says that yoga is recommended for the management of hypertension in its forms both as an exercise and as stress relief. "Our study shows that structured yoga practices can be a healthier addition to aerobic exercise than simply muscle stretching," he says.
